Purpose: To Test for the presence of shoulder instability. Test position: Sitting or standing. Performing the Test: The examiner grasps the wrist of the patient's elbow and pulls the arm distally. Observation is made of the amount of sulcus (space between the acromion process and humeral head) that is present with the distal arm pull. A positive test is considered for multidirectional instability if 1-2 cm of sulcus is noted. Diagnostic Accuracy: Unknown.
> Synapsis (also called syndesis) is the pairing of two homologous chromosomes that occurs during meiosis. It allows matching-up of homologous pairs prior to their segregation, and possible chromosomal crossover between them. Synapsis takes place during prophase I of meiosis.
A synapse is a complex membrane junction or gap (the actual gap, also known as the synaptic cleft, is of the order of 20 nanometres, or 20 millionths of a millimetre) used to transmit signals between cells, and this transfer is therefore known as a synaptic connection.eurons & Synapses.
