Near infrared spectroscopic evaluation of biochemical and crimp properties of knee joint ligaments and patellar tendon

PLoS ONE, 2022
Knee ligaments and tendons play an important role in stabilizing and controlling the motions of the knee. Injuries to the ligaments can lead to abnormal mechanical loading of the other supporting tissues (e.g., cartilage and meniscus) and even ...

The effect of CT and MRI with and without arthrography on the appearance of the feline carpal ligaments

BMC Veterinary Research, 2022
Background The current diagnosis of feline carpal injuries is based on radiographic examination including stress views and computed tomography; however, these techniques do not allow for direct evaluation of the carpal ligaments.

Ligament mechanics of ageing and osteoarthritic human knees

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Knee joint ligaments provide stability to the joint by preventing excessive movement. There has been no systematic effort to study the effect of OA and ageing on the mechanical properties of the four major human knee ligaments. This study aims to collate

Effect of different loads on the shoulder in abduction postures: a finite element analysis

Scientific Reports, 2023
Load can change the mechanical environment of dynamic and static stable structures of the shoulder joint, increase the risk of tissue damage and affect the stability of the shoulder joint, but its biomechanical mechanism is still unclear.
