Belin's ABCD keratoconus classification system allows keratoconus staging based on the criteria of anterior (A) and posterior (B) corneal curvature, thinnest corneal thickness (C), and best spectacle-...
The force in the pencak silat jejag kick is called the moment of force or torque. The force moment is a measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate around the axis where the axis of rotati...
Science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) occupations represent one of the broadest gender gaps in any professional field, with women and girls grossly underrepresented in STEM education...
Gender biases and inequities are prevalent across many scientific fields and biomechanics is likely no exception. While progress has been made to support women in the field, especially at biomechanics...
The relevance of corneal biomechanics and the importance of including it in the clinical assessment of corneal ectasias are being increasingly recognized. The connection between corneal ultrastructure...
Published articles on corneal biomechanics in the specific context of keratoconus were reviewed, based on an electronic search using PubMed, Elsevier, and Science Direct. The search terms used include...
The electronic search revealed more than 500 articles, from which 80 were chosen for this article....
The structural and organizational pattern of the corneal stroma determines its mechanical properties and are responsible for the maintenance of the normal shape and function of the cornea. Changes in ...
To support the effective use of Shore hardness (SH) in research and clinical practice this study investigates whether SH should be interpreted as a measurement of skin or of bulk tissue biomechanics. ...
The human temporomandibular joint, is a ginglymo-arthrodial joint. The articular disk serves as a fibrous, viscoelastic structure that allows force distribution and smooth movement of the joint in its...
Biomechanical cadaveric study....
The aim of this study was to compare the effect of transforaminal endoscopic approaches with open decompression procedures....
Clinical studies have repeatedly highlighted the benefits of endoscopic decompression, however, the biomechanical effects of endoscopic approaches (with and without injury to the disk) have not been s...
Twelve spinal segments originating from four fresh-frozen cadavers were biomechanically tested in a load-controlled endoscopic transforaminal approach study. Segmental range of motion (ROM) after endo...
Vertebral segment ROM was comparable between the two endoscopic transforaminal approaches. However, there was a-statistically nonsignificant-trend for a larger ROM after accessing via the inside-out t...
The transforaminal endoscopic intracanal technique preserves the native ROM of lumbar vertebral segments and shows a trend toward relative biomechanical superiority over the inside-out technique and o...
Intermaxillary elastics are orthodontic resources widely used in various malocclusions. Their main advantages are low cost, easy insertion and removal by patients, and application versatility. As main...
Therefore, the objective of this article is to describe the anchorage preparation, connection methods, time and force of use, and side effects involved in the use of intermaxillary elastics for the tr...
Student engagement in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) through informal outreach events is critical to the current educational pipeline. National Biomechanics Day (NBD) is a STEM outr...
