1. Skeletal muscles are made up of bundles of fibers called fascicles that are attached to bones via tendons.
2. Tendons are made of collagen fibers that connect muscles to bones and allow muscles to exert forces to cause movement by pulling on bones.
3. Muscles have an origin attachment point on one bone and an insertion attachment point on another bone. When the muscle contracts, it pulls the insertion bone toward the origin bone.
The ankle joint, also known as the talocrural joint, is formed by the articulation of the distal tibia, distal fibula, and talus. It allows hinge-like movement of dorsiflexion and plantarflexion.

Adductor longus, brevis and magnus seen as hypoechoic structures.
Tendons appear as hyperechoic lines.
Bursa seen as anechoic structure.
Bony landmarks like pubis and ischial tuberosity appear hyperechoic.
USG helps to identify muscle tears, tendon injuries and bursitis.
It is a useful tool for dynamic assessment during
This document provides information about skeletal muscle and the appendicular skeleton. It discusses the characteristics of skeletal muscle, including that it is striated and under voluntary control. It describes the bones and joints of the upper and lower limbs, including the pectoral girdle, pelvic girdle, and bones of the arms, legs, hands and feet. It discusses the muscles that act on these limbs and their functions in movement.
The document discusses the muscular system and muscle tissue. It provides details about Moebius syndrome, which involves the absence of cranial nerves causing facial muscle issues. It also describes treatments for this condition. The three main types of muscle tissue are defined as skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. Skeletal muscle tissue structure and components like fascia, tendons, and the layers of connective tissue surrounding fibers are examined.
The document discusses skeletal muscle contraction. It explains that motor neurons attach to skeletal muscles and send messages to muscle fibers via neurotransmitters like acetylcholine at the synapse. When a motor neuron fires, it releases acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft, which binds to receptors on the muscle fiber's membrane at the motor end plate and causes the fiber to contract.
Amphibians such as frogs, toads, and salamanders spend their early life in water and their adult life on land. They have adaptations like camouflage, legs, and lungs that allow them to live on both land and water. However, amphibians are sensitive to environmental changes and facing threats due to habitat loss, pollution, and other factors.
Some fish have unusual adaptations that allow them to breathe air or survive on land. The Australian lungfish and certain gar fish can breathe air with lungs in addition to extracting oxygen from water with gills. The bichir and walking catfish can leave the water and move short distances on land by absorbing oxygen through their skin or through adaptations like tree-like organs growing from their gills.
The document defines and describes various types of movements of the joints and bones in the body. It discusses flexion, extension, hyperextension, abduction, adduction, elevation, depression, protraction, retraction, lateral and medial excursion, circumduction, lateral and medial rotation, supination and pronation, opposition and reposition, dorsiflexion and plantar flexion, and inversion and eversion. For each pair of movements, it provides a concise definition of what each movement is and an example of where it occurs in the body.
The document discusses the shoulder and elbow joints. The shoulder is a ball-and-socket joint with a shallow socket that allows loose movement. It has ligaments including the coracohumeral, glenohumeral, and transverse humeral ligaments. The glenoid labrum is a fibrocartilage rim that deepens the socket. The rotator cuff stabilizes the shoulder. The elbow joint has a capsule that completely encloses the hinge and gliding articulations. It has medial and lateral ligaments and allows for flexion-extension and pronation-supination movements.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
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.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
Our backs are like superheroes, holding us up and helping us move around. But sometimes, even superheroes can get hurt. That’s where slip discs come in.
