Abstract

This study aims to define a quantitative measurement method for acetabular version in a standard anteroposterior hip radiograph, assess the intraobserver and interobserver agreements of this method, and compare it with the gold standard computed tomography (CT). Anteroposterior standard hip radiographs and simultaneously taken transverse acetabular CT sections of 78 hips of 39 patients (10 males, 29 females; mean age 60 years; range 40 to 81 years) were used in the study. In standard anteroposterior hip radiographs, "acetabular anterior wall line" was identified as the line between the most lateral edge of the acetabulum and the inferolateral edge of the teardrop. "Acetabular posterior wall line" was identified as the line between the most lateral edge of the subchondral sclerosis and the outmost point of acetabulum posterior lunate surface sclerosis. To assess the reliability of this technique, mentioned angles in 78 hips were measured by two authors independently two weeks apart. Direct radiographic values were compared with the acetabular version measurement values in CT examination. Mean acetabular version angles of 78 hips in plain radiographs and CT were 18.0° (9-25°) and 17.2° (12-25°), respectively. Mean intraobserver m...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
