The above interpretation of Rembrandt's painting depends to some extent on a particular view of the dissection shown in the painting. Since the identification of the dissected muscles is a matter of dispute, this note is appended to justify the view we have adopted on pp. 7-8 above. Our illustration is PI. 9.202 The currently favoured interpretations of the muscles are due to Jacob Meyer.203 Me...

A 2-day-old female Warmblood foal (70 kg) presented with a closed, displaced Salter-Harris type-II fracture of the proximal physis left hind first phalanx. The was repaired four 4.5 mm cortical screws and wire in figure-of-8 pattern applied on lateral medial aspect phalanx, respectively. screw additionally inserted lag-fashion to engage metaphyseal spike. Three days postoperatively, displacemen...

In anesthetized dogs, the vasoconstrictor nerves to the vessels of the hind limb left the spinal cord in the anterior spinal nerve roots from T-10 through L4 levels. Maximal vasoconstrictor responses occurred on stimulation of the T12, T-13, and L-l roots; none occurred on stimulation of roots caudal to L-4. The nerves first entered the lumbar paravertebral chain at or above L-l; the last point...

OBJECTIVE To test a method for performing electrical impedance myography (EIM) in the mouse hind limb for the assessment of disease status in neuromuscular disease models. METHODS An impedance measuring device consisting of a frame with electrodes embedded within an acrylic head was developed. The head was rotatable such that data longitudinal and transverse to the major muscle fiber directio...

Most quadrupeds walk with lateral sequence (LS) gaits, where hind limb touchdowns are followed by ipsilateral forelimb touchdowns. Primates, however, typically walk with diagonal sequence (DS) gaits, where hind limb touchdowns are followed by contralateral forelimb touchdowns. Because the use of DS gaits is nearly ubiquitous among primates, understanding gait selection in primates is critical t...

a5.2 year-old holstein cow was presented with lameness andabnormal weight bearing in a slaughterhouse. widening of theperiople and swelling of the heel area in the lateral claw was morepermanent than the medial claw. vertical fissure (vf) involvingthe coronary band to the middle of the dorsal wall of the medialhind claw was observed. it was also extended to the bearingsurface in the inner surfa...

BACKGROUND Focality of onset of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is not understood. Attempts to implicate physical exercise in the aetiology of ALS have provided inconsistent results. If physical use of a limb were important in defining the site of onset, then handedness might be expected to influence the side of upper limb-onset disease and footedness likewise in lower limb-onset ALS. MET...

Glutaredoxin-1 (Glrx) is a cytosolic enzyme that regulates diverse cellular function by removal of GSH adducts from S-glutathionylated proteins including signaling molecules and transcription factors. Glrx is up-regulated during inflammation and diabetes, and Glrx overexpression inhibits VEGF-induced EC migration. The aim was to investigate the role of up-regulated Glrx in EC angiogenic capacit...
