how does ageing and IV disc occur to nucleus pulposus [3] & annulus fibrosis? [2]
degeneration starts in your twenties :(
nucleus pulpsosus dries out: can become compressed more easily !!
- *- loose height
- disc not as resilient
- disc doees not absorb shocks well**
annulus fibrosus:
cracks
pushed out more by nucleus pulpsosus
where does pain occur from slipped disc? [3]
how does pain occur when have herniated disc? [2]
IVD is poorly innervated so pain doesn’t come from the disc itself [1]
Compression of surrounding ligaments causes localised pain [1]
Compression of nerve roots causes numbness, tingling and pain across the respective dermatome
purple structure?
role? [3]

ligamentum flavum !
- Extends from lamina above to lamina below of adjacent vertebra
- Resists separation of the lamina
- Stops abrupt flexion
- High elastic content so assists with straightening after flexion


which ligament do u find that supports C1/C2?
transverse ligament of atlas

what are the deep muscles of the back called? [1]
innervation? [1]
what are the deep muscles of the back called? [1]
paraspinals
innervation? [1]
dorsal rami of spinal nerves
what happens to paraspinal if disc slips?
If disc herniates then the paraspinals contract on that side to try and hold things together but that causes that side to shorten and pinch the nerve root.


what is the Z line in sarcomere? [1]
what is the Z line in sarcomere? [1]
where the actin thin filament inserts: creates a dark band
what is the A band in sarcomere? [1]
what is the I band in sarcomere? [1]
what is the H zone in sarcomere? [1]
what is the M line? [1]
what is the A band in sarcomere? [1]
myosin filament - thick filament. some overlap with actin present
what is the M line? [1]
holds the myosin filament in place in sarcomere. no actin present
what is the I band in sarcomere? [1]
actin filament - thin filament
becomes darker on EM when the thick and thin overlap !


what is the role of the t tubule? [1]
They allow transmission of the action potential, with its attendant ion shifts, to all parts of the cell, which allows rapid activation of the entire cell
what is the enthesis? [1]
what is the enthesis? [1]

describe transition from muscle –> bone [3]
muscle; myotendon intersection; enthesis (bone insertion point); bone
what is the enthesis? [1]
bone / tendon insertion: tendon to fibrocartilage to calficified fibrocartilage

what does ^ attach to? [3]
medial malleoulus of tibia
calcaneus
navicular
what movement does it prevent? [1]
prevents subluxion

which 3 ligaments make the the lateral ligament? [3]
which are they clinically significant? [1]
which 3 ligaments make the the lateral ligament? [3]
anterior talofibular
posterior talofibular
calcaneofibular
which are they clinically significant? [1]
because theyre seperate structures - really likely to tear: lateral collateral ligament tear

eversion:
- innervated by which nerve?
- which muscles? [2]
- which compartment of leg? [1]
dorsiflexion and toe extension:
- innervated by which nerve: deep branch of common peroneal nerve
- which muscles: **tibialis anterior, E. digitorum longus and E. hallicus longus
- anterior compartment**
eversion
- innervated by which nerve: superficial branch of common peroneal
- which muscles: fibularis longus and fibularis brevis
- lateral compartment

which muscles of leg cause foot inversion? [2]
which muscles of leg cause foot inversion? [2]

tibial nerve
posterior tibial artery
which structures pass under the extensor retincula? [2]
deep peroneal nerve (fibular nerve)
anterior tibial artery

what is arrow pointing to?

extensor reticulum
what maintains the longitduinal arches? [2]
- *dynamic support**
- muscle contracts as when required
- muscle tendons insert into apex of arches - when muscles contracts, pulls apex up & counteract body weight
- includes intrinsic muscles
- *passive support**
- constant & ongoing support
- due to shape of bones: allows them to interlock


explain the arches of the foot? [3]
- *medial longitudinal arch:**
- open footprin side: middle of foot isnt it
- contact with ground: big toe & calcaneous
- resilient due to large no. of bones
- *lateral longitudinal arch:**
- flatter
- less bones
- talus transmits body weight through it - weight not central though - either goes forward or backwards
transverse arch:
not a true arch - maintained by some mscles and ligaments as longuitnial arches
- bony fit is particularly good
