ITB syndrome is mostly caused by repetitive physical injury to the lateral knee and as much 15-24% of severe injuries on cycling. The overall incidence an iliotibial band 5%-10%, often bilateral. Adolescents young adults are commonly involved, especially those who perform extreme hip movements such runners soccer players.The can be diagnosed appearance a high-intensity signal image-weighted T2 ...

Intrathecal drug delivery systems are becoming an increasingly common modality used by physicians to treat patients. Specifically, chronic spasticity secondary to multiple sclerosis (MS) may be treated with intrathecal baclofen (ITB) therapy when oral antispasmodics do not provide adequate relief. ITB therapy is effective, localizes drug delivery, and does not have the same degree of intolerabl...

Infectious tracheobronchitis (ITB), also known as the kennel cough, is a respiratory syndrome of dogs and usually appears to be contagious among dogs housed in groups. Etiologic agent of ITB is multiple and sometimes complex. In the present study, 68 household dogs showing clinical signs of respiratory infection were examined, and 20 dogs (29.4%) were found to be positive for either of followin...

Abstract Background Sometimes in clinical practice, it is a great challenge to distinguish Crohn's disease (CD) and intestinal tuberculosis (ITB), we conducted this study identify simple useful algorithm for distinguishing them. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical history of patients who were diagnosed as ITB or CD. firstly identified patients, then with CD matched by age, sex, admi...

a 49-year-old man presented with a history of multiple sclerosis, causing him increased tone and spasticity in the lower extremities. this severely affected his ambulation and mobility. Following the titration of oral baclofen and tizanidine to maximum tolerated doses with little impact on his spasticity, the patient agreed to a trial dose of 50 μg of intrathecal baclofen (itB), which was effec...

The conditions of generation of vortical flows in fusion plasma are reviewed with particular interest for the role of the small scale vortices in the intermittency events of the internal transport barriers (ITB). Exact solutions are provided for stationary states.

Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to examine the value Xpert MTB/RIF assay and detection additional Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) species antigens from intestinal tissue samples in differentiating (ITB) Crohn’s disease (CD). Methods Several clinical specimens obtained by either endoscopic biopsy or surgical excision were used for mycobacteriologic solid cultures,Xper...

Closely related to Bordetella pertussis, the cause of “whooping cough” in humans, Bordetella bronchiseptica is a gram negative, aerobic coccobacillus particularly well adapted to colonize the ciliated respiratory epithelium of dogs and cats. Today, this organism is regarded as the principle etiologic agent of canine infectious tracheobronchitis (ITB). In the clinical setting, however, B. bronch...

AIM Little is known about the association of lower extremity structural malalignments, flexibility patterns, generalized laxity, postural control, previous ankle sprain history and the increased risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in females. We hypothesized that females with a history of ACL injury would be more likely to have a history of prior ankle sprain and different structu...

We applied information theory to quantify parameter uncertainty in a groundwater flow model. A number of parameters in groundwater modeling are often used with lack of knowledge of site conditions due to heterogeneity of hydrogeologic properties and limited access to complex geologic structures. The present Information Theory-based (ITb) approach is to adopt entropy as a measure of uncertainty ...
