Infiltrating lipoma is a rare variety of lipoma, characterized by an infiltration of the adipose tissue of the muscles. Infiltrating lipomas are usually classified in two groups: intermuscular infiltrating lipoma and intramuscular infiltrating lipoma. Most are acquired, and they usually appear in middle-aged individuals. Exceptionally, they are congenital. In such cases they are not related to ...

The Cidanau Dam, located at Banten Province, Indonesia, has been designed to have a diversion tunnel on the dam’s left abutment divert river water during earth-fill dam construction. is proposed horse-shoe form with 413 m in length and 5 inner diameter. This research aimed determine support systems design of Dam’s based rock mass characterization classification obtained by surface engineering g...

Shoe soles are possible vectors for infectious diseases. Although studies have been performed to assess the prevalence of infectious pathogens on shoe soles and decontamination techniques, no systematic review has ever occurred. The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review of the literature to determine the prevalence of infectious agents on shoe bottoms and possible decontamination...

Plantar forefoot pain is common in older people and is related to increased peak pressures under the foot during gait. Variations in the hardness of the shoe sole may therefore influence both the magnitude of loading under the foot and the perceived comfort of the shoe in this population. The aim of this investigation was to determine the effect of varying shoe sole hardness on plantar pressure...

Background: Studies on how the shoe insole hardness regulate joint stiffness and transfer energy in the lower extremity during jump landing are scarce. The current study aimed to determine the effectiveness of shoe insole changes in joint power and stiffness during landing from jumps. Methods: Fifteen healthy male athletes volunteered to perform jump-landing in various shoe insole conditions. ...

Lipoma of the cutaneous region is very common tumor. Most of cutaneous lipoma arises in the subcutaneous adipose tissue. When the tumor is composed exclusively mature lipocytes, the tumor is referred to as lipoma. When the tumor contains areas of capillary, it is called angiolipoma. When the tumor has rich fibrous tissue, it is called fibrolipoma. When the tumor consisted of spindle cells, it i...

Studies of the Y chromosome in primates, rodents and carnivores provide compelling evidence that the male specific region of Y (MSY) contains functional genes, many of which have specialized roles in spermatogenesis and male-fertility. Little similarity, however, has been found between the gene content and sequence of MSY in different species. This hinders the discovery of species-specific male...

PURPOSE To quantify the effect of unstable shoe wearing on muscle activity and haemodynamic response during standing. METHODS Thirty volunteers were divided into 2 groups: the experimental group wore an unstable shoe for 8 weeks, while the control group used a conventional shoe for the same period. Muscle activity of the medial gastrocnemius, tibialis anterior, rectus femoris and biceps femor...

Despite numerous studies emerging on the human-horse relationship, significant gaps exist in identification of horse and handler factors that influence quality their relationship. Here, we explore key affecting human-animal relationships: number regular handlers an animal has, length relationship with handler, owner changes, familiarity handler. A total 76 horses participated two novel object t...

A 17 years unmarried female presented to Gastroenterology Department of our hospital for nonspecific symptoms of epigastric pain. The Ultrasonographic examination of the patient revealed triple kidney with horseshoe anomaly. She was then referred to us for further evaluation. We further proceed with Intravenous Urography (IVU) which demonstrated a bilateral duplex system in a asymmetrical horse...
