Give a skin disease or disorder, explain what causes the disorder, the layers of skin affected, how it may be treated, and the prognosis. Explain the difference in the healing speed of bone versus cartilage injury. What is the process of bone healing after a fracture? Explain the...
Some of the examples are ligaments (to connect bones), tendons (connect bones to body), and cartilage (to give flexibility to the body).Answer and Explanation: Bones are an essential part of the skeletal system that provide many functions to the body, such as: Hematopoiesis: It is the p...
Explain the composition of the skeletal system (bone and cartilage). Explain the structure and function of titin. What is the purpose of the auditory system? Explain the micturition reflex. Describe the structure and the function of lateral horn. Explain the anatomy of the digestive system. Brief...
At the nanoscale level the fibril modulus (slope of stress vs fibril strain; Fig. 2a) increases at high strain rates (by 1158.7% from 0.001/s to 0.05/s, p = 0.00023; Fig. 2b). Fibril strain as a function of tissue strain is shown in Fig. 2c. At low strain rates, fibrillar...
Objective To investigate the effect of arthritis development and progression on the integrity and function of lubricin and the relationship of lubricin to cartilage damage in a rat antigen-induced arthritis model. Methods Arthritis was induced in the right knee joints, using methylated bovine serum ...
data. Future research should be more careful to take into account the possible effects that whole-body mutations can have on relevant non-neural regions, as they can offer alternative explanations for the assayed behaviours. Moreover, a conceptual framework concerning the function of the behaviour ...
Running Rx: Take 10 minutes to visualize the race, and then try not to think about it for the rest of the day. See a movie (avoid Chariots of Fire); read a book (stay away from Born to Run); hang out with a nonrunning friend; do some gentle exercise if you must. ...
Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by changes in turnover of bone, cartilage and connective tissue of the affected joints. Treatment regimens have improved the last few decades; however not all patients respond adequately to treatment. Thus there is a need for deeper understanding...
With microCT, we determined bone matrix mineralization and bone volume fraction as a function of distance from the cartilage in osteochondral plugs from human OA tibia plateaus with varying degrees of cartilage degeneration. In addition, we evaluated whether mechanoregulated bone adaptation in response ...
Explain the difference in the healing speed of bone versus cartilage injury. What is the difference between the epiphyseal plate and the epiphyseal line? Why do people usually lose high-pitched hearing before low-pitched hearing as they age? Additionally, explain the anatomy of the inner ear and...
