Anal index

The journal aims to publish articles that may contribute to the improvement and the development of the practice, research, and teaching of coloproctology and related specialities. SRJ is a prestige metric based on the idea that not all citations are the same. SJR uses a similar algorithm as the Google page rank; it provides a quantitative and qualitative measure of the journal's impact. SNIP measures contextual citation impact by wighting citations based on the total number of citations in a subject field.

This study was aimed to determine the normal position of the anus using the anal position index API in an attempt to develop a more sensitive method for measuring API. To investigate API in a wide range of neonates, both term and preterm infants were included in the present study. API was determined by measuring the anus-fourchette FA and anus-coccyx AC distance in female neonates and the anus-scrotum and AC distance in male neonates. A digital caliper was used for all measurements.

Aim: The purpose of this study was to determine the normal position of anus using anal position index API and the modified measurement method and to emphasize the importance of ectopic anus. This cross-sectional study was performed on neonates equally, boys and girls who were all delivered at full term without any malformations. To make correct measurements, transparent adhesive tape was used longitudinally on midperinum in a way that it covered the anus. Distances marked on each tape were then measured with the standard ruler. Six female and five male neonates who had abnormal APIs were investigated further.

CJ: Why did you decide to hang up your garter belt. Molly: I met the man of my dreams and we decided to move to Ohio. We have a house on an acre, get some chickens and do the thing. What size are they.
