abstract   background: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the significance of the q angle with respect to the patella position. we assess the correlation between the q angles (calculated by clinical exam) in different positions and ct indices (with more impression on tttg).   method: atotal number of 68 knee joints of 50 cases entered the study. clinical examination was used to measure q...

In India, mutations in Cytochrome P450 (CYP1B1) are a predominant cause of not only primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) but also involved in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and juvenile onset glaucoma (JOAG). After ethical clearance, 100 POAG patients, 30 primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) patients and 130 ethnically matched controls were recruited in this study. Genomic DNA was is...

conclusions although some of the orthopedic surgeons are not interested to manage these fractures surgically and most of them treat these cases conservatively (casting, etc.), in most displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures, surgical treatment is the method of choice. moreover, in non-surgical treatment the prevalence of these complications among the patients is more and as a result, inev...

This paper presents a Streamline-Upwind Petrov–Galerkin (SUPG) reduced order model (ROM) based on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD). This ROM is investigated theoretically and numerically for convection-dominated convectiondi usion-reaction equations. The SUPG finite element method was used on realistic meshes for computing the snapshots, leading to some noise in the POD data. Numerical ana...
