Rock bolting has firmly used as the coal mine roof reinforcement in underground coal mine. The bolting effect of fully grouted rebar bolt is closely related to the bolt surface profile. This paper provides an experimental study to confirm that bolt rib internal length has great influence on bolting effect. Pull-out tests were conducted using rebar bolt with different rib spacings of 12, 24, 36 ...

OBJECTIVE Our aim was to evaluate whether high-resolution sonography can provide additional information concerning rib lesions compared with radiography or bone scintigraphy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-eight patients with high-uptake rib lesions seen on bone scintigraphy were selected. Radiography and rib high-resolution sonography were performed on these patients. High-resolution sonography...

Rib osteomyelitis is a rare disease, occurring in ~1% or less of all cases of haematogenous osteomyelitis. During the last century, 58 cases of rib osteomyelitis were reported in the literature, of which, multiple ribs were involved in only five patients. Because of its rarity and non-specific clinical signs, diagnostic of rib osteomyelitis may be delayed. We report a case of multifocal rib ost...

This research study experimentally analyzed the effect of ring and rotor yarns which are 100% cotton spun yarn with 30s Ne count on physical comfort characteristics single jersey, rib, interlock knitted fabrics. The such as fabric Thickness, Tightness factor, Bursting strength, Abrasion resistance, Pilling behavior were studied according to ASTM Standard statistically using Minitab software ANO...

This paper describes a simple method for the recording of rib deformity in idiopathic scoliosis. The relationships have been recorded between the measured rib hump and rib depression deformities and I) the rotation of the vertebral bodies (as measured by the method of Nash and Moe on the standing radiograph); 2) the degree of lateral curvature (as measured by the method of Cobb on the standing ...

Objectives: The aims of this study were to evaluate the efficacy of conservative treatment in patients with and without cervical ribs and Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS). From so many kinds of conservative treatment in literature, we used a multidisciplinary approach (correction of posture, maximizing muscle endurance and power, stretch shorten muscles, massage for trigger points and maximize th...

A cervical rib generally arises from the seventh cervical vertebra and is known as an anomalous accessory rib or “Eve’s rib” [1]. A recent literature survey reported that cervical ribs are present in less than 1% of the normal population and are asymptomatic in about 90% of cases [2]. Complete cervical ribs are fused with the tubercle on the upper aspect of the first thoracic rib, very close to...

diced rib cartilage is an acceptable option in severe nasal deformities. we present our preliminary experience in kamc in nasal septoplasties using the autologous diced costal cartilage. this is a retrospective study of the 22 cases who needed the autologous diced costal cartilage in our centre in 4 years. all our patients needed autologous diced rib cartilages. twelve were wrapped with tempora...

OBJECTIVE Lung cancer located in the paravertebral region occasionally invades the rib head (T3) and not the spine (T4). In such cases, a costotransverse ligament release (CTLR) method may be useful for complete resection without performing a vertebrectomy. METHODS Eighteen patients with lung cancer underwent chest wall resection between 2001 and 2009 at our institutions. Of those, 7 who unde...
