Karakteristik Anatomi dan Ukuran Tulang Pinggul (Os Coxae) Sapi Bali

Pelvis tersusunolehtiga tulang yaitu, os sacrum, os coccygeus, dan os coxae. Tulang pinggul (os coxae)dibentuk oleh os ilium, os ischium, dan os pubis. Oscoxaememiliki peran dalam reproduksi dan mendukung aktivitas sapi bali seperti berjalan atau menopang tubuh. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mempelajari karakteristik anatomi dan ukuran dari os coxaesapi bali.Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan cara mengamati dan mengukur os coxaesecara langsung. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis secara deskriptif.Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah os coxae sapi bali memiliki bentuk seperti huruf U dan termasuk dalam tulang irregular (bentuk yang tidak beraturan) serta tersusun atas tiga tulang penyusun yaitu os ilium, os ischium, dan os pubis. Os coxaesapi bali memiliki panjang rata-rata os ilium23,7±1,56 cm, os ischium18,63±1,66 cm, dan os pubis15,65±1,77 cm dengan luas permukaan os iliumkanan 199±32,04 cm2dan kiri181±15,50 cm2, os ischiumkanan 172,25±49,19 cm2dan kiri 161,50±44,52 cm2, os pubiskanan 62±14,76 cm2dan kiri 61,50±14,73 cm2. Luas foramen obturatumkanan 33,32±5,08 cm2dan kiri 33,26±4,69 cm2, tebal tuber coxaekanan 1,84±0,27 cm dan kiri 1,74±0,26cm, luas acetabulumkanan dan kiri 36,86±4,83 cm2, kedalaman acetabulumkanan 3,10±0,30 cm dan kiri 3,04±0,39 cm, dan luas facies lunatakanan 21,50±4,47 cm2dan kiri 20±5,59 cm2.

HUBUNGAN MORFOMETRI AMBING TERHADAP PRODUKSI SUSU KUDA DI DAERAH BIMA NUSA TENGGARA BARAT

Objective from this research was to determine the relationship of udder morphometry which consists of the height of the front udder, the height of the rear udder and the circumference ofudder on milk production in the Bima District of West Nusa Tenggara. One of ways to choose a good lactational mare is to pay attention at the shape of the part external body which is udder. The sample had used 32 mares that were in lactation period. Milk production has been measured from the average milk production per day in the lactation period. Milking process in Bima District, West Nusa Tenggara has done in three to four times a day in the span of four to five hours per day. Body length had been measured from os thoracalis to os coxae, chest circumference had been measured from os vertebrae thoracalis to os thoracalis, posterior abdomen of pelvic to os pelvis and the last of os lumbar vetebrae. The research design in this study was survey on every wild mares rancher. Data that has been collected and processed using Multiple Regression with SPSS program version 23th. The result showed that there was a strong relationship between height of rear udder and udder circumference to milk production with back udder with height coefficient of 0.21 (P <0.05) and udder circumference was 0.11 (P <0.05) and equation in Y = 2.423 - 0.398LA + 0.793TAB. However, there is no significant relationship between the height of the front udder and milk production.

Sex Differences in Morphometry of North Indian Acetabula—Forensic and Orthopedic Consideration

Background Acetabulum is a cup-shaped cavity of the hipbone. It constitutes the acetabular part of the hip joint. Its shape and position related to the head of the femur are crucial for the biomechanics of this joint. The knowledge of various acetabular dimensions is essential to diagnose various diseases of hip joint, to monitor patient recovery, to determine stability of the hip joint, to assess acetabular dysplasia, and also to create patient-specific acetabular implants in case of hip arthroplasty. Various parameters of acetabulum differ with respect to age, sex, race, and region. Thus, a region-specific knowledge of the acetabular dimensions will be helpful for surgical reconstruction and sex determination. Materials and Methods The current study was conducted on 100 adult os coxae (male:female = 80:20, right:left = 50:50). The various acetabular dimensions measured were (1) breadth of acetabulum, (2) vertical diameter of acetabulum, (3) maximum depth of acetabulum, (4) linear length of acetabular notch, (5) length of acetabular rim, and (6) total length of acetabular rim with notch. The values were statistically evaluated to find out the sex and side-related differences. Results All the parameters measured were larger in male bones as compared with female bones. Nevertheless, the difference in values was significant only for breadth of acetabulum, vertical diameter of acetabulum, length of acetabular rim, and total length of acetabular rim with notch. Also, the values were more on left side although results were insignificant. Conclusions The results of the present study will provide reference acetabular values for North India region.
