“…All these transformations were correlated with the determination of the size of the constituent parts of the germs (radicle and plumule), using a Modelcraft Vernier Caliper of 125 mm. Additionally, the caliper was used taking into account the procedure described in the literature [ 91 ].…”

The microstructural and physicochemical compositions of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), lentil (Lens culinaris Merr.), soybean (Glycine max L.), chickpea (Cicer aretinium L.) and lupine (Lupinus albus) were investigated over 2 and 4 days of germination. Different changes were noticed during microscopic observations (Stereo Microscope, SEM) of the legume seeds subjected to germination, mostly related to the breakages of the seed structure. The germination caused the increase in protein content for bean, lentil, and chickpea and of ash content for lentil, soybean and chickpea. Germination increased the availability of sodium, magnesium, iron, zinc and also the acidity for all legume types. The content of fat decreased for lentil, chickpea, and lupine, whereas the content of carbohydrates and pH decreased for all legume types during the four-day germination period. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic (FT-IR) spectra show that the compositions of germinated seeds were different from the control and varied depending on the type of legume. The multivariate analysis of the data shows close associations between chickpea, lentil, and bean and between lupine and soybean samples during the germination process. Significant negative correlations were obtained between carbohydrate contents and protein, fat and ash at the 0.01 level.

“…Commercially available hip prostheses are made based on European data [22,23]. callipers and ring gauge measurements are more reliable than the CT and X-ray methods for measurement of femoral head diameter in hemiarthroplasty [24].The values in present study shows variations with other studies from different regions. Hence region specific data of present study helps orthopedicians in selecting appropriate prosthesis, to reduce postoperative failure of prosthesis in hemiarthroplasty.…”

Hemiarthroplasty of hip is very common now-a-days in fracture neck of femur. So there is always need of population specific data for making best fit prosthesis to reduce complications following the procedure.Objectives: To measure Femoral Head Diameter, Femoral Neck Length, Femoral Neck Diameter, Femoral Neck Thickness and Cervico-Diaphyseal Angle. To find the correlation between each parameter.Materials and method: 100 dry femur, required for the study, were collected from the Department of Anatomy, Mysore Medical College, Mysore. Measurements were obtained using a digital vernier calliper, a ruler and a protractor. Results: Mean value of Femoral Head Diameter was similar to other Indian studies. Mean value of Cervico-Diaphyseal Angle varied as that of western studies. The values of Femoral Head Diameter show high correlation with the values of Femoral Neck Diameter, Length and Thickness. Conclusion:The regional variations noted in this study will help designing prosthesis of appropriate head, neck and stem size, thus reducing the failure rates in hemiarthroplasty.

“…Furthermore, the findings of this study, looking at spread of forces across the different models imply an anisotropic behavior in bone tissue. This suggests that to avoid structural failure, the in vivo bone will adjust itself to deal with the range of applied loading and the varying stresses generated within the femur [10,11]. This supports Wolff's law, which states that bone is laid down in response to the quantity and quality of the load experienced [3,4,12].…”

The mechanical behavior of a proximal femur under a normal body weight loading was examined. The geometry of the proximal femur was created in a finite element model using 29 reference points measured on the CT scan images of a patient. Four additional sets of measurements were calculated using ± (1) and ± (2) the standard deviation of the original set and the result of models was compared. The stress distribution and the locations of critical normal and shear stress, as well as the effect of the femur geometry which may be most susceptible to failure were examined. The findings of this study demonstrate an inferior distribution of stress in the plus-standard deviation models and indicate less ability to bear weight. The minus-standard deviation models appear to be better suited to bearing weight and indicate a more even distribution of the stresses generated within the proximal femur.
