INTRODUCTION Pure lateral elbow dislocation is rare, and a successful closed reduction is even rarer. Reduction can be hindered by swelling, soft tissue interposition or associated fractures. CASE PRESENTATION We present a pure lateral traumatic dislocation of the elbow joint in a 40-year-old man. This was successfully manipulated and reduced in casualty using a modification of the gravity-ai...

Crystalline thin fi lms are increasingly used in semiconductor devices, ferroelectric and ferromagnetic devices, biomedical components, fuel cells, solar cells, and wear-resistant coatings. Given their widespread use, understanding the unique mechanisms that control their properties is critical. This has proven challenging because the properties of thin fi lms do not obey bulk scaling laws. In ...

The shoulder joint has the greatest range of motion of any joint in the body. However, it relies on soft-tissue restraints, including the capsule, ligaments, and musculature, for stability. Therefore, this joint is at the highest risk for dislocation. Thorough knowledge of the shoulder's anatomy as well as classification of dislocations, anesthetic techniques, and reduction maneuvers is crucial...

Abstract: The solution to problem of an orthotropic long cylinder subjected to torsional loading is first obtained by means of separation valuables. The cylinder is twisted by two lateral shear tractions and the ends of the cylinder surface of the cylinder are stress-free. First, the domain under consideration is weakened by an axisymmetric rotational Somigliana ring dislocation. The dislocatio...

PURPOSE Dislocation of the mesh is 1 cause of recurrence after laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (LIHR). Here, we propose a new procedure, the "preperitoneal cavity suction technique," to confirm mesh position during LIHR under a transabdominal preperitoneal approach (TAPP). PATIENTS AND METHODS We developed the "preperitoneal cavity suction technique" during LIHR by TAPP, visualizing the m...

Urgent development of alternative on-farm killing methods for poultry is required following the number restrictions placed on the use of traditional manual cervical dislocation by European Legislation (EU 1099/2009). Alternatives must be proven to be humane and, crucially, practical in commercial settings with multiple users. We assessed the performance and reliability of a novel mechanical cer...

Diffraction-contrast electron tomography was used to analyse the 3D geometry of dislocation microstructure in a zirconium alloy before and after ion irradiation. The material had been strained at room temperature prior After straining, exhibited mainly screw dislocations with Burgers vectors. From analysis habit plane non-screw segments, it deduced that they have glided prismatic planes les...
