The bone of the upper arm (humerus) is the third largest and strongest bone in the human body which is located between the shoulder joint and the elbow joint.The aim of this thesis is to present a multifragmental fracture of the humerus of a 69 year old woman with no neurovascular lesions, with nounion which was treated with an osteosynthesis-adapted plate and individually placed screws. With appropriate physical therapy, the patient has fully recovered and has successfully returned to her everyday activities.Material and methods After the surgical procedure, the 69 year old patient received treatment at the department for physical therapy within GOB 8-mi Septemvri in Skopje. As part of the physical therapy, she received electrotherapy with an IF current and magnetic therapy, kinesiotherapy with active and active assisted exercise, including hydrotherapy with active pool exercises. The success is measured in milimeteres, which often makes this procedure extremely hard for the patient and the therapist.Results The success of the physical treatment of the patient was shown month by month, namely in the first, second and third month of the treatment.Conclusion The Humerus bone must be strong enough to bear the load during lifting, pushing or pulling of objects. The bone of the upper arm is very important, because without this bone we would not be able to control or to use the other parts of the arm.

Single Polypeptide

Titin — the largest protein in the human body — spans half of the muscle sarcomere from the Z-disk to the M-band through a single polypeptide chain. More than 30 000 amino acid residues coded from a single gene (TTN, in humans Q8WZ42) form a long filamentous protein organized in individual globular domains concatenated in tandem. Owing to its location and close interaction with the other muscle filaments, titin is considered the third filament of muscle, after the thick-myosin and the thin-actin filaments.

Introduction. Nowadays, the total hip arthroplasty is a very frequent surgical intervention. In some cases, vascular and nerve injuries may happen around the hip with total hip arthroplasty. Although they are very rare, they may be very dangerous for the patient in some cases. This paper presents a case of a female patient, in whom the nervous fibularis lesion was detected after the total hip arthroplasty, and the occlusion of the iliac femoral artery was revealed later during physical therapy. Case Report. We described a case of a 32-year-old female patient, in whom the nervous fibularis lesion was detected after the total hip arthroplasty. The patient was referred to a ward for physical therapy. On the 19th postoperative day, she felt a vigorous ache and numbness on the left operated leg during stimulation of the paretic fibular musculature. Clinically weak inguinal arterial pulse was detected. After the examination, iliac-femoral occlusion was diagnosed. The patient was referred to the vascular surgeon. In the next few months, she was treated conservatively and eventually underwent surgery. The revascularization was achieved with a satisfactory effect. A year after the total hip replacement, the patient continued with rehabilitation and physical treatment, which lasted one and a half month and had an incomplete functional result - the patient walked with a walking stick and had weak fibular musculature of a severe degree. The vascular status of the leg was good. Conclusion. In this case, neurovascular lesions led to an incomplete functional recovery of the patient and compromised the expected treatment outcome. According to the scoring system used to assess the functionality, the result was marked as poor.

ABSTRACT Paranasal sinus anatomical anomalies with unknown etiology are common. Paranasal sinus-related diseases are associated with so high rate of morbidities, it becomes essential to identify the structure and pathophysiology of the paranasal sinuses. Computed tomography (CT) is a valuable tool in displaying its anatomy, any anatomic variations and diseases. As paranasal sinus development is a complex and long-lasting process, there are great structural variations between individuals. Maxillary and/or frontal sinus aplasia or hypoplasia are more common than the other types. Several degrees and combinations of aplasias and hypoplasias have been reported; however, there is only two case of total paranasal sinus aplasia in the literature. Here, we present the third case of total paranasal sinus aplasia, and the first ever case reported from India. How to cite this article Joshi A, Sundarray C, Sahoo KA.

Abstract A peripheral nerve tuberculoma, the third on record, involved the ulnar nerve, as did the other two. This case report is followed by a discussion of the pathogenesis and diagnosis of this lesion. Its pathogenesis is unclear. Direct infection from a tuberculous sister was disproved, and infection via a local wound is highly unlikely. A previous, silent form of tuberculosis seems to have been the cause.

<p>During routine human cadaveric dissection for the purpose of teaching learning of medical undergraduates in our department, third head of the biceps brachii muscle was found bilaterally in a 67 years old male cadaver. Bilaterally symmetrical third head was found with fleshy proximal attachment on humerus between the insertion of the coracobrachialis and the upper part of the origin of the brachialis. This supernumerary head was deep to the other two heads of biceps and was inserted into the bicipital aponeurosis. A branch of musculocutaneous nerve could be traced upto the third head. Long and short heads of biceps were of usual anatomy.</p>

Experiments were carried out to assess some insecticide modules against major insect pests of rice. Each module consists of a basal application of carbofuran 3G @ 1 kg a.i ha-1 at 20 DAT and Rynaxypyr 20 SC @ 30 g a.i ha-1 at 45 DAT except untreated control. All modules differ with each other only in third treatment which was applied in 65 DAT. The third treatment includes: Imidacloprid 17.8 SL @ 27 g a.i ha-1, Pymetrozine 50 WG @ 150 g a.i ha-1, Triflumezopyrim 106 SC @ 27 g a.i ha-1, Buprofezin 25 SC @ 250 g a.i ha-1; Glamore (Imidacloprid 40+Ethiprole 40% w/w) 80 WG @ 100 g a.i. ha-1, Thiacloprid 24 SC @ 60 g a.i ha-1, Azadirachtin 0.03 EC @ 8 g a.i ha-1, Dinotefuran 20 SG@ 40 g a.i ha-1 and untreated control. All the treated plots recorded significantly lower percent of dead heart, white ear- head caused by stem borer and silver shoot caused by gall midge. Module with Pymetrozine 50 WG @ 150 g a.i ha-1 treated plot recorded significantly higher per cent reduction of plant hoppers (>80% over untreated control) and produced higher grain yield (50.75 qha-1) than the other modules. Among the different treated modules the maximum number of spiders was found in Azadirachtin 0.03 EC @ 8 g a.i ha-1 treated module plot followed by other treatments.
