Aim: To evaluate neurosensory disturbance after using separators Vs chisels in bilateral sagittal split osteotomy. Methods: A total of (18 patients) 36 sides indicated for BSSO randomly assigned to 2 equal parallel groups; 9 patients sides) treated (control group) and were by (intervention group). The was assessed each side. Result: After one year follow up separator group showed dysfunction 11...

Excessive fertilization with organic and/or inorganic P amendments to cropland increases the potential risk of P loss to surface waters. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of soil test P level, source, and application method of P amendments on P in runoff following soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. The treatments consisted of two rates of swine (Sus scrofa domestica) liquid...

This study was devoted to verifying the effect of using three different coating materials on draft requirement chisel plow shares. Four types shares with same geometric dimensions (70 mm width, 0.26 rad as lift angle and 45° for cutting angel) were used.  One share kept without its standard iron a control, other coated copper, aluminum stainless steel. Experiments conducted an open air soilbin ...

Damage to cotton by Rotylenchulus reniformis below plow depth was evaluated in a sandy clay loam soil at Weslaco, Texas. In December 1999, 14 holes on 51-cm centers were dug 91 cm deep along the planting bed and adjacent furrow and 2 ml of 1,3-dichloropropene was placed 91, 61, and 30 cm deep as each hole was refilled and packed. This technique eliminated 96%, 81%, and 74% of R. reniformis down...

INTRODUCTION Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is an effective joint-preserving procedure for young adults with developmental dysplasia of the hip. Although PAO provides excellent radiographic and clinical results, it is a technically demanding procedure with a distinct learning curve that requires careful 3D planning and, above all, has a number of potential complications. We therefore developed ...

In order to investigate the eff ect of transition of mounted implements from operation to transport on longitudinal stability of a tractor that works on sloping land, a mathematical model was developed. In this model two operation modes for a mounted chisel plow were considered: penetration of the plow into the soil and depth reduction of it, and the eff ects of transferred forces and torques f...

To the Editor: Osteochondroma, which is the most common benign bone tumor, is an exophytic bone tumor covered by a cap of cartilage. It exists in two clinical settings, as a solitary lesion (solitary osteochondroma) and as a multiple lesion (multiple hereditary exostoses). The most common affected site is the metaphysis around the knee, especially in the distal femur. When pain or neurologic sy...
