My comment on the view on LCF as a shock absorber:

The elastic modulus of rubber is 5-9 MPa, polyethylene film (LDPE) 10-90 MPa. 
The elastic modulus of tendon is 160 MPa (Федорова ВН, Фаустов ЕВ, 2008).
The elastic modulus of LCF under tension reaches 252.8±23.0 MPa (Gao F, Yang Y, Ma H, 2008). Mechanical properties show that under load along the fibrils, this structure is not elastic enough. In my opinion, LCF acts not as a spring, but as a low-stretch cord.

Variants and Phases of LCF Pathology

  Version : 20240418 Classification depending on the combination of factors leading to the pathology of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) VARIANTS OF LCF PATHOLOGY 1. Simple 2. Combined   We subdivide the phases of LCF pathology depending on the time elapsed after exposure. PHASES OF LCF PATHOLOGY 1. Acute 2. Subacute 3. Chronic 4. Permanent 5. Old Acute LCF pathology develops rapidly, sometimes instantaneously, as in the case of trauma. Chronic LCF pathology refers to a gradually progressing process that has started and persisted for a long time. The term subacute phase in LCF pathology is used when the process progresses and resolves within three weeks to four months. Permanent LCF pathology implies continuous periodic impact leading to pathological changes. An example of permanent pathology is walking with altered physical properties of the densely formed connective tissue comprising the LCF stroma. Old LCF pathology denotes a pathological change that...

  Fragments from the book Jamain A. Nouveau traité élémentaire d'anatomie descriptive (1853). The author briefly describes the anatomy of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF), noting its three points of proximal attachment. The text is prepared for machine translation using a service built into the blog from Google or your web browser.   Quote p. 14 4 Surfaces articulaires. Du côté du fémur, tête hémisphérique encroûtée de cartilage et présentant à sa partie supérieure et interne une dépression qui loge un ligament inter-articulaire. Du côté de l'os iliaque , cavité cotyloïde, profonde , échancrée sur sa circonférence, surtout à sa partie antérieure et inférieure, et présentant dans sa partie profonde une dépression remplie de tissu adipeux rougeâtre, improprement appelé glande cotyloïdienne. Cette cavité est encroûtée de cartilage, excepté dans la dépression dont nous venons de parler. Quote p. 145 2. Ligamentinter-articulaire (fig. 12, 2, 3), appelé encore ligament r...

Human Children. Retelling of Chapter 5

  Short retelling of chapter 5 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 5.  ADAM AND EVE The Book of Genesis narrates the story of a tribe founded by Adam and Eve, described as the "mother of all living." From a genetic perspective, they are depicted as siblings, with an age difference of 18–25 years. According to the biblical epic, they formed humanity’s first family, sustaining themselves on pre-existing fruits and seeds. Their initial home was the "garden in Eden," located "in the east" relative to the narrator. The text identifies geographic markers for Eden’s location: lands like "Asshur," "Cush," and "Havilah," and rivers named "Pishon," "Gihon," "Hiddekel," and "Phrath." The narrator also notes the region’s economic value, mentioning "gold," ...
