  2. Secondary cell wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_cell_wall

    The direction of the microfibrils is called microfibril angle (MFA). In the secondary cell wall of fibres of trees a low microfibril angle is found in the S2-layer, while S1 and S3-layers show a higher MFA . However, the MFA can also change depending on the loads on the tissue. It has been shown that in reaction wood the MFA in S2-layer can ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperforate_anus

    For children who have a poor outcome for continence and constipation from the initial surgery, further surgery to better establish the angle between the anus and the rectum may improve continence and, for those with a large rectum, surgery to remove that dilated segment may significantly improve the bowel control for the patient.

  4. Microfibril - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microfibril

    A microfibril is a very fine fibril, or fiber-like strand, consisting of glycoproteins and cellulose.It is usually, but not always, used as a general term in describing the structure of protein fiber, e.g. hair and sperm tail.

    Affected are preschool and school-age children with a male predominance. [2] In one study, the median age was 6 years (range 2–13.2 years). [ 1 ] It has been estimated that BACM has an incidence of 2.69 cases per 100,000 children (<18 years) during epidemic seasons and 0.23 cases during non-epidemic seasons.

    Perianal cellulitis, also known as perianitis or perianal streptococcal dermatitis, is a bacterial infection affecting the lower layers of the skin around the anus. [1] [2] [3] It presents as bright redness in the skin and can be accompanied by pain, difficulty defecating, itching, and bleeding.

  7. Fibril - Wikipedia

    It has a low stiffness ~0.6MPa but a high energy restoring percentage ~98%, and efficiently helps flying insects to flap wings or fleas to jump. Spider silk fibril is composed of stiff crystallized β-sheets structure, responsible for strength, and amorphous matrix surrounding, improving toughness and elongation ability. [ 16 ]

  8. Rectovaginal fistula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectovaginal_fistula

    Rectovaginal fistulas are often the result of trauma during childbirth (in which case it is known as obstetric fistula), with increased risk associated with significant lacerations or interventions are used such as episiotomy or operative (forceps/vacuum extraction) deliveries [2] or in situations where there is inadequate health care, such as in some developing countries.

  9. Fibrillin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrillin

    Fibrillin-1 is a major component of the microfibrils that form a sheath surrounding the amorphous elastin.It is believed that the microfibrils are composed of end-to-end polymers of fibrillin.
