Text of the page (random words):
rically 5 society and culture edit see also midriff and navel in popular culture social and cultural perceptions of the outward appearance of the abdomen has varying significance around the world depending on the type of society excess weight can be perceived as an indicator of wealth and prestige due to excess food or as a sign of poor health due to lack of exercise in many cultures bare abdomens are distinctly sexualized and perceived similarly to breast cleavage exercise edit main article abdominal exercise the superman exercise involving balancing solely with the abdomen on a folded towel while raising the upper torso and pelvis off the floor with the limbs bent there are numerous variations 6 being key elements of spinal support and contributors to good posture it is important to properly exercise the abdominal muscles together with the back muscles because when these are weak or overly tight they can suffer painful spasms and injuries when properly exercised abdominal muscles contribute to improved posture and balance reduce the likelihood of back pain episodes reduce the severity of back pain 7 protect against injury 8 help avoid some back surgeries and help with the healing of back problems or after spine surgery when strengthened the abdominal muscles provide flexibility as well the abdominal muscles can be worked by strength and fitness exercises and through practicing disciplines of general body strength such as pilates 9 yoga 10 tai chi and jogging clinical significance edit abdominal obesity is a condition where abdominal fat or visceral fat has built up excessively between the abdominal organs this is associated with a higher risk of heart disease asthma and type 2 diabetes abdominal trauma is an injury to the abdomen and can involve damage to the abdominal organs there is an associated risk of severe blood loss and infection 11 injury to the lower chest can cause injuries to the spleen and liver 12 a scaphoid abdomen is when the abdomen is sucked inwards 13 in a newborn it may represent a diaphragmatic hernia 14 in general it is indicative of malnutrition 15 disease edit main article gastrointestinal disease many gastrointestinal diseases affect the abdominal organs these include stomach disease liver disease pancreatic disease gallbladder and bile duct disease intestinal diseases include enteritis coeliac disease diverticulitis and irritable bowel syndrome examination edit different medical procedures can be used to examine the organs of the gastrointestinal tract these include endoscopy colonoscopy sigmoidoscopy enteroscopy oesophagogastroduodenoscopy and virtual colonoscopy there are also a number of medical imaging techniques that can be used surface landmarks are important in the examination of the abdomen surface landmarks edit surface projections of the organs of the trunk from which organ locations are derived mainly from vertebra levels ribs and the ilium in the mid line a slight furrow extends from the xiphoid process above to the pubic symphysis below representing the linea alba in the abdominal wall at about its midpoint sits the umbilicus or navel the rectus abdominis on each side of the linea alba stands out in muscular people the outline of these muscles is interrupted by three or more transverse depressions indicating the tendinous intersections there is usually one about the xiphoid process one at the navel and one in between it is the combination of the linea alba and the tendinous intersections which form the abdominal six pack sought after by many people the upper lateral limit of the abdomen is the subcostal margin at or near the subcostal plane formed by the cartilages of the false ribs 8 9 10 joining one another the lower lateral limit is the anterior crest of the ilium and poupart s ligament which runs from the anterior superior spine of the ilium to the spine of the pubis these lower limits are marked by visible grooves just above the pubic spines on either side are the external abdominal rings which are openings in the muscular wall of the abdomen through which the spermatic cord emerges in the male and through which an inguinal hernia may rupture one method by which the location of the abdominal contents can be appreciated is to draw three horizontal and two vertical lines horizontal lines edit front of abdomen showing markings for duodenum pancreas and kidneys the highest of the former is the transpyloric line of c addison which is situated halfway between the suprasternal notch and the top of the pubic symphysis and often cuts the pyloric opening of the stomach an inch to the right of the mid line the hilum of each kidney is a little below it while its left end approximately touches the lower limit of the spleen it corresponds to the first lumbar vertebra behind the second line is the subcostal line drawn from the lowest point of the subcostal arch tenth rib it corresponds to the upper part of the third lumbar vertebra and it is an inch or so above the umbilicus it indicates roughly the