23. Nec mirum id, nam quod magis est ab inferiori interiori subintrat acetabulum sub margine cartilaginoso formans ligamentum teres, inter condylos femoris ligamentum ciruciale articulationis cum tibia.

CHAPTER TWO.

Beginning with the Brain as a Principle.

…

23. And this is not surprising, because a round ligament is formed from the lower inner part of the acetabulum under the cartilaginous edge, and between the condyles of the femur there is a cruciate ligament connecting it to the tibia.

Who, When, and Where Wrote the Book of Genesis?

Who, When, and Where Wrote the Book of Genesis? A Medical Hypothesis By Sergey V. Arkhipov, MD, PhD & Lyudmila N. Arkhipova, BSN CONTENT [i] Abstract [ii] Introduction [iii] Egyptian physician [iv] Asian diviner [v] Conclusion [vi] References [vii] Application [i] Abstract The Book of Genesis is an example of an ancient literary text that contains important medical insights. We propose that it was written in northern Egypt in the late 17th century BCE, approximately ten years after the Minoan eruption. The protograph likely emerged from the collaboration between an Asiatic seer, who rose to the rank of an Egyptian official, and an Egyptian physician-encyclopedist. By refining its dating and authorship, this hypothesis positions Genesis as a credible source of medical and historical data, thereby enhancing its value for interdisciplinary research.

New publications of our resource in 2026 The initial phase of collecting data on LCF, accumulated prior to the 20th century, is largely complete. Next, we plan to analyze and synthesize thematic information, adding data from the 20th and 21st centuries. The work will focus primarily on: prevention, diagnosis, arthroscopy, plastic surgery, and endoprosthetics.

Paradox. The necessary is needed by no one

Post in a community for patients after arthroplasty. A question for the patient community from an implant designer (if the Admin allows it). Hello everyone, I have a question regarding Total Hip Replacement (THR). As many of you know, dislocations remain a serious risk after surgery. This often happens because a prosthesis lacks the natural ligament that stabilizes a healthy joint. I have developed an experimental prosthesis designed for significantly higher stability. This anti-dislocation effect is achieved by creating an "internal ligament" within the construct. Theoretically, this would allow patients to bring th...
