RATIONALE We describe a rare case of the isolated tear in the cord-like middle glenohumeral ligament (MGHL) in Buford complex. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report in the English literature about the isolated tear of cord-like MGHL in Buford complex. The present report describes in detail our experience with the diagnosis of isolated tear of the cord-like MGHL in Buford comple...

The understanding of dry eye disease has advanced recently through increasing recognition that the etiology of the condition involves both tear evaporation and insufficient tear production, and that tear film instability and inflammation play roles in the various stages of the disease. Of significance, it has been recognized that lipid layer thickness correlates with tear film stability. The ma...

Dry eye is a common clinical condition diagnosed by cumulative evidence of symptoms and signs. Many new treatments in dry eye are either expensive, invasive, have potential for side effects, or are not easily accessible. In severe dry eye, the ideal modality of treatment to begin with is often not clear as specific molecular disturbances are not evident from just examination of clinical manifes...

The main objective of this project was to investigate the behavior and the damaging effects of hot tear segregations in the continuously cast steel blooms on the final product quality. To achieve this aim, plant data from three different types of steels were used. Investigations using the scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS) probe and metal...

patients and methods seventy patients with chronic partial supraspinatus tears in magnetic resonance imaging were randomized into two groups; prp (n = 35) and pt (n = 35). before the treatment, at the end of the treatment and at the 12th month after the end of the treatment, range of motion (rom), visual analog scale (vas) for pain, disabilities of arm, shoulder and hand questionnaire (dash), n...

A population of Glossina longipalpis studied in the Southern Guinea savanna zone, Ivory Coast, showed marked differences between non-infected and infected females. Each fly was examined for age, reproductive condition, wear and tear, size and nutritional status. Infected flies were generally and sometimes significantly more active with lower fat reserves, residual bloodmeal and higher residual ...

Background: For surgical treatment of symptomatic partial rotator cuff tears, 2 repair techniques, i.e., arthroscopic trans-tendon repair and arthroscopic repair after conversion to full thickness tear, were widely used and satisfactory clinical outcomes have been reported. However, no study has seen for the direct evaluation of repair integrity after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair using seco...

conclusions epidemiologic studies in kabaddi are the need of the hour to assess the burden of this predominantly rural sport and to implement injury prevention programs. our study emphasises the morbidity of knee injuries in kabaddi players of india and the exacting toll it takes on their careers. results the mean duration prior to presentation was 14.4 months. majority of the injuries (88.16%)...

purpose : the main ocular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis is dry eye. lacritin is a secreted glycoprotein of tear and when applied topically in rabbits, it increased the volume of basal tear secretion. so the aim of this study was to compare lacritin level in rheumatoid arthritis (ra) and control group. methods : this cross-sectional study was done on 40 patients with ra and 48 healthy su...