transverse colon the lower ends of the kidneys and the upper limit of the transverse 3rd part of the duodenum the third line is called the intertubercular line and runs across between the two rough tubercles which can be felt on the outer lip of the crest of the ilium about two and a half inches 64 mm from the anterior superior spine this line corresponds to the body of the fifth lumbar vertebra and passes through or just above the ileo caecal valve where the small intestine joins the large intestine vertical lines edit the two vertical or mid poupart lines are drawn from the point midway between the anterior superior spine and the pubic symphysis on each side vertically upward to the costal margin the right one is the most valuable as the ileo caecal valve is situated where it cuts the intertubercular line the orifice of the appendix lies an inch lower at mcburney s point in its upper part the vertical line meets the transpyloric line at the lower margin of the ribs usually the ninth and here the gallbladder is situated the left mid poupart line corresponds in its upper three quarters to the inner edge of the descending colon the right subcostal margin corresponds to the lower limit of the liver while the right nipple is about half an inch above its upper limit quadrants and regions edit side by side comparison of quadrants and regions main article quadrants and regions of abdomen the abdomen can be divided into quadrants or regions to describe the location of an organ or structure classically quadrants are described as the left upper left lower right upper and right lower citation needed quadrants are also often used in describing the site of an abdominal pain 16 the abdomen can also be divided into nine regions right hypochondriac hypochondrium epigastric epigastrium left hypochondriac hypochondrium right lumbar flank latus lateral umbilical left lumbar flank latus lateral right inguinal iliac hypogastric supra pubic left inguinal iliac these terms stem from hypo meaning below and epi means above while chondron means cartilage in this case the cartilage of the rib and gaster means stomach the reversal of left and right is intentional because the anatomical designations reflect the patient s own right and left the right iliac fossa rif is a common site of pain and tenderness in patients who have appendicitis the fossa is named for the underlying iliac fossa of the hip bone and thus is somewhat imprecise most of the anatomical structures that will produce pain and tenderness in this region are not in fact in the concavity of the ileum however the term is in common usage across animal phyla and classes edit chordata edit further information chordata mammals edit see also mammal anatomy abdominal organs can be highly specialized in some mammals for example the stomach of ruminants a suborder of mammals that includes cattle and sheep is divided into four chambers rumen reticulum omasum and abomasum 17 arthropoda edit in arthropods the abdomen is built up of a series of upper plates known as tergites and lower plates known as sternites the whole being held together by a tough yet stretchable membrane insects edit the analogous gross morphologies of a human male and an ant in the worker ant the abdomen consists of the propodeum fused to the thorax and the metasoma itself divided into the narrow petiole and bulbous gaster in insects the abdomen contains the insect s digestive tract and reproductive organs it consists of eleven segments in most orders of insects though the eleventh segment is absent in the adult of most higher orders the number of these segments does vary from species to species with the number of segments visible reduced to only seven in the common honey bee in the collembola springtails the abdomen has only six segments the abdomen is sometimes highly modified in apocrita bees ants and wasps the first segment of the abdomen is fused to the thorax and is called the propodeum in ants the second segment forms the narrow petiole some ants have an additional postpetiole segment and the remaining segments form the bulbous gaster 18 the petiole and gaster abdominal segments 2 and onward are collectively called the metasoma unlike other arthropods insects possess no legs on the abdomen in adult form though the protura do have rudimentary leg like appendages on the first three abdominal segments and archaeognatha possess small articulated styli which are sometimes considered to be rudimentary appendages many larval insects including the lepidoptera and the symphyta sawflies have fleshy appendages called prolegs on their abdominal segments as well as their more familiar thoracic legs which allow them to grip onto the edges of plant leaves as they walk around arachnida edit in arachnids spiders scorpions and relatives the term abdomen is used interchangeably with opisthosoma hind body which is the body section posterior to that bearing the legs and head the prosoma or cephalothorax see also edit this article uses anatomical terminology abdominal fat references
