Computerised measurement of tibiofemoral alignment.
Tibiofemoral alignment has a direct correlation with the survival of total knee arthroplasty. Traditionally, it has been measured using a goniometer on radiographs. We describe new software which measures this alignment on scanned radiographs by automatically detecting bones in the image. Two surgeons used conventional methods and two clerical officers used the computerised routine to assess 58...
متن کاملMouse Gestation Length Is Genetically Determined
BACKGROUND Preterm birth is an enormous public health problem, affecting over 12% of live births and costing over $26 billion in the United States alone. The causes are complex, but twin studies support the role of genetics in determining gestation length. Despite widespread use of the mouse in studies of the genetics of preterm birth, there have been few studies that actually address the preci...
متن کاملAre psychogenic nonepileptic seizures genetically determined? It is time to explore!
Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) are relatively common occurrences in epilepsy centers [1]. These seizures consist of paroxysmal changes in responsiveness, movements, or behavior that superficially resemble epileptic seizures, but lack a neurobiological origin as in epileptic seizures and are not associated with electrophysiological epileptic changes [1]. It is clear that PNES lack a ne...
متن کاملThe champions' mitochondria: is it genetically determined? A review on mitochondrial DNA and elite athletic performance.
Aerobic ATP generation by the mitochondrial respiratory oxidative phosphorylation system (OXPHOS) is a vital metabolic process for endurance exercise. Notably, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) codifies 13 of the 83 polypeptides implied in the respiratory chain. As such, there is a strong rationale for identifying an association between mtDNA variants and "aerobic" (endurance) exercise phenotypes. The ...
