The bulk architecture of the scaffolds was characterised by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to assess the alignment of both random and aligned electrospun fibres, which were calculated to be 0.15 and 0.66, respectively.
Therefore, we investigated and compared the accuracy of using femoral cortical surfaces (medial and lateral) and tibial canal portions (proximal and central) as references to assess the alignment of the ideal cuts in the coronal plane, for megaprosthetic knee replacement.
To describe the parent-reported prevalence of treatments for attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) among a national sample of children with special health care needs (CSHCN), and assess the alignment of ADHD treatment with current American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines.
We could not assess the alignment of practice (P2), as we did not have exams for all these instructors.
Despite recent disagreement regarding the usefulness of this range [ 11, 12], mechanical limb alignment within ±3° of neutral is most frequently used as an acceptable range to assess the alignment of the lower limb after TKA.
In knee surgery, it is common to assess the alignment of the whole lower extremity with a hip-to-ankle radiograph from which the mechanical axis (MA), the tibio-femoral angle (TFA), and femur angle (FA) are measured.
10 Once selected, the entire process of inspections and audits is intended to assess the alignment or overlap of best practice with actual practice.
In order to assess the alignment and distribution of the steel fibres on the specimen's fracture surface, the total number of fibres visible on it and the number of fibres pulled out on the corresponding opposite sides were counted.
To evaluate stitching quality, a 6 point scoring scheme, which assesses the alignment and continuity of anatomical structures important for disease annotation, is employed by three independent expert pathologists.
