Abstract
Technogenic soils (Technosols) developed in an ash settling pond at the Bełchatów thermal power station, central Poland, were studied in order to identify soil property transformations over 30 years of pedogenesis. Standard pedological methods were applied in order to determine the properties of the studied samples. All investigated soils were classified according to WRB as Spolic Technosols with various supplementary qualifiers (Alcalic/Hypereutric, Arenic/Loamic, Protocalcic, Hyperartefactic, Immisic, Laxic, Ochric, and Protosalic). The studied materials can be arranged into a chronosequence starting from fresh (unweathered) ashes, by young Technosol BE1 (age: several months), up to older Technosols BE2 (about 20 years) and BE3 (about 30 years). The studies showed that weathering and soil-forming processes changed properties of ash in soil environment. Fresh ash was characterized by high pH (11.0 – fly ash, 8.7 – bottom ash), low content of carbonates (1.5% in both samples), variable concentrations of TOC (1.2% – fly ash, 6.9% – bottom ash), and very low total nitrogen content (0.04%). Electrical conductivity (ECe) was 2.6 and 2.1 dS·m−1 in fly ash and bottom ash respectively. Young Technosol BE1 had the pH 9.2–10.0, contents of carbonates were in the range 2.4–3.3%, TOC 1.3–1.7%, and total nitrogen less than 0.03%. ECe in young Technosol was in the range 2.7–4.0 dS·m−1. There was no plant cover present on that soil and no well-developed genetic horizons were distinguished in the profile. Finally, old Technosols BE2 and BE3 had lower pH (from 7.9 up to 9.1), and, in general, higher contents of carbonates (from 1.5 to 7.9%) than fresh ash and young Technosol BE1. Old Technosols contained high concentrations of TOC (up to about 38% in Oi horizon) and total nitrogen (up to 0.9%) in the topsoil, where O and A horizons developed due to accumulation of soil organic matter. ECe in old Technosols was in the range 0.8–1.5 dS·m−1. All studied ashes and soils were characterized by very low or even absence of total potential acidity. Base cations predominated in the sorption complex of the investigated ash and soils and can be arranged in the following order according to the abundance: Ca>Mg>K>Na. Base saturation (BS) of fresh ashes and Technosols was nearly 100%. The study shows that the first indicators of pedogenesis of the studied technogenic soils within the first 30 years of formation are: (1) changes of consistence of ash material from firm to friable/very friable due to root action, (2) accumulation of soil organic matter in the topsoil and formation of O and A horizons, (3) decrease of pH, (4) formation of pedogenic carbonates in soils and (5) decrease in soil salinity.

Introducción: La anastomosis de Riche-Cannieu (ARC) es una variación anatómica formada entre la rama tenar del nervio mediano (NM) y la rama profunda del nervio cubital (NC). Debido a la importancia clínica y electromiográfica su descripción anatómica es de gran interés, ya que debido a esta variación anatómica existen distintas formas de inervación motora a nivel de la mano. Materiales y Métodos: Se realizaron disecciones cadavéricas en 38 manos (19 cadáveres) de ambos sexos formolizados en solución al 5 %, de entre 50 y 70 años de edad. Se utilizó instrumental y técnicas convencionales de disección. Resultados: En la rama profunda del NC no se evidenciaron variaciones y finalizaba su recorrido en el músculo aductor del pulgar. En el 86,84% de los casos emerge una rama que se anastomosa con el NM de diferentes formas. Esta rama anastomótica, en el 50% de las manos, era una arcada nerviosa de considerable calibre entre el NC y NM, que daba ramas motoras a los músculos de la eminencia tenar. Discusión: El conocimiento de esta anastomosis es muy importante ya que, en casos de lesión del nervio mediano o cubital, puede causar confusión clínica, quirúrgica y en los hallazgos electromiográficos. Debido a su alta frecuencia fue considerada un rasgo anatómico normal. Introduction: The Riche-Cannieu anastomosis (RCA) is an anatomic variation formed between the thenar branch of the median nerve and the deep branch of the ulnar nerve. Its anatomical description is of great interest because of its clinical and electromyographic relevance. Due to the RCA, there are various types of hand motor innervation. Materials and Methods: Thirty eight hands from 19 corpses (formolized in a 5% solution) whose ages ranged from 50 to 70 years old were dissected. Conventional instruments and techn-iques were used. Results: The pathway of the deep branch of the ulnar nerve did not show variations and ended at the adductor pollicis muscle. In 86.84% of the cases a branch emerged there and anastomosed the median nerve by different modalities. A nervous arcade of considerable important size was observed between the ulnar and median nerve in 50 % of the anastomosis and it gave motor branches for the thenar muscles. Discussion: It is of great importance to learn about this anastomosis because of the possibility of median or ulnar nerve injuries; it may cause clinical, surgical or electromyographic confusion. Due to its high frequency, it was regarded as a normal connection.

