my finger and felt something hard in the tonsil could not detect any fish-bone. I then introduced pair of crocodile forceps, guiding them by my which I kept in position. I found a rent in the tons and that a foreign body was lodged inside this h? ? I grasped one edge of the rent with a toothed f?rce"j and tried to remove the foreign body. After sever** efforts I was successful and I found that ...

Erysipeloid is an acute, bacterial infection of traumatized skin in an individual who was in direct contact with meat or other animal products contaminated with a gram-positive bacillus Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae. We present a case of a 50-year-old housewife whose hobby was fishing, with a reddish, tender patch on the fifth finger and dorsum of the left hand, which developed a week after she ...

finger patterns and ridge-counts in a random sample of iranian muslims consisting of 100 males and 100 females are described. the most common finger patterns found were loops, having a frequency of 54.4% u.l., 3.4% r.l. in males and 51.2% u.l. and 4.8% r.l in females. the frequencies of arches and whorls in both sexes were 4% and 38.5% respectively. bimanual and sex differences were indistinct....

In this research, first, kinematic and dynamic equations of a 4-DOF 3-link robotic finger are derived using Denavit-Hartenberg convention and Lagrange’s formulation. To model the muscles, several springs and dampers are placed between the finger links. Then, two advanced controllers, namely adaptive-robust and adaptive-neural, which can control the robotic finger in presence of parametric uncer...

simultaneous dislocation of both interphalangeal (ip) joints of same finger is a highly uncommon finding. and dislocation of metacarpophalangeal (mcp) joint along with interphalangeal joints of thumb are reported in literatures if, scarcely. here we are reporting the three cases, comprising of double dislocation of ip joints in little finger in two patients and simultaneous mcp and ip joint dis...

We used the modified one finger laparoscopy technique on 100 patients and found it to be successful in 87% of cases. No major complication occurred during or after such operations. However, we think that this technique is accompanied by three important problems: 1) The CO2 gas is lost f1"om the subumbilical incision, 2) A secondary fascial layer is present in some patients, and 3) There i...

the aim of the this work was to determine the finger patterns, finger ridge count (frc), total finger ridge count (tfrc), and asymmetry of finger ridge count (afrc) of an iranian girl (aged 13 years) affected with congenital cutis laxa (ccl).the fingerprints of the first phalanx of both hands were taken by using the standard method (stamp ink). the fingerprints were classified according to the ...

R2 is a non-long-terminal-repeat (LTR) retrotransposon that inserts specifically into 28S rDNA. R2 has been identified in many species of arthropods and three species of chordates. R2 may be even more widely distributed in animals, and its origin may be traceable to early animal evolution. In this study, we identified R2 elements in medaka fish, White Cloud Mountain minnow, Reeves' turtle, hagf...
