The first volume of MSJ-ETC
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Multiple Sclerosis Journal’s (MSJ) open access companion, Multiple Sclerosis JournalExperimental, Translational and Clinical (MSJETC), reached its one-year anniversary in January 2016. MSJ-ETC was launched because of the steadily increasing activity of MSJ and its inability to publish all of the high quality, interesting manuscripts that were received. MSJ-ETC also allowed us the opportunity to publish manuscripts covering a wider range of topics, which might not be suitable for MSJ, including, for example, those focusing on technical developments, interesting studies related to a particularly geographical region, important followup data of previously published studies, and preliminary work which is exciting though not definitive. Importantly, MSJ-ETC’s open access format offers greater flexibility regarding length and the amount of accompanying supporting data.

متن کاملBedside prediction of airway length in adults and children.
BACKGROUND Malpositioning of the endotracheal tube within the airway leads to serious complications such as endobronchial intubation. Prediction of the correct depth of an endotracheal tube is important and should be individualized. The manubriosternal joint (MSJ) is on the same horizontal plane with the tracheal carina. We compared the straight length from the upper incisor to the MSJ in the f...
متن کاملOrthopaedic anatomy of the sternum: A micro-CT study to guide the fixation of sternal fractures
Background: The rise of manubriosternal joint (MSJ) fractures and lack of literature has spurred an interest in surgical fixation. We hypothesize that locations exist within the sternum that will yield best screw purchase and more rigid fixation of sternal fractures. Methods: Nine cadaveric sternums were scanned using micro-CT and reconstructed. The anterior surface length and angle were measur...
