Konsep Diagnosis Dan Penatalaksanaan Fraktur Osteoporosis Terkini, I Gusti Ngurah Wien Aryana, Febyan Febyan

Jurnal Penyakit Dalam Indonesia

Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disease that is caused by a decreased amount of bone mass, and microarchitectural damage to bone tissue that affects the bone to break easily. Osteoporosis can be divided into primary and secondary etiologies. Vertebral, hip, distal radius, and proximal humerus are the most common predilection of fracture complication due to osteoporosis. The diagnosis of osteoporotic fractures is established based on the identification of risk factors, general clinical manifestations, specific manifestation from each fracture predilection, and advanced examinations, including radiology imaging and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. The purpose of osteoporotic fractures management in elderly is a stable …

Recurrent Patellar Fracture in a Healthy Collegiate Basketball Player: An Exploration Clinical Case Report

ABSTRACT

Purpose: Patellar fractures only account for approximately 1% of all skeletal injuries. Patellar fractures usually result from direct trauma (i.e. falling on the knee, dashboard injury, etc.), or, less frequently, occur as a combination of direct and indirect mechanism (i.e. receiving a direct blow while contracting the quadriceps). While indirect trauma is the least common mechanism, it usually occurs due to an extensor mechanism failure during eccentric loading such as landing. Method: Case report, Level 3: Exploration Clinical Contribution to the Available Sources of Evidence …

Regeneration And Healing Of Bone And Cartilage In Type-1 And Type-2 Diabetes: The Effects Of Insulin, Sümeyya Akyol, Mehmet Aki̇f Güleç, Hi̇lmi̇ Demi̇ri̇n, Ömer Akyol Jan 2016

Regeneration And Healing Of Bone And Cartilage In Type-1 And Type-2 Diabetes: The Effects Of Insulin, Sümeyya Akyol, Mehmet Aki̇f Güleç, Hi̇lmi̇ Demi̇ri̇n, Ömer Akyol

Turkish Journal of Biology

Increased fragility of long bones and delay in fracture healing in adults as well as skeletal development disorders in children are thought to be associated with endochondral ossification problems. The extracellular matrix (ECM) of cartilage is absorbed during endochondral ossification. During the recovery process from damage, chondrocytes undergo hypertrophy and increase their cell volume; on the other hand, it is also necessary to digest the ECM elements around the cells. Recent research on the proteolytic enzymes in ECM assumed to be responsible for the digestion is connected to proteinases digesting type II collagen and aggrecan. ADAMTS1, 4, and 5 are …

Stress Corrosion And Stress Induced Surface Morphology Of Epitaxial Films, Michael Grinfeld Dec 1995

Stress Corrosion And Stress Induced Surface Morphology Of Epitaxial Films, Michael Grinfeld

Scanning Microscopy

In addition to several new predictions, the general theory of thermodynamic stability of heterogeneous systems with rearrangement has allowed us to understand the roots of several experimental and theoretical results of the past. One of them is an outstanding paper of Asaro and Tiller on stress corrosion cracking by surface diffusion published two decades ago. We compare results of Asaro and Tiller with conclusions of thermodynamic theory of solids with rearrangement and develop some Asaro-Tiller results in the directions dictated by the needs of thin films technology and experiment. A surface diffusion model in a prestressed elastic solid is studied …


The Direct Sensing Of Damage To Ion Implanted Materials, J. S. C. Mckee, M. S. Mathur, G. R. Smith Oct 1993

The Direct Sensing Of Damage To Ion Implanted Materials, J. S. C. Mckee, M. S. Mathur, G. R. Smith

Scanning Microscopy

Material damage caused by the implantation of a high concentration of hydrogenic ions requires regular remote monitoring in order to study the atomic and nuclear reaction processes taking place within each sample. Real time continuous measurements of acoustic emission, X-ray production and emitted particle flux enable processes such as bubble or crack formation, changes in crystalline order, and nuclear fusion reactions can be studied in detail through examination of secondary or associated emission products. Fracturing of a material may generate a unique signature which, when taken in conjunction with time-averaged quantities such as changes in resistivity, surface strain, and induced …


Processing Of Scanning Electron Microscope Images On Basis Of Fast Fourier-Transformation, A. Yu. Sasov, A. A. Shanyavsky Dec 1987

Processing Of Scanning Electron Microscope Images On Basis Of Fast Fourier-Transformation, A. Yu. Sasov, A. A. Shanyavsky

Scanning Microscopy

The solar cell as a combined substrate and detector was used for automated SEM-image analysis. It was noted that an image processing system was created and its operational features are shown in some typical applications. The step size of the fatigue striations was found. The obtained value of the step corresponds to the formula with an accuracy of about 1 per cent. Quantum-mechanical constant of material fracture for aluminum alloys was found to be 𝛥 = 0.22. Two-dimensional periodic analysis was applied to fracture surfaces and a microchannel plate. The integral characteristics of microstructure was determined quantitatively.


Scanning Electron Fractography Of Body Centered Cubic (Bcc) Metals, A. D. Vasilev Jul 1986

Scanning Electron Fractography Of Body Centered Cubic (Bcc) Metals, A. D. Vasilev

Scanning Electron Microscopy

Scanning electron fractography is an inherent part of investigations of factors which determine the mechanical properties of materials and their failure. Transition bcc metals show the widest variety of fracture mechanisms under uniaxial tension.

Brittle fracture is affected by cleavage from various defects - stress concentrators.

In brittle-ductile transition, fracture starts by a "tough" mode but finishes by a brittle one - by cleavage. A fracture mechanism changes after the "tough" crack has reached some critical length. Mechanisms of subcritical growth are of cleavage with relaxation, inter-granular fracture and dimpled ones.

Dimples are observed in ductile fracture. Cleavage is absent. …

Mechanical Properties Of Cheese, Cheese Analogues And Protein Gels In Relation To Composition And Microstructure, M. L. Green, K. R. Langley, R. J. Marshall, B. E. Brooker, A. Willis, J. F. V. Vincent

Food Structure

Samples of commercial Cheddar cheese, experimental Cheddar cheeses made from heated, ultrafiltration-concentrated mllks, processed cheese analogues and whey protein gels of defined composition were examined microscopically and some fracture and deformation properties were determined. Surfaces of cheese prepared by critical point drying and those examined frozen were comparable in microstructure. As the concentration factor of the milk used for experimental c heesemaking increased, the cheese became more resistant to reversible deformation, the work required to cut with a wire or break wf th a hammer increased and the microstructure showed that the protein matrix was coarser. The force to deform …
