On subclasses of close-to-convex functions of higher order by Khalida Inayat Noor

“…The classes Tk(ρ), 0≤ρ<1, k≥2, of analytic functions, using the class Vk(ρ) of functions of bounded boundary rotation, are defined and it is shown that the functions in these classes are close-to-convex of higher order. Covering theorem, arc-length result and some radii problems are solved. …”

Gaining Surgical Access for Repositioning the Inferior Alveolar Neurovascular Bundle by Saif Yousif Abdullah Al-Siweedi, P. Nambiar, P. Shanmuhasuntharam, W. C. Ngeow

“…Apicobasal assessment of the canal reveals that it is curving downward towards the inferior mandibular border until 20 mm (D3) distal to the mental foramen where it then curves upwards, making an elliptic-arc curve. The mandibular canal also forms a buccolingually oriented elliptic arc in relation to the buccal cortex. …”

Intra-Articular Osteotomy for Distal Humerus Malunion by René K. Marti, Job Doornberg

“…Intra-articular osteotomy is considered in the rare case of malunion after a fracture of the distal humerus to restore humeral alignment and gain a functional arc of elbow motion. Traumatic and iatrogenic disruption of the limited blood flow to the distal end of the humerus resulting in avascular necrosis of capitellum or trochlea is a major pitfall of the this technically challenging procedure. …”
