NEW YORK — Results presented at the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Annual Meeting showed button fixation had a significantly greater risk of recurrent shoulder dislocation but lower reoperation ...

Researchers recently discovered a helicoidal-shaped defect in layered polymers, uncovering how solvents can diffuse through layers and produce color changes. Dr. Edwin L. Thomas, professor in the ...

The relaxed state of a type of topological defect (screw dislocation) located in a dispersive (non-local) elastic solid is discussed from a viewpoint of gauge field theory. The starting point of this ...

Shoulder instability occurs when your shoulder joint (ball and socket) has lost is normal alignment (ball resting symmetrically in the socket), which causes your arm to lose its support. The most ...

Posterior shoulder dislocation occurs when the top of the upper arm bone, known as the humerus, moves backward out of its socket. This causes pain, muscle spasms, and a limited range of motion. The ...

Dr. Edwin L. Thomas, professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, and a team of researchers from Texas A&M University and Yonsei University recently discovered a helicoidal-shaped ...
