BACKGROUND Poliomyelitis is a neuromuscular disease which causes muscle atrophy, skeletal deformities, and disabilities. Treatment of hip fractures on polio-affect limbs is unique and difficult, since routine fixation methods like nailing may not be suitable due to abnormal skeletal structures. CASE REPORT We report one femoral neck fracture and one subtrochanteric fracture in polio survivors s...

OBJECTIVE In this retrospective study, we evaluated the efficacy of the reverse less invasive plating system (LISS) in the management of subtrochanteric fractures (STF) in elderly patients that are expected to be difficult to nail. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Fifty-five patients with STF were treated from April 2005 to December 2007. Of these, 26 (16 females and 10 males, age >65 years, average 79.8...

PURPOSE To review the outcome of less invasive stabilisation system (LISS) plating for complex distal femoral fractures. METHODS Records of 6 men and 11 women who underwent LISS plating for complex distal femoral fractures from September 2001 to August 2005 were reviewed. One patient who died 12 months after surgery due to a cardiac problem was excluded. The mean age of the remaining patients...

OBJECTIVE Proximal tibia fractures with metaphyseal comminution present a difficult treatment challenge. The Less Invasive Skeletal Stabilization (LISS) internal fixator system has theoretical advantages (minimally invasive fixed angle construct) for the treatment of these injuries. This report presents clinical results of the LISS system for treatment of complex proximal tibia fractures and il...

This study is focused on the spatio-temporal change in shoreline along Chilika coast and migration of tidal inlet lagoon using multi temporal satellite images from year 1972-2019. carried out over decadal analysis with utilization EPR LRR system DSAS model. For this studies Landsat IRS-P6 LISS-III has been used. From it reveals that there one new mouth opening 2019 after occurrence cyclone Fani...

Soil erosion and its future projection play an important role in the changing climatic scenario. An attempt has been made to establish a relationship between NDVI cover-management factor (C-factor) which varies with area crop. IRS LISS III data 23.5 m resolution is used derive precisely correlated C-factor, derived regression equation shows good C-factor value. approach was use this specific fo...

rangelands encompass 55% of iran's territory. monitoring of such resources is inevitable due to dynamic behavior and extremely high extension. scanning of land resources data by satellites facilitates monitoring the rangelands. this research was carried out to study the relationships of vegetation indices derived from irs liss-iii data with vegetation cover of tange sayyad region in the ch...

ecotones are zones of gradual changes from an ecological system to another.ecotones monitoring could be important to find out the reason for changes and limits. inthis research satellite data were used to analyze the ecotone boundary in fars steppicrangelands using irs liss iii and pan data of year 2006. the real vegetation map andecotones prepared through geo-eye images from google earth softw...
