We reviewed our experience with a modified triple innominate osteotomy for hip instability and limb shortening due to poliomyelitis in 62 adolescent and adult patients, treated from 1973 to 1990. Their ages at surgery ranged from 12 years to 35 years (average 22.3). At a mean follow-up of 4 years (2 to 18) 59 of the patients (95.2%) had substantial improvement in hip stability, and all but one ...

Ten young male participants were tested their psychophysically determined 4-h maximum acceptable weight of lifting (MAWL) of 90-degree asymmetric lifting for three lifting frequencies (1 lift/min, 2 lifts/min, 4 lifts/min) and three lifting containers (50 x 35 x 15 cm, 70 x 35 x 15 cm, 50 x 50 x 15 cm). The results showed that the MAWL decreased with increasing frequency and container width or ...

We compared three types of catheter fixation application for their ability to minimize the incidence and magnitude of epidural catheter movement during labour. Patients were randomized to have their epidural catheter secured by a Tegaderm dressing (group T; n = 35), a Tegaderm dressing plus filter-shoulder fixation (group F; n = 39), or a Niko Epi-Fix dressing (group N; n = 37). The length of c...

, 62 Aterm male neonate born via normal delivery to an AfricanAmerican woman at 39 weeks gestation presented with bilateral corneal clouding. The anthropometric measurements were all < 10% for gestational age (birth weight of 2239 g, head circumference of 31 cm, and length of 46 cm). A cephalhematoma measuring approximately 3 cm × 3 cm was present on right parietal area. Laboratory studies reve...

nitrogen use efficiency and life cycle of root nodules in alfalfa after different mineral fertilization and soil cultivation practices were studied. field trial was conducted in the institute of forage crops, pleven, bulgaria on leached chernozem subsoil type and no irrigation. the next treatments were tested: i) for fertilization as follows: n0p0k0 (control); n60p100k80 (an accepted technology...

The effect of a surface open to air on the ensiling process was investigated in 15 × 60 cm PVC silos in four trials, three with alfalfa (30, 41, and 49% dry matter, DM) and one with whole-plant corn (35% DM). Silos were sampled 1, 2, 5, 7, 14, and 28 d post-filling at 5, 20, 35, and 50 cm from the open surface. At 5 cm, little fermentation occurred as oxygen contents were at 10% or higher, and ...
