S.I.C.K. Scapula with Clavicle Fractures Case Study Presentation (2013)ctoney
Each semester as an Athletic Training student we are required to take a clinical course. We are assigned to a clinical site and at the end of each semester we must present on an injury we encountered while working with athletes. Taking further interest into the injury we had to do research. I chose a clavicle fracture because working at a small high school I didn't see many injuries. Once evaluating my patient I realized he had S.I.C.K. Scapula (Scapular Malposition on rib cage, Inferior Medial Scapular Winging, Coracoid Tenderness, Scapular Dyskinesis). After realizing this I continued my research on this condition. I found it to be interesting because I hadn't learned about it in my classes at that point.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Slap Tears
1. SLAP Tears: A 2 Pronged Approach to Diagnosis and Treatment Rebecca Zahniser, PA-S, ATC Philadelphia University PA Program Master’s Project: Teaching Track April 22, 2010
A series of biceps provocation tests can be performed to provide additional support to the clinical diagnosis of SLAP (superior labrum anterior-posterior) tears. The shoulder is placed into an abducted and externally rotated position until symptoms are reproduced. The test is considered positive if supination of the forearm reduces symptoms (B), forearm pronation (“walks like an Egyptian”) exacerbates pain (A), or resisted elbow flexion exacerbates pain (C).
A, Anteroposterior view of the shoulder in external rotation. B, Anteroposterior view of the glenohumeral joint (Grashey view). C, Axillary view of the shoulder. D, Scapular Y view of the shoulder. E, Stryker notch view of the shoulder.
Oblique coronal T1-weighted images reveal various types of SLAP lesions. A, Type I SLAP tear. Abnormal signal is noted along the inferior margin of the superior labrum ( arrow ), indicating a degenerative pattern tear with no displaced or unstable fragment noted. B, Type II SLAP tear. An abnormal collection of contrast material ( arrow ) extends into the substance of the superior labrum, indicating a partial avulsion. C, Type III SLAP tear. A displaced bucket-handle fragment ( long arrow ) is seen extending off the inferior aspect of the superior labrum. Contrast ( short arrow ) completely surrounds the avulsed bucket-handle fragment. D, Type IV SLAP tear. A bucket-handle fragment ( long arrow ) is seen extending from the inferior aspect of the superior labrum, involving the biceps anchor ( short arrows ).
1. Arthroscopic photograph of the superior labrum. The 18-gauge spinal needle is used to localize the posterolateral portal and angle to the glenoid rim. It is preferable to establish both portals before repair is begun. 2. Arthroscopic photograph of drilling and placement of the suture anchor through a single arthroscopic guide. Note the appropriate location up on the ridge of the glenoid and angle of approach. 3. Arthroscopic photograph of passage of the anterior anchor's suture through the anterosuperior labrum just in front of the biceps root. Note use of the “bird beak” suture passer to grasp the suture. A probe through the other portal eases capture of the suture. The suture passer is removed and pulls one limb of the suture anchor through the labrum. 4. Arthroscopic photograph of a knot pusher securing the anterior knot. The same sequence of steps is then performed for the posterior anchors. 5. Arthroscopic photograph of a completed SLAP (superior labrum, anterior to posterior) repair. Note in this case that two anchors were placed posterior to the root of the biceps tendon to secure the superior labrum–biceps tendon complex to the superior glenoid.
