Synovial Joints Permit Movements of the Skeleton
8 Joints Lecture Presentation by Lori Garrett © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Section 1: Joint Structure and Movement Learning Outcomes 8.1 Contrast the major categories of joints, and explain the relationship between structure and function for each category. 8.2 Describe the basic structure of a synovial joint, and describe common accessory structures and their functions. 8.3 Describe how the anatomical and functional properties of synovial joints permit movements of the skeleton. © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Section 1: Joint Structure and Movement Learning Outcomes (continued) 8.4 Describe flexion/extension, abduction/ adduction, and circumduction movements of the skeleton. 8.5 Describe rotational and special movements of the skeleton. © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Module 8.1: Joints are classified according to structure and movement Joints, or articulations . Locations where two or more bones meet . Only points at which movements of bones can occur • Joints allow mobility while preserving bone strength • Amount of movement allowed is determined by anatomical structure . Categorized • Functionally by amount of motion allowed, or range of motion (ROM) • Structurally by anatomical organization © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Module 8.1: Joint classification Functional classification of joints . Synarthrosis (syn-, together + arthrosis, joint) • No movement allowed • Extremely strong . Amphiarthrosis (amphi-, on both sides) • Little movement allowed (more than synarthrosis) • Much stronger than diarthrosis • Articulating bones connected by collagen fibers or cartilage . Diarthrosis (dia-, through) • Freely movable © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Module 8.1: Joint classification Structural classification of joints .

ISSN 2321-4287 Original Research Article DOI: https://dx.doi.org/10.16965/ijar.2018.208 ANTHROPOMETRIC CORRELATES OF SONOGRAPHICALLY-DETER- MINED NORMAL PORTAL VEIN DIAMETER: RESULTS FROM A STUDY CONDUCTED IN RAJASTHAN, INDIA Nidhi Lal *1, Vivek Lal 2, Sayantani Majumdar 3, Sreya Moitra 4. *1 Demonstrator, College of Medicine & Sagore Datta Medical College, Kolkata, West Bengal, India. 2 National Medical Advisor, German Leprosy & TB Relief Association- India 3 Demonstrator, College of Medicine & Sagore Datta Medical College, Kolkata, West Bengal, India. 4 Assistant Professor, College of Medicine & Sagore Datta Medical College, Kolkata, West Bengal, India. ABSTRACT Background: Dilatation of portal vein is predictive of portal hypertension and therefore requires accurate standards for normal measurements. Despite several studies to determine portal vein diameters, there exist considerable variations across communities. Moreover, body builds have been found to correlate with different diseases. Purpose of study: We conducted a study among 200 normal participants belonging to Rajasthan in order to obtain data on sonographically measured diameters of portal vein and determine the association between portal vein diameters and age, sex, anthropometric measurements like height, weight, chest circumference, circumference at the transpyloric plane, circumference at the umbilicus and circumference at the hip. Results: We found that the mean portal vein diameter assessed ultrasonographically was 10.2 mm (SD 1.47 mm), with diameter ranging from 8.0 mm to 14.5 mm. Although, there was no statistically significant difference in portal vein diameter among the various age groups, a statistically significant difference was found between males and females. -
Anthropometrical Orofacial Measurement in Children from Three to Five Years Old
899 MEDIDAS ANTROPOMÉTRICAS OROFACIAIS EM CRIANÇAS DE TRÊS A CINCO ANOS DE IDADE Anthropometrical orofacial measurement in children from three to five years old Raquel Bossle(1), Mônica Carminatti(1), Bárbara de Lavra-Pinto(1), Renata Franzon (2), Fernando de Borba Araújo (3), Erissandra Gomes(3) RESUMO Objetivo: obter as medidas antropométricas orofaciais em crianças pré-escolares de três a cinco anos e realizar a correlação com idade cronológica, gênero, raça e hábitos orais. Métodos: estudo transversal com 93 crianças selecionadas por meio de amostra de conveniência consecutiva. Os responsáveis responderam a um questionário sobre os hábitos orais e as crianças foram submetidas a uma avaliação odontológica e antropométrica da face. O nível de significância utilizado foi p<0,05. Resultados: as médias das medidas antropométricas orofaciais foram descritas. Houve diferença estatística nas medidas de altura da face (p<0,001), terço médio da face (p<0,001), canto externo do olho até a comissura labial esquerda/direita (p<0,001) e lábio inferior (p=0,015) nas faixas etárias. O gênero masculino apresentou medidas superiores na altura de face (p=0,003), terço inferior da face (p<0,001), lábio superior (p=0,001) e lábio inferior (p<0,001). Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante na altura do lábio superior em sujeitos não brancos (p=0,03). A presença de hábitos orais não influenciou os resultados. O aleitamento materno exclusivo por seis meses influenciou o aumento da medida de terço médio (p=0,022) e da altura da face (p=0,037). Conclusão: as médias descritas neste estudo foram superiores aos padrões encontrados em outros estudos. -

Three bones meet to form your knee joint: your thighbone and one of the (femur), shinbone (tibia), and kneecap (patella). Your patella sits in most complex. front of the joint and provides some protection. It is also vital Articular cartilage. The ends of your thighbone and shinbone are covered with articular cartilage.

Mediante la aplicación de la encuesta Yoshitaka, H. (1978) a 56 estudiantes para detectar signos de fatiga al final de las clases, se encontró que 67,9% expresó sentir tensión muscular en los hombros y la espalda, y 89,3% expresó su necesidad de estirar los músculos. El objetivo de esta investigación fue estimar los parámetros antropométricos de altura poplítea, longitud nalga-poplíteo, altura de codo sentado y la anchura de la cadera de los estudiantes, así como las dimensiones de los escritorios utilizados y el cálculo de las relaciones entre ellos y comparándolos con las recomendaciones internacionales, demostrar que las mesas "tipo" utilizados por la población en estudio tiene desajustes con las medidas -

Materials and Methods: additional information 1.1. Pilot study A pilot study, funded by Asthma UK was undertaken between November 2010-October 2011 to assess feasibility and inform study design prior to undertaking the definitive study (subsequently awarded funding by the Wellcome Trust). Written parental consent was obtained from 201 (59%) of 340 children approached in two London schools. Acceptable spirometry data were available from 136 healthy children of Black- African origin and 21 non-Black children. The pilot study provided valuable experience and information regarding both practical issues, design of questionnaires and potential ways in which to improve consent rates for the definitive study. 1.2. Definitive study: School recruitment and assessments (October 2011 – July 2013) London schools with a high ethnic mix were identified and sampled by education performance within boroughs to ensure a wide range of socio-economic circumstances, prior to seeking approval from Head teachers for recruitment. An all-inclusive strategy was adopted to ensure no child would feel excluded from a study that was being undertaken in the school. Thus children who obtained parental consent in the 2nd year but not the 1st year of study were still eligible to participate. -
