Because of the diversity of cells and extracellular matrix and the differences in their relative proportions, connective tissues are divided into various categories. Some of these include liquid connective tissues, bones, cartilages, and adipose tissue. The functions of connective tissue also differ dep...
Osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are often difficult to distinguish in the early stage of the disease. The purpose of this study was to explore the similarities and differences between the two diseases through Mendelian randomization (MR) and transcriptome analysis. Methods We first...
Women tend to have different characteristics of specific bones and bony features than men which have been explained by both genetic and environmental factors. Women and men appear to have several differences in collagenous, cartilage, and bone tissues, which may predispose women to certain pathologies...
They observed that male sex and tall height correlated with larger bones and thicker cartilage. Females, on the other hand, had generally smaller bones and lower aspect ratios, steeper mediolateral tibial tilt, and more pronounced patellar ridge. They concluded that sex and height strongly ...
BonesTEMZebrafishTo test whether cartilage bones and dermal bones, which belong to two different units of the vertebrate skeleton, have distinct developmental programs possibly reflected in a different molecular control of their ossification process, we currently investigate the development of some selected...
The lowest local recurrence rate was observed in those treated with en-bloc marginal resection in both men and women. Moreover, the factors affecting local recurrence differed between men and women. After adjusting for age and clinical features, surgical operation and tumor location were the ...
(RA) is a chronic autoimmune systemic inflammatory disease characterized by synovial inflammation and the progressive destruction of joint cartilage and bones significantly reducing health-related quality of life1. The prevalence of RA is approximately threefold higher in women than in men, and the ...
Sex differences in knee anatomy and cartilage degeneration There are observed anatomical differences in cartilage growth and knee structure between sexes, which could contribute to the sex-related differences in cartilage degeneration [10]. The rate of cartilaginous degeneration in an individual is multifa...
A three-dimensional model of the knee is developed to study the interactions between the muscles, ligaments, and bones during activity. The geometry of the... MARCUS,G.,PANDY,... - 《Computer Methods in Biomechanics & Biomedical Engineering》 被引量: 120发表: 1997年 ...
Even a child can tell the difference between Ronnie Coleman and a natural bodybuilder. Big Ron carries five trucks more muscle. But weight alone is not always indicative. One of thetrademarksof fake natural bodybuilders roiding their brains out is that on paper they are quite light, but in...
