    The gluteus maximus arises from the posterior gluteal line of the inner upper ilium, and the rough portion of bone including the crest, immediately above and behind it; from the posterior surface of the lower part of the sacrum and the side of the coccyx; from the aponeurosis of the erector spinae (lumbodorsal fascia), the sacrotuberous ligament, and the fascia covering the gluteus medius.

  5. Landmark detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landmark_detection

    The purpose of landmark detection in fashion images is for classification purposes. This aids in the retrieval of images with specified features from a database or general search. An example of a fashion landmark is the location of the hemline of a dress. Fashion landmark detection is particularly difficult due to the extreme deformation that ...

  6. Deep gluteal syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_gluteal_syndrome

    The image-guidance is to increase accuracy of the needle placement and visualize the spread of the injected material. [3] Ultrasound-guided injections are the gold standard for differentiating deep gluteal syndrome from other sources of pain. [9] Diagnostic injections function in a similar way to deep palpation.

  7. Superior gluteal nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_gluteal_nerve

    In normal gait, the small gluteal muscles on the stance side can stabilize the pelvis in the coronal plane.Weakness or paralysis of these muscles caused by a damaged superior gluteal nerve can result in a weak abduction in the affected hip joint.

  8. Injection site reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injection_site_reaction

    For many biologics (e.g., monoclonal antibodies), injection site reactions are the most common adverse effect of the drug, and have been reported to have an incidence rate of 0.5–40%. [ 2 ] In trials of subcutaneous administration of oligonucleotides , between 22 and 100% of subjects developed reactions depending on the oligonucleotide.

  9. Shoulder injury related to vaccine administration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder_injury_related_to...

    SIRVA is caused by improper insertion of the needle used in injections. It is "a preventable occurrence caused by the injection of a vaccine into the shoulder capsule rather than the deltoid muscle. As a result, inflammation of the shoulder structures causes patients to experience pain, a decreased range of motion, and a decreased quality of life."
