in this paper attempts have been done to create a mortar with relatively high uniaxial compressive strength (ucs), easy casting, high flexibility, instant hardening, low cost and easy availability. the main use of this material is to physically model the mechanical behavior of jointed rock-like blocks. the effect of four parameters such as joint roughness coefficient (jrc), bridge length (l), b...

primary musculoskeletal lymphoma presenting as monoarthritis is very rare. less than 20 cases have been reported. the ultrasound appearances have not been reported to date. we present a young female of primary knee lymphoma with synovial involvement presenting as monoarthritis. the ultrasound and mri features are discussed.

Background: Persistent wound leakage after joint arthroplasty is a scantily investigated topic, despite the claimed relation with a higher risk of periprosthetic joint infection. This results in a lack of evidence-based clinical guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of persistent wound leakage after joint arthroplasty. Without such guideline, clinical practice in orthopaedic hospitals vari...

Abstract Studies on stress wave propagation across persistent joints have been conducted extensively. Nevertheless, there exists a consensus that non-persistent are widely and densely distributed, which profound impact in jointed rock masses. A boundary integral equation method is suggested this paper to investigate the characteristics of transmitted field for case single joint. The displacemen...

Background Simple elbow dislocations are a commonly seen joint dislocation involving a sequential disruption of the soft tissue stabilisers without a significant associated fracture. Methods A selective literature search was performed and personal surgical experiences are reported. Results The majority of these injuries can be treated with expedient closed reduction, with the intact bony co...

While most sternoclavicular joint (SCJ) dislocations can be managed non-operatively with closed reduction, persistent or recurrent instability associated with pain or inability to work necessitates operative management [1]. Non-operative management has further been shown to result in symptomatic degenerative changes in the SCJ [2]. Reconstruction is generally indicated in the setting of symptom...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In some patients, for unknown reasons pain persists after joint replacement, especially in the knee. We determined the prevalence of persistent pain following primary hip or knee replacement and its association with disorders of glucose metabolism, metabolic syndrome (MetS), and obesity. PATIENTS AND METHODS The incidence of pain in the operated joint was surveyed 1-2 y...
