Fracture reduction was achieved through indirect manoeuvres and/or with the help of an elevatorium or K-wires used as joysticks for reduction of the shaft-head displacement, and with sharp bone hooks for reduction of the tuberosities.
To draw attention to the cause, Watson is using a driver with a hot-pink shaft and head.
In humans the neck of the femur connects the shaft and head at a 125° angle, which is efficient for walking.
It's amusing, entertaining and even educational to get lost in all of golf's little details: the dozens of different clubs, a glove, a ball marker, tees, green repair tools, interchangeable spikes, custom grips, shaft flexes, head covers, rain gear, global positioning equipment.
The scapular Y-view as a second view permits the assessment of the position of the joint and the relationship between the shaft and head of the humerus.
The full dataset, including post-operative patients, was used to calculate a probability distribution for femoral shaft and head size, as described later in the paper.
Whole body and femoral BMD were measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and biomechanical testing of femurs, and micro-computed tomography (microCT) of the femoral shaft and head, were performed.
One of these – a bedraggled, skinny apology for a horse – slaved for a rag-and-bone man, who would drag it out of its stall each morning, shove it carelessly between the shafts and head out to collect what, by the end of the day, was often a substantial haul.
Major parts of a positive displacement pump are crank-shaft; pump head with low-pressure inlet valves and high-pressure outlet valves; high-pressure plunger conversion set; and pressure regulator valves.
