This study explored the radiographic and anatomical differences in normal shoulders between men and women, as well as factors such as race, height, weight, and age. A total of 205 patients with documented normal anatomical radiographs comprised the study population. Five fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon reviewers measured head diameter, humeral head size, head to tuberosity distance, great...

Abstract In order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and defoliation on sunflower, a study was conducted under controlled conditions. Treatments were a combination of three levels of drought ((100, 60 and 30 percent of Field Capacity (FC)) and three levels of defoliation (control, removal of either 4 or 6 leaves from lower part of the plant) laid out, in a Completely Randomized Design w...

It is commonly accepted that the examination and statistical analysis of femoral Anthropometry among different populations reveals a great amount of variation due to the face that the femoral Anthropometry measurements from different countries are likely to be affected by racial variations in diet, heredity, climate and other geographical factors related to life. Anatomists have carried out var...

This study presents a method for fabrication of ultrafine polymeric nanofibers as well as nano/micro particles utilizing centrifugal and electrostatic forces simultaneously. To reduce the diameter and variety of nanofibers produced from solid state polymerized PA66, a unique electrocentrifuge spinning device was utilized with a rotating nozzle and collector, while the fabrication process (spinn...

In this paper, we use the method of independent contrasts to study body size relationships between pocket gophers and their chewing lice, a host-parasite system in which both host and parasite phylogenies are well studied. The evolution of body size of chewing lice appears to be dependent only on the body size of their hosts, which confirms the 1991 findings of Harvey and Keymer. We show that t...

Sex estimation is an important step of postmortem investigation and the femur is a useful bone for sex estimation by using metric analysis method. Even though there have been a reported sex estimation method by using femur in Thais, the temporal change related to time and anthropological data need to be renewed. Thus the aim of this study is to re-evaluate sex estimation by femur in Thais. 97 a...
