BACKGROUND Several studies have investigated plasma androgen levels in women with recurrent miscarriage (RM) with conflicting results on whether an association between hyperandrogenaemia and RM exists. However, none of these studies included sensitive androgen measurements using a large data set. We therefore investigated the free androgen index (FAI) in a large number of women with RM in order...

Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is an increasingly recognized condition, which is believed to contribute to degenerative changes of the hip. This correlation has led to a great deal of interested in diagnosis and treatment of FAI. FAI can be divided into two groups: cam and pincer type impingement. FAI can lead to chondral and labral pathologies, that if left untreated, can progress rapidly ...

some of inherent limitations of accrual accounting make the actual earnings and accounting earnings different. so assessment of reported earnings quality has allocated extensive bulk of accounting studies to itself. the decrease information quality such as earnings quality increases information risk and also the investor’s risk. it’ll increase their expected return. since cost of equity is the ...

This study is about the exploration of accounting system and annual report review process in the context of new public management initiative in Australia. A Government Department in the Australian Capital Territory has been adopted as the field for investigation. Qualitative research methodology was chosen to obtain a better understanding of the phenomena. Case based research method was used in...

OBJECTIVE Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI) and Acetabular Dysplasia are common deformities, which have been implicated as a major cause of hip osteoarthritis (OA). We examined whether these subtle deformities of the hip are associated with the development of radiographic OA and total hip replacement (THR) in women. DESIGN A population-based, longitudinal cohort of 1003 women underwent pelvi...

Hip arthroscopic techniques to repair labral tears and address femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) are evolving. This article discusses the different phases of rehabilitation and the rehabilitation protocol. Although there is evidence to support arthroscopic procedures to address labral tears and FAI, there are few published evidence-based rehabilitation studies dedicated to postoperative rehabi...

Purpose. Running is a common sport and recreational activity in the United States. Due to its dysfunctional implication runners, femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) increasingly recognized as problematic source of anterior hip pain. The purpose this case series was describe an impairment-based physical therapy intervention non-professional runners with FAI.
 Materials methods. Two males, me...

BACKGROUND Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is one factor known to cause pain and osteoarthritis (OA) of the hips. Although secondary OA due to hip dysplasia is common among Japanese populations, primary OA is seldom observed. Concomitantly, FAI is also thought to be uncommon in Japan, but relatively few epidemiological studies have addressed this issue. This study aimed to clarify the preval...

BACKGROUND Symptomatic femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is currently corrected by surgery. However, it is possible that nonsurgical treatment could resolve symptomatic FAI in some patients; thus, uncertainty about the necessity of surgical treatment exists. The current equipoise concerning FAI treatment presents an opportunity to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of surgical and non...