Introducción: El síndrome del espacio cuadrilátero (QSS) es un cuadro clínico causado por la compresión nerviosa y/o vascular a nivel del espacio axilar lateral. La prevalencia de este síndrome se desconoce y se cree que es baja, sin embargo, formas de presentación incompleta podrían llevar a que el mismo sea subdiagnosticado. Objetivo: Describir un protocolo diagnóstico utilizado en una serie de casos consecutivos de pacientes con omalgia inespecífica y sospecha de QSS. Materiales y Métodos: De manera prospectiva se evaluaron 10 pacientes con omalgia agravada con la rotación externa forzada, uno de ellos con síntomas bilaterales. Se realizó electromiografía (EMG) de deltoides y redondo menor bilaterales, con estudios de conducción nerviosa. Los valores se compararon con el hombro sano, y con un grupo control. El diagnóstico se confirmó mediante resonancia magnética nuclear (RMN). Resultados: El EMG mostró en todos los casos atrapamiento con compromiso axonal de la rama para el redondo menor, con preservación de la inervación del deltoides. La RMN mostró en los 11 hombros afectados atrofia selectiva del redondo menor. Conclusión: El QSS en sus formas incompletas suele ser subdiagnosticado, siendo necesario mantener un alto índice de sospecha clínica frente a un cuadro de omalgia inespecífica. Palabras Claves: espacio cuadrilátero, omalgia, electromiografía, redondo menor, nervio axilar. Introduction: The quadrilateral space syndrome (QSS) has clinical features caused by a nervous and /or vascular compression at the lateral axillary space. The prevalence of this syndrome is unknown but it is believed to be low. Nevertheless, some cases with an incomplete clinical presentation might be misdiagnosed. Purpose: To describe a diagnostic protocol used in a series of consecutive cases of patients with non-specific omalgia and suspected QSS. Materials and Methods: Ten patients of both genders suffering shoulder pain aggravated by forced external rotation were prospectively evaluated. One of them had bilateral symptoms. Evaluation included clinical examination, electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies of the deltoid and teres minor bilaterally. The results were compared with an age-matched control group. Diagnosis was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Results: The EMG showed in all the cases a selective entrapment of the branch for the teres minor, with preservation of the innervation of the deltoid. The RMN showed in the 11 affected shoulders selective atrophy of the teres minor. Conclusion: Incomplete presentations of the QSS are usually underdiagnosed, making it necessary to maintain a high index of clinical suspicion in front of any non-specific omalgia case. Key words: quadrilateral space, omalgia, electromyography, teres minor, axillary nerve.

Published: August 2018

A notch is often observed on the anterosuperior aspect of the glenoid fossa, however its association with gender remains unexplored. The aims of this study were to: (i) investigate the incidence and type of glenoid notch, and (ii) its association with gender, age and side. A total of 140 shoulders from 30 male and 40 female cadavers were examined. All muscles and blood vessels surrounding the glenohumeral joint, as well as the fibrous capsule, were removed to expose the glenoid fossa: the presence of a notch was classified as type I (mild), type II (moderate) or type III (severe). The mean age of specimens was 81.5 years (±9.8 years). A type III notch was the most commonly observed (32 male, 21 female specimens), followed by type I (14 male, 34 female specimens) and finally type II (14 male, 25 female specimens). Multivariate analysis showed that the type of glenoid notch was significantly associated with gender (?2 (2, n=140) = 11.088, p = 0.004). Females are significantly more likely to have a type I or II glenoid notch, while males are significantly more likely to have a type III notch. This difference could explain the higher incidence of shoulder dislocation in males compared to females. A menudo se observa una muesca en el lado anterosuperior de la fosa glenoidea, sin embargo su relación con el sexo sigue siendo inexplorada. Los objetivos de este estudio fueron: (i) investigar la incidencia y el tipo de muesca glenoidea, y (ii) su relación con el sexo, la edad y el lado en el que se observa. Se examinaron un total de 140 hombros de entre 30 cadáveres masculinos y 40 femeninos. Todos los músculos y vasos sanguíneos que rodean la articulación glenohumeral, así como la cápsula fibrosa, fueron retirados para permitir el acceso a la fosa glenoidea: la presencia de la muesca fue clasificada como tipo I (leve), tipo II (moderado) o tipo III (grave). La edad media de los especímenes examinados fue de 81,5 años (± 9,8 años). La muesca de tipo III fue la más comúnmente observada (32 varones, 21 hembras), seguida por la muesca de tipo I (14 varones, 34 hembras) y finalmente seguida de la de tipo II (14 varones, 25 hembras). El análisis multivariado mostró que el tipo de muesca glenoidea está significativamente relacionado con el sexo (?2 (2, n = 140) = 11.088, p = 0.004). Las mujeres son significativamente más propensas a presentar una muesca glenoidea de tipo I o II, mientras que los varones son significativamente más propensos a presentar una muesca de tipo III. Esta diferencia podría explicar la mayor incidencia de luxación de hombro que se produce en los varones en comparación con la que se produce en las mujeres.
