Correction of Femoral Torsional Deformities by Rotational Guided Growth.

: Femoral torsional malalignment is a common cause of in-toeing and out-toeing in children, often leading to gait disturbances, functional limitations, and increased risk of falls. Traditionally, osteotomy was the only surgical option for correction. A minimally invasive technique known as rotational guided growth (RGG) has recently been introduced to address these malalignments.

Self as the feminine principle.

In analytical psychology, ego is associated with consciousness and the masculine principle. Although the feminine principle generally characterizes the unconscious, it was not assigned a psychic structure equivalent to the ego. This paper proposes a model of the psyche where self and ego are the major modes of psychic experience.

Clinical, psychological and thallium stress studies in patients with chest pain and normal coronary arteries.

The clinical and psychological profiles of 36 consecutive patients with chest pain and normal coronary arteries (study group) were compared to those of 34 patients with chest pain and significant coronary arterial disease (control group). All 70 patients were hospitalized for chest pain at least once prior to coronary angiography. The features of a typical episode of chest pain were similar in the normal coronary arteries and coronary arterial disease groups, but the female patients with normal coronary arteries had a shorter duration of a typical episode of chest pain, and the male patients with normal coronary arteries had a lower frequency of positive effort tests.
