Purpose: The aim of this stud was to compare the clinical and radiological results between Sinus-tarsi (ST) Extended-Lateral (EL) approaches in open reduction internal fixation intra-articular calcaneal fractures.
 Materials Methods: 51 fractures 48 patients surgically treated 2012 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. divided into two groups. Preoperative CT, early postoperative 1st-year ra...

Taste plays a crucial role in the life of honey bees as their survival depends on the collection and intake of nectar and pollen, and other natural products. Here we studied the tarsal taste of honey bees through a series of behavioral and electrophysiological analyses. We characterized responsiveness to various sweet, salty and bitter tastants delivered to gustatory sensilla of the fore tarsi....

The Alon-Tarsi conjecture states that for even n, the number of even latin squares of order n differs from the number of odd latin squares of order n. Zappa [6] found a generalization of this conjecture which makes sense for odd orders. In this note we prove this extended Alon-Tarsi conjecture for prime orders p. By results of Drisko [2] and Zappa [6], this implies that both conjectures are tru...

The silent sinus syndrome (SSS) involves painless facial asymmetry and enophthalmos, which is the result of chronic maxillary sinus atelectasis. In most cases, it is diagnosed clinically, however, using the characteristic imaging features including maxillary sinus outlet obstruction, sinus opacification, and sinus volume loss caused by inward retraction of the sinus walls. Obstruction of the ma...

Sick sinus syndrome is an abnormality involving the generation of the action potential by the sinus node and is characterized by an atrial rate inappropriate for physiological requirements. Manifestations include severe sinus bradycardia, sinus pauses or arrest, sinus node exit block, chronic atrial tachyarrhythmias, alternating periods of atrial bradyarrhythmias and tachyarrhythmias, and inapp...

The effect of digitalis in patients with sinoatrial node dysfunction was studied. Atrial pacing studies were performed while His bundle -electrograms were recorded in fourteen patients with sinus bradyeardia, syncope, or related symptoms. Measurements were repeated after 0.01 mg/kg ouabain, followed in some by 1 mg atropine. Ouabain produced a significant shortening of sinoatrial recovery time,...

Noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium is a rare congenital cardiomyopathy resulting from an arrest in normal endomyocardial embryogenesis. This disease is characterized by numerous and prominent trabeculations and deep intertrabecular recesses. It may be isolated or associated with other congenital heart diseases. The disorder is clinically accompanied by depressed ventricular function, s...
