Patellofemoral pain syndrome. Diagram of the bones of the lower extremity. Rough distribution of areas affected by PFPS highlighted in red: patella and distal femur. Patellofemoral pain syndrome ( PFPS; not to be confused with jumper's knee) is knee pain as a result of problems between the kneecap and the femur. [ 4]
FalconView is an integral part of the Portable Flight Planning Software (PFPS). [1] This software suite includes FalconView, Combat Flight Planning Software (CFPS), Combat Weapon Delivery Software (CWDS), Combat Air Drop Planning Software (CAPS) and several other software packages built by various software contractors.
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances ( PFAS[ 1] or PFASs[ 2]) are a group of synthetic organofluorine chemical compounds that have multiple fluorine atoms attached to an alkyl chain; there are 7 million such chemicals according to PubChem. [ 3] PFAS came into use after the invention of Teflon in 1938 to make fluoropolymer coatings and products ...
Perfluorosulfonic acids. Perfluorosulfonic acids ( PFSAs) are chemical compounds of the formula C n F (2n+1) SO 3 H and thus belong to the family of perfluorinated and polyfluorinated alkyl compounds (PFASs). The simplest example of a perfluorosulfonic acid is the trifluoromethanesulfonic acid. Perfluorosulfonic acids with six or more ...
Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). ?) Perfluoropropanesulfonic acid ( PFPrS) is a PFAS chemical compound having a three-carbon fluorocarbon chain and a sulfonic acid functional group. It has been used within the manufacturing process of aqueous film forming foam (AFFF).
Piriformis syndrome is a condition which is believed to result from nerve compression at the sciatic nerve by the piriformis muscle. [ 2][ 5] It is a specific case of deep gluteal syndrome. [ 6] The largest and most bulky nerve in the human body is the sciatic nerve. Starting at its origin it is 2 cm wide and 0.5 cm thick.
Around the time of alignment, extreme gravitational lensing of the galaxy is observed. A black hole is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light and other electromagnetic waves, is capable of possessing enough energy to escape it. [ 2] Einstein 's theory of general relativity predicts that a sufficiently ...
Clarke's test. In medicine, Clarke's test (also known as the Osmond-Clarke test or patellar grind test) is a component of knee examination which may be used to test for patellofemoral pain syndrome, chondromalacia patellae, patellofemoral arthritis, or anterior knee pain. It is not a standard part of the knee examination but is used to diagnose ...
