1858BussemakerUC_DarembergC

 

Fragments from the book Bussemaker UC, Daremberg C. Oeuvres d'Oribase. T. III. (1858). The author translates into French from Greek the treatise of Oribasius (c. 325 - c. 403) “Medical Collection”, which talks about ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). The passage mentioning LCF coincides with a fragment of Galen's text from the book “On Bones for Beginners” (Περὶ Ὀστῶν τοῖς Εἰσαγομένοις; De Ossibus ad Tirones): «κοτύλη δέ εστιν εν εκατέρω των ισχίων ευμεγέθης, ισχυροτάτω συνδέσμω συμπεφυκυία τή του μηρού κεφαλή» (1821KühnCG). 


Quote p. 416

[Grc]

…

Κοτύλῃ δὲ ἐστὶν ἐν ἐκατὲρῳ τῶν ἰσχίων εύμεγέθης, ισχυροτάτῳ συδἐσμοῳ συμπεφυκυῖα τῇ τοῦ μηροῦ κεφαλῇ.

862-885Cyril_Methodiu

  On the Book of Genesis translated into Old Slavonic by Cyril and Methodius ( 862-885 ). Presumably, the translators used the Glagolitic alphabet, less likely the Cyrillic alphabet.

1751HallerA

Fragments from the book Haller A. Disputationum anatomicarum selectarum. Vol. VI (1751). The author cites an observation from the work of Saltzmann J, Nicolai HA. Decas observationum illustrium anatomicarum (1725) in which a case of absence of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) from two sides is described. Quote p. 694. [Lat] Observ. VII. Non rationi solummodo sed & experientiae repugnat istorum assertum, qui luxationem ossis femoris fractura facilius contingere asserunt. Quodsi tamen status iste p. n, occurrit, quem praesentibus duobus Medicinae Candidatis dignissimis Dn.

Australopithecus afarensis

  AUSTRALOPITHECUS AFARENSIS In 1735, Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778) placed humans as a species «Homo nosce te ipsum» in the order Anthropomorpha along with monkeys and sloths (1735LinneC). In a publication in 1758, the naturalist transferred humans to the order Primates (1758LinneC). Today, humans and chimpanzees are united in the tribe Hominini, as descended from a common ancestor (2001GrovesCP). It has been established that the chromosome that distinguishes humans from monkeys was formed before 4.5 Ma (2022PoszewieckaB_GambinA). The hominin subfamily Sahelanthropus tchadensis lived in the Republic of Chad (Central Africa) from 7.2±0.31 to 6.8±0.45 Ma (2008LebatardAE_BrunetM; 2012ReynoldsSC_GallagherA). Reconstruction of its musculoskeletal system showed that the creature could have been an upright bipedal primate (2005ZollikoferCP_BrunetM). Fossils of what is probably the first bipedal representative of the hominid family Orrorin tugenensis, lived 6.1-5.7 Ma and still retained adapta...

Human Children. Retelling of Chapter 1

      Short retelling of chapter 1 of the essay: Arkhipov S.V. Human Children: The Origins of Biblical Legends from a Physician's Perspective. Joensuu: Author's Edition, 2025. [In Russian]  Chapter 1. THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD The Bible stands as a remarkable testament to religious and philosophical thought, passed down through the ages with minimal alterations. At its core lies a collection of texts rooted in the sacred writings of Jewish and Samaritan traditions, known as the Torah, meaning "Law" or "Teaching." In its narrowest sense, the Torah comprises the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, collectively called the Tanakh—an acronym derived from the Hebrew terms for "Law/Teaching" (Torah), "Prophets" (Nevi’im), and "Writings" (Ketuvim). Beyond this Written Torah, there exists an Oral Torah, which includes the Mishnah, Talmud, and Midrash, offering interpretations and expansions of the written texts. The Written Torah it...

Classification of Functions of LCF

Version : 20240224 Introduction On the biology, the common meaning of 'function' is that of role, effect, or transformation rule (1994MorenoA_Fern´andezJ). The function of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) is still unknown (2009LampertC) and the ligament itself continues to bewilder and fascinate orthopaedic surgeons (2020Rosinsky_DombBG). The largest collections of opinions on the function of the LCF are contained in our works (2004 Архипов - БалтийскийСВ ; 2018,2023 АрхиповСВ ). The classification of the function of the LCF necessary to determine the directions for further study of this structure, the choice of goals and methods for its surgical recovery. The reconstruction of the LCF without restoring specific functions to solve a clearly defined clinical and biomechanical problem is nothing more than a cosmetic procedure. The proposed classification based on experimental and clinical studies of the author, as well as because of an analysis of literary sources. All the selec...
