The theoretical risk of medialisation of the knee joint and the lateral shift of the lower extremity mechanical axis, due to achievement of lengthening along the anatomical axis is present in the process of lengthening with elongation nails and the "lengthening over nail" technique. With this new technique described in this study we aimed to prove that lengthening over nail can be performed along the mechanical axis of the femur. Six lower-limb models were used to perform three different lengthening techniques.

The hypothesis was tested in a laboratory using vivid infidelity scenarios and photographs to induce detailed and sexually oriented imagery of a partner's infidelity.

Background: Gastroschisis (GS) is usually described as an abdominal wall defect, to the right of a normally inserted umbilical cord, without membraneous covering of the extruded organs. However, precise anatomical descriptions are lacking in the literature. Our aims were to provide evidence that allows reconsideration of its current definition, as well as an explanation for prenatal death, based on detailed observation of stillborn fetuses with GS and a review of the literature.

Background/introduction: Dilatation of intercellular space (IS) of esophageal epithelial cells is described as a sensitive early marker for epithelial damage by refluxate. Esophageal epithelia are morphologically subdivided into three layers according to the shape of the cells and nuclei. Meanwhile, ten transmission electron microscopy (TEM) photographs and ten randomly selected measurements per photo from gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) patients have been widely accepted without any theoretical criticism.
