The success of treatment of bone fracture and defects are based on a proper contact and compression between the bone fracture fragments. Intraoperative manipulations such as bone compression or distractions are generally done in order to achieve this. However, none of the bone plates currently in routine use allow these manipulations after fixation...

Background Radiographic measurements of shortening and vertical displacement in the fractured clavicle are subject to a variety of factors such as patient positioning and projection. The aims of this study were (1) to quantify differences in shortening and vertical displacement in varying patient positions and X-ray projections, (2) to identify the...

Muscle has conventionally been viewed as a motor that converts chemical to kinetic energy in series with a passive spring, but new insights emerge when muscle is viewed as a composite material whose elastic elements are tuned by activation. New evidence demonstrates that calcium-dependent binding of N2A titin to actin increases titin stiffness in a...

Amylose-lipid complex (ALC) was prepared with corn starch and stearic acid and used as a shortening replacement in white pan bread preparation. ALCs were prepared using various concentrations of stearic acid to corn starch (1%, 3%, 5%, and 7%) under different temperatures (55, 65, and 75 °C) and for different durations of time (30, 60, and 120 min)...

Available evidence from clinical trials suggests the replacement of saturated fatty acids with polyunsaturated fatty acids as well as with essential fatty acids to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. Thus, the importance of limiting of saturated fatty acid intake as well as the removal of trans-fatty acids from the diet have also emphasized....

In this paper, we investigate the fundamentals of puncturing and shortening for polar codes, based on binary domination. For punctured and shortened polar codes, we prove that the partial order by binary domination completely determines both incapable bit patterns (by puncturing) and fixed bit patterns (by shortening). In particular, we give a nece...

Management of displaced midshaft clavicle fractures is controversial. Nonoperative treatment can lead to shortening, a risk factor for nonunion and poor functional outcomes. These inferior results have resulted in authors recommending surgical fixation for fractures with significant shortening. The aim of this systematic review was to analyze the e...

Background: Treatment of Kienböck disease is still a clinical challenge. The treatment used in each instance is decided according to stage of the disease at presentation. Good clinical and radiological results could be obtained with partial capitate shortening osteotomy. However, mid-term results of this technique and its effect on lunate revascula...

Shortening of the fractured clavicle is proposed and debated as an indicator for surgical intervention. There is no standardized or uniform method for imaging and measuring shortening. Different methods and techniques can lead to different measured outcomes. However, the question remains whether a difference in measured shortening using a different...

Although shorter telomeres have been associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), it is unclear whether longitudinal change in telomere length is associated with AD progression. To investigate the association of telomere length change with AD diagnosis and progression. In 653 individuals from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) coho...
