We describe entrapment of the common peroneal nerve by a suture after surgical repair of the distal biceps femoris tendon. Complete rupture of the distal biceps femoris tendon of a 16-year-old male athlete was surgically repaired. Postoperative common peroneal nerve palsy was evident, but conservative treatment did not cause any neurological improvement. Reexploration revealed that the common p...

introduction: given the importance of identifying common bile duct diameter in diseases diagnoses and being different in different races, this paper aimed to investigate the relationship between the diameter of the common bile duct and demographic factors and drug addiction in patients who referred to the imaging department of imam reza hospital in birjand during the year 1391-1392. methods: th...

Extensive peripheral nerve injuries can result in the effective paralysis of the entire limb or distal portions of the limb. The major determinant of functional recovery after lesions in the peripheral nervous system is the accurate regeneration of axons to their original target end-organs. We used the mouse femoral nerve as a model to study motor neuron regeneration accuracy in terms of regene...

Low extracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) promotes release of parathyroid hormone (PTH), which acts on multiple organs to maintain overall Ca(2+) balance. In the distal part of the nephron, PTH stimulates active Ca(2+) reabsorption via the adenylyl cyclase-cAMP-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway, but the molecular target of this pathway is unknown. The transient receptor potential vanilloid 5 (TRPV5) chan...

The tarsus is a common etiology of hindlimb lameness in the horse. The distal intertarsal and tarsometatarsal joints are considered the wear and tear joints of the hindlimbs and are a common source of reduced performance. Conformation, such as a sickle hock, may increase the stress across the distal hocks, but occupation and athleticism are the chief culprits involved with increasing the shear ...

Background and Objective: Distal ureterolithiasis is one of the most common urinary tract problems can be accompanied by such symptoms as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, dysuria, frequent urination, hematuria. Case Presentation: The ureteral stone might misdiagnosed in presence atypical symptoms. We reported a 31-year-old man with clinical signs prostatitis, normal laboratory tests, ultrasono...

background geographic information system (gis) software has been used in health care systems to display and analyze spatial pattern of diseases and health services. objectives this study was performed to assess spatial patterns of colon’s pathologic lesions based on the pathologic reports and assess whether it is possible to use gis software in health services. patients and methods archives of ...

abstract: colorectal cancer (crc) is the third most common cancer in men and the second most common cancer in women worldwide. both genetic and epigenetic alterations are common in crc and are the driving force of tumorigenesis. chromosomal instability, microsatellite instability and cpg island methylator phenotype pathways are responsible for genetic instability in colorectal cancer. chromosom...

Background & Aims: Metaphysical distal radius fractures are common fractures account for almost half of the fractures in Orthopaedic Emergencies. According to different studies, 1-6 weeks cast immobilization after distal radius surgery has been recommended. The aim of this study was to compare outcomes and complications of short-term and long-term immobilization treatment methods. Methods: In a...

In this work, a few-layered MoSe2 on Ti3C2Tx MXene (MoSe2/Ti3C2Tx), obtained via simple one-step hydrothermal synthesis and thermal annealing, is investigated for its potential application as an active electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (eNRR) catalyst. The MoSe2/Ti3C2Tx catalyst achieved NH3 yield rate of 56.96 μg h–1 mgcat–1 at −0.50 V vs RHE Faradic efficiency (FE) 14.08% −0.35 with...
