OBJECTIVE to perform the anatomical study, in cadavers, of the corticoperiosteal flap of the medial femoral condyle, based on the medial genicular artery, evaluating challenges in dissection and the topographic patterns. MATERIALS AND METHODS fifteen limbs from eight cadavers were studied, ages ranging from 19 to 74 years old. They were placed at supine position, and a longitudinal incision o...

BACKGROUND The aims of this study were to analyze the anatomic variations of supraorbital foramina/notches in Koreans and to compare the results with those of previous studies examining other races. We evaluated the three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) images of human faces using multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). METHODS A total of 395 adults (232 men and 163 women) were enro...

Abstract We study the concept of continuous mean distance a weighted graph. For connected unweighted graphs, can be defined as arithmetic distances between all pairs vertices. This parameter provides natural measure compactness graph, and has been intensively studied, together with several variants, including its version for graphs. The analog (discrete) is points on edges Despite being very ge...

Background: Discriminant function analysis is the most popular statistical model in sex determination. This method is now becoming the choice for analysis the gender. Femor is important bone used for gender determination. The present study was conducted to determine the gender of individual using femoral head in study population. Materials & Methods: This study was conducted in the department o...

Background and objectives: Essential oils (EOs) of medicinal herbs are prone to degradation by oxidation, heating, or light. Encapsulation of EOs can protect these fragile volatile natural products from degradation. Thymus vulgaris (thyme) is a well-known herb which has been used as food additive as well as medicine since ancient times. Electrospraying is a novel techn...
