Classic descriptions of rib motion during ventilation include three-dimensional movements that are tied to the locomotor pattern. It is still not clear how chest wall and diaphragmatic movements contribute to ventilation. The purpose of this paper was to evaluate how gait affects local thoracic geometry in horses. Hemispherical markers were placed on the skin over the ribs and spine to calculat...

The general expectation of the pearl millet farmers is mainly focused on level superiority newly released hybrids than local standard hybrids, which grown widely. Hence, check RHB-173, RHB-177 and MPMH-17 were used as hybrid. hybrid namely RMS-7 × RIB-3135-18 expressed highest significant heterotic value for grain yield per plant fourassociated traits out nine studied including dry fodder plot ...

background: in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation, mucus production and secretion is high as a result of the endotracheal tube. because endotracheal suction in these patients is essential, chest physiotherapy techniques such as expiratory rib cage compression before endotracheal suctioning can be used as a means to facilitate mobilizing and removing airway secretion and improving alveol...

PURPOSE Rib fractures are the most common skeletal thoracic injuries resulting from blunt chest trauma. Half of the rib fractures are not detected upon a precise physical evaluation and radiographs. Recently ultrasonography (USG) has been investigated to detect rib fractures. But based on literature the usefulness of USG varies widely. This study was conducted to investigate the role of USG in ...

BACKGROUND Traumatic rib fractures can cause chest complications that need further treatment and hospitalization. We hypothesized that an increase in the number of displaced rib fractures will be accompanied by an increase in chest complications. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the trauma registry between January 2013 and May 2015 in a teaching hospital in northeastern Taiwan. Patients ad...

The 12(th) rib syndrome is a disease that causes pain between the upper abdomen and the lower chest. It is assumed that the impinging on the nerves between the ribs causes pain in the lower chest, upper abdomen, and flank. A 74-year-old female patient visited a pain clinic complaining of pain in her back, and left chest wall at a 7 on the 0-10 Numeric Rating scale (NRS). She had a lateral fixat...

BACKGROUND The optimal age at which to initiate for auricular reconstruction is controversial. Rib cartilage growth is closely related to age and determines the feasibility and outcomes of auricular reconstruction. We developed a method to guide the timing of auricular reconstruction in children with microtia ranging in age from 5 to 10 years. METHODS Rib cartilage and the healthy ear were as...

Two-dimensional numerical analysis is conducted to determine the influence of upstream surface modifications a novel clerestory shaped rib turbulator on thermal performance augmentation. The divided into two parts where upper always normal incoming flow and lower surface, which inclined flow. elevation vertical varied using non-dimensional approach length (h/e=0, 0.25, 0.5 0.75), inclination an...

OBJECTIVE To compare intercostal nerve block before and after rib harvest in terms of mean postoperative pain score and mean postoperative tramadol usage. STUDY DESIGN Randomized controlled trial. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY Department of Plastic Surgery, Mayo Hospital, KEMU, Lahore, from January 2011 to July 2012. METHODOLOGY Patients (n = 120) of either gender with ASA class-I and II re...
