BIO 212 CMICH Prevalence Palmaris Longus Clinical Evaluation Article Questions Below I have attached an article in a set of questions that will have to be answered upon reading the article. Primary Literature Assignment
NAME _____________________________
Paper:
Eri? M, Krivoku?a D, Savovi? S, Lekan I, Vu?ini? N. 2010. Prevalence of the palmaris longus through
clinical evaluation. Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy 32:357361.
Read the associated article and answer the following questions.
A. Introduction
a. What is the function of the palmaris longus muscle?
b. What is the standard position of the palmaris longus muscle?
c. What are the variations found in human?
d. What is the clinical significance of the palmaris longus muscle?
e. Why did the authors do this study?
B. Methods
a. Who are the subjects of the study?
b. How was the presence of the palmaris longus muscle evaluated?
c. What data was collected?
C. Results When answering these questions, include where you found the information. (Figure/Table
number and/or location in the text)
a. What percentage of subjects had a unilaterally absent palmaris longus muscle? Bilaterally?
b. Are there sex differences in palmaris longus muscle absence? If so, what are they?
c. Are there age differences in palmaris longus muscle absence? If so, what are they?
D. Discussion
a. What are some other populations that other studies have investigated with regards to the
palmaris longus muscle? Any differences?
b. How does this papers findings compare to others who have done similar research?
E. Answer the following questions.
a. What drives the variation (why does it exist) seen in the palmaris longus muscle?
b. What is at least 1 other structure that shows variability in the human body?
c. After reading the article, what questions does it raise for you?
d. How has this broadened your understanding of the human body?
e. Can the variation of the palmaris longus muscle be used to explain some parts human
evolution? Why or why not?
