We evaluated lateral pterygoid muscle volume in closed and open mouth positions in association with anterior disc displacement, effusion and abnormal articular disc shape from three-dimensional reformations of MRI. A total of 24 MRI of a sample (15 females, 9 males) aged 19-64 years (37.2 years±11.4) were assessed. Segmentation and volumetric assessment of the total, upper and lower heads of th...

The purpose of this study was to describe biomechanical parameters of head, upper and lower body extremities during a straight right punch throw related to performance and injury mechanism. Subjects were eight elite right-handed male (age 20.4 ± 2.1yrs height 177.4 ± 8.5 cm mass 70.4 ± 16.8 kg) amateur boxers. 3D motion analysis was used to assess the kinematics of the right side extremities ...

– When a ferromagnet is in proximity to an antiferromagnet, lateral length scales such as the respective magnetic domain sizes drastically affect the exchange bias. Bilayers of FeF2 and either Ni, Co or Fe are studied using SQUID and spatially resolved MOKE. When the antiferromagnetic domains are larger than or comparable to the ferromagnetic domains, a local, non-averaging exchange bias is obs...

: Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) following radiation therapy is a much-feared complication of the treatment head and neck cancer. Free flap reconstruction in ORN patient has specific challenges for surgeon. From 2014 to 2020 Head Neck Microvascular unit Oral Maxillofacial Surgery Division at Jackson Health/University Miami treated 149 patients with free reconstruction. The fibula (n=65) anterior late...
