It has been generally accepted that residual cartilage and subchondral bone has to be removed in order to get bony fusion in arthrodeses.

More than 25 rheumatoid patients with functional alignment in the ankle joint have subsequ

Methods for sampling and determination of four organic acid anhydrides are described. The methods were validated in a standard atmosphere and in the work environment. Hexahydrophthalic anhydride (HHPA), methylhexahydrophthalic anhydride (MHHPA), tetrahydrophthalic anhydride (THPA) and octenylsuccinic anhydride (OSA) were sampled using Tenax and Amberlite XAD-2 solid sorbents and determined by GC w

As reported in several studies, even though properly designed, it is possible that groin systems not only cause down-drift beaches to erode, but also contribute to the generation of rip currents.
