Compartment syndrome, stiff joints, and diabetic cheiroarthropathy.
Sir: The abnormality in collagen metabolism in diabetes is characterised by unusually stable, excessively cross linked fibrils. Nonenzymatic glycosylation may be partly responsible for the stiffness of diabetic collagen,' and such changes may relate to development of the microvascular complications of nephropathy and retinopathy as well as cheiroarthropathy. Microvascular complications occur mo...
متن کاملThe Treatment of Stiff Joints
A man, woman, or child breaks an arm or sustains an injury in or in the neighbourhood of a joint. After a longer or shorter period of immobilisation according to the therapeutic leanings of the particular surgeon or physician who has been called in to the sufferer, a degree of stiffness sets in in the neighbourhood of the joint. The time is now ripe for the medical attendant to do what he calls...
متن کاملStiff skin syndrome - Case report Síndrome stiff skin - Relato de caso
Stiff skin syndrome is a rare scleroderma-like disorder of unknown etiology characterized by stone-hard indurations of skin, mild hypertrichosis and limited joint mobility. No effective treatment has yet been found. Exercises and rehabilitative therapy are important in maintaining the patient's quality of life. The authors present a case of a two-year-old boy with progressive skin hardening sin...
متن کاملAnalysis of tongue and groove joints for thick laminates
A finite element evaluation of local stresses in the adhesive and adherends is presented for a tongue-and-groove joint of a homogenized thick composite laminate to steel plate. The quasi-isotropic laminate is made of glass fabric/vinyl ester plies. Most results are obtained for elastic response of the Dexter-Hysol 9338 adhesive that was used in recent experiments (Compos Sci Technol 61 (2001) 1...
متن کاملLinear-Time Dynamics of Characters with Stiff Joints
Characters, like other articulated objects and structures, are typically simulated using articulated dynamics algorithms. There are efficient linear-time algorithms for the simulation of open-chain articulated bodies, but complexity grows notably under additional constraints such as joint limits, loops or contact, or if the bodies undergo stiff joint forces. This paper presents a linear-time al...
