Determination of Carrying Angle of Elbow Among Adult Pakistani Population

THE NORMAL CARRYING ANGLE OF THE ELBOW IN SHIRAZ

The normal carrying angle in Shiraz population was measured on the basis of sex and age. The right elbow angle of 4266 cases was examined from birth to 30 years old. This study found the carrying angle in 2540 females to be 7.20 (range 2-19) and in 1726 males to be 6.40 (range 2-11), a 0.80 difference. A significant difference (p= 0.05) was found in relation to age. There is a gradual incr...

Bilateral Variability of the Quadriceps Angle (Q angle) in an Adult Indian Population

Objective(s) The objective of this study was to document and explain bilateral differences in the Q angle. Materials and Methods Two hundred limbs of healthy adult Indian volunteers were studied. The Q angle was measured using a goniometric method with the subjects supine, quadriceps relaxed and lower limbs in neutral rotation. The relative lateral placement of the tibial tuberosity with res...

Genetic Polymorphism of CYP2C19 in Pakistani Population

CYP2C19 polymorphism is associated with pretreatment drug response prediction, metabolism, and disposition. Pakistan consists of a population comprising of various ethnic groups residing in different regions of the country each claiming diverse ethnic origins. The identification of CYP450 genotypic composition of these populations is therefore necessary to avoid adverse drug reactions in these ...
