The anatomical snuffbox is a triangular depression on the back of the hand near the thumb. It contains the radial artery and nerve as well as the scaphoid bone. Evaluating the snuffbox is clinically important as the physician can palpate the scaphoid bone within it to check for fractures or feel the pulse of the radial artery. A retinaculum is a band of thick connective tissue that holds tendons in place to provide stability. The document then discusses the wrist, nerve supply of the hand, and thanks the reader.

Wrist Joint
The wrist joint, or radiocarpal joint, connects the forearm to the hand. It is formed by the distal end of the radius articulating with the proximal row of carpal bones. The ulna does not directly articulate with the wrist joint. The wrist joint allows for flexion, extension, adduction and abduction through movement along two axes. Common injuries to the wrist joint include fractures of the scaphoid, anterior dislocation of the lunate, and Colles' fractures of the radius.
ANATOMICAL SNUFF BOX.pptx
The anatomical snuffbox is a triangular depression on the lateral side of the wrist. It contains important structures like the radial artery and radial nerve branch. The snuffbox has three borders - the ulnar border formed by the extensor pollicis longus tendon, the radial border formed by the extensor pollicis brevis and abductor pollicis longus tendons, and the proximal border formed by the styloid process of the radius. The floor is formed by the scaphoid and trapezoid carpal bones, while the skin forms the roof. Fractures of the scaphoid bone in the snuffbox from falls on an outstretched hand can disrupt blood flow and
Wrist Joint.....2021.pdf
The wrist joint is a complex biaxial joint between the carpal bones and the distal end of the radius. It allows for flexion/extension and abduction/adduction motions. Key structures include the articular surfaces of the radius, triangular articular disc, and proximal carpal bones. The joint is surrounded by ligaments including the radial and ulnar collateral ligaments. Common injuries include fractures of the scaphoid bone and Colles' fracture of the radius. Ganglions also sometimes develop as cysts near the joint.

Radial Forearm Flap
It is one of basic very versatile flaps in plastic surgery with a lot of indications in reconstruction.
Radial Forearm Flap - Hand Surgery
The radial forearm flap is based on the radial artery and its venae comitantes. It can be harvested as a fasciocutaneous or osteocutaneous flap with a long vascular pedicle. The radial forearm flap is commonly used in reconstructive surgery due to its reliable vascular anatomy, long pedicle length allowing for versatile positioning, and ability to provide a hairless skin match. Potential donor site complications include functional impairment and need for skin grafting or local flaps.

Variant Flexor Carpi Ulnaris Muscle and Variant Course of Ulnar Artery in For...
The document describes a case study of an anatomical variation observed during a routine dissection of a cadaver's right forearm. The variation involved separate humeral and ulnar heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle. Notably, the bulky ulnar head separated the ulnar artery and nerve. The humeral and ulnar heads fused just before their insertion and the ulnar artery came into contact with the ulnar nerve in the lower forearm. The course and distribution of the ulnar artery and nerve were otherwise normal. This variation has clinical significance for procedures involving the forearm and hand.
Ax2641084110
1) The document describes a case where a cadaver was found to have a variant anatomy of the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle and ulnar artery.
2) Specifically, the ulnar head of the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle was more prominent and separated the ulnar artery and nerve. The humeral and ulnar heads of the muscle were also separated by the ulnar nerve.
3) This variation could be clinically significant for plastic surgeons performing flap surgeries and surgeons dealing with cubital tunnel syndrome where the ulnar nerve passes. Knowledge of unusual anatomy in the forearm is important for surgical planning and interpretation of imaging studies.
forearm.ppt

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.
