ABOUT THE AUTHOR

The blog is managed and administered by Sergey Vasilyevich Arkhipov, a candidate of medical sciences, general surgeon, and orthopedic traumatologist (orthopedic surgeon) of the highest qualification, as well as a medical expert.

The author graduated from the State Medical Institute in 1992 (Smolensk, Russia) and defended his dissertation at the Russian University of Friendship of Peoples (Moscow). He studied at the Central Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics (Moscow) and the Russian Research Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics (St. Petersburg). He also had internships at the Hannover Medical School (Medizinischen Hochschule Hannover).

Sergey Arkhipov has experience working in the orthopedic department of a regional clinical hospital, trauma departments of major city medical institutions, a regional burn center, a trauma center, a surgical department of a district hospital, state polyclinics, and private medical clinics. He has been involved in research activities, serving as a practicing physician, department head, deputy chief physician for clinical-expert work, consultant in the field of traumatology and orthopedics, medical expert, and senior researcher at the "Biomechanics and Mechatronics" laboratory (N.I. Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University). Sergey Arkhipov worked in the laboratory of "Clinical Physiology and Biomechanics" at the Federal State Budgetary Institution National Medical Research Center named after N.N. Priorov (Central Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics). Currently, he is an independent scientist.

He has been awarded the Honorary Certificate of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, the Gratitude of the Mayor of Moscow, certificates of Heads of Administrations, and chief physicians of medical institutions. Sergey Arkhipov was the winner of the regional television contest "Person of the Year – 2004" in the category of "Discovery" and a laureate of the contest "Man – Event – Time." in 2001.

The author created a series of original mechanical models of the human hip joint, designed a quadripedipulatory zoomorphic walking platform, and a prototype of an anthropomorphic walking mechanism. He proposed a family of artificial joints with analogs of ligaments. Sergey Arkhipov refined the concepts of the biomechanics of the hip joint in vertical poses and during walking. He established the role of the ligament of the head of femur, ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF), in the pathogenesis of coxarthrosis and formulated a previously unknown general biological regularity – "The Law of Bioinduction". The author suggested a mathematical apparatus for calculating the dynamics of biological processes in living systems.

Sergey Arkhipov the author of six monographs, a dissertation for a candidate of medical sciences, three patents, and eight positive decisions on patent issuance, sixty articles and conference abstracts, forty patent applications. For more accurate positioning in the scientific community, he used the pseudonym S.V. Arkhipov-Baltiysky in some publications.

Scientific interests of the author include: the significance of the LCF for the musculoskeletal system; diagnosis, and treatment of diseases of the hip joint; morphomechanics; biomechanics of human and animal locomotion; modeling of joint function; development of artificial joints, and methods of hip ligament repair; biomorphic robotics.

With sincere respect to you,

Sergey Arkhipov

Vertebrates

VERTEBRATES According to the molecular clock, a specific method for dating phylogenetic events, vertebrates (Vertebrata) separated from arthropods (Arthropoda) 976±97 Ma (2004HedgesSB_ShoeJL). The latter began to dominate in species diversity with the Cambrian burst of radiation, which occurred 520 Ma (2010EdgecombeGD). This ratio in the fauna of the Earth is still preserved. Approximately 525 Ma, the phylum Chordates separated from the group of bilaterally symmetrical animals (1995ChenJY_ZhouGQ). In turn, the evolution of chordate organisms led to the formation of the first vertebrates at least 500 Ma, from which the jawed mouths 450-400 Ma descended, becoming the ancestors of the placoderms or "armored" fish (Placodermi) (1979 НаумовНП _ КарташевНН ).

Fragment of the book Blandin PF. Nouveaux éléments d'anatomie descriptive (1838). The author describes the anatomy and mechanical properties of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). The text is prepared for machine translation using a service built into the blog from Google or your web browser. Quote p. 307 Ligament inter-articulaire, ligament intérieur, (ligament rond desauteurs). Ce ligament occupe l'intérieur de l'articulation, étendu de la tête du fémur à la cavité cotyloïde. Il a plutôt la forme d'un triangle à base appuyée sur la cavité cotyloïde que celle d'un faisceau arrondi, comme l'indiquerait sa dénomination de ligament rond. Il se fixe, supérieurement, sur l'enfoncement du sommet de la tète du fémur, et en bas, sur les deux bords de l'échancrure interne de la cavité cotyloïde, au moyen de deux faisceaux distincts réunis par la membrane synoviale. Arrondi vers le fémur, le ligament inter-articulaire est aplati du côté de l'os cox...

Fragments of the article Schwartz DL, Haller JAJr. Open anterior hip dislocation with femoral vessel transection in a child (1974). Authors report damage to the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). Summary This is a case report of a 5-year-old girl who sustained an open anterior hip dislocation with complete transection of the femoral artery and vein following blunt trauma. Her preoperative evaluation and operative care are described, along with a 1-year follow-up. Major vascular damage in children with blunt trauma is emphasized. Quote 1. 3) The left femoral head and its attached ligamentum teres were avulsed from deep within the acetabulum, and protruded through the mid-portion of the gaping groin wound (Fig. 2). Quote 2. After removal of large segments of free bone chips and debridement of obviously crushed muscle, the femoral head and its attached ligamentum teres were reduced.
