To understand how the mechanical properties of tissues emerge from interactions of multiple cells, we measure traction stresses of cohesive colonies of 1-27 cells adherent to soft substrates. We find that traction stresses are generally localized at the periphery of the colony and the total traction force scales with the colony radius. For large colony sizes, the scaling appears to approach lin...
Background and Purpose: Cervical traction has been used for more than 50 years for the treatment of cervical disk pathology. However, there is a paucity of research in regard to the use of postoperative traction following surgery. The purpose of this case series is to describe evidence-based treatment using cervical traction for herniated nucleus pulposus (HNP) after anterior cervical discectom...
it is well established that the seismic ground response of surface topographies may differ from those of free field motion during earthquakes. complex nature of seismic wave scattering by topographical structures can only be solved accurately and economically using advanced numerical methods under realistic conditions. among the numerical methods, the boundary element is a powerful numerical te...
Open reduction and internal fixation is used to treat complex acetabular fractures. Traction on the femur is necessary to reduce the acetabulum and is accomplished by surgical assistants or with mechanical devices. To overcome the disadvantages of various traction methods, the author designed a simple, novel traction device that can be used on an ordinary orthopedic or radiolucent operating tab...
introduction mild intermittent asthma is common in children and viral infections are responsible for the majority of exacerbations. as leukotrienes are potent inflammatory mediators, some studies have shown that montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, may be effective on reduction of asthma symptom. to determine whether a short course of montelukast in asthmatic children with common col...
STUDY DESIGN Randomized clinical trial. OBJECTIVES To examine the effectiveness of cervical traction in addition to exercise for specific subgroups of patients with neck pain. BACKGROUND Cervical traction is frequently used, but its effectiveness has not been adequately examined. Existing studies have failed to target patients most likely to respond. Traction is typically recommended for pa...
the production of experimentally induced drug resistance in the laboratory provides valuable opportunities for investigators to study the nature and genetics of drug resistance mechanisms to a given agent, patterns of cross resistance and the mode of action of drugs. at the beginning the continuous drug exposure was chosen as a standard procedure to produce drug— resistant strains of p. falcipa...
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to analyze cervical muscle activity at different traction forces of an air-inflatable neck traction device. [Subjects] Eighteen males participated in this study. [Methods] The subjects put on an air-inflatable neck traction device and the traction forces administered were 40, 80, and 120 mmHg. The electromyography (EMG) signals of the splenius capitis, an...
METHODS 17 physicians, experienced in transvenous lead removal, performed a lead extraction manoeuvre of an ICD lead on a torso phantom. They were advised to stop traction only when further traction would be considered as harmful to the patient or when--based on their experience--a change in the extraction strategy was indicated. Traction forces were recorded with a digital precision gauge. R...
This study describes the development of a cervical traction therapy simulation model that evaluates two types of the traction positions, namely the sitting position and the inclined position. An anatomically correct human skeleton model and two mechanical traction device models were constructed in simulations using a physics engine. The anterior and posterior intervertebral separations were mea...
