Improved quadriceps efficiency with a medial pivot in comparison to a cruciate‐retaining design in total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The posterior cruciate‐retaining (CR) design offers rotational freedom but risks abnormal kinematics and instability. The medial pivot (MP) design mimics native joint motion with a high‐conformity medial and flat lateral interface. Within clinical studies, the MP design outclassed the CR design, but biomechanical studies are lacking ...

Motion-Driven Neural Optimizer for Prophylactic Braces Made by Distributed Microstructures [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Joint injuries, and their long-term consequences, present a substantial global health burden. Wearable prophylactic braces are an attractive potential solution to reduce the incidence of joint injuries by limiting joint movements that are related to injury risk.

Optimizing the Use of an Artificial Tongue-Placed Tactile Biofeedback for Improving Ankle Joint Position Sense in Humans [PDF]

open access: yes28th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (2006) 6029-6032, 2006
The performance of an artificial tongue-placed tactile biofeedback device for improving ankle joint position sense was assessed in 12 young healthy adults using an active matching task. The underlying principle of this system consists of supplying individuals with supplementary information about the position of the matching ankle relative to the ...

Knee laxity, joint hypermobility, femoral anteversion, hamstring extensibility and navicular drop as risk factors for non‐contact ACL injury in female athletes: A 4.5‐year prospective cohort study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether six selected anatomical variables were associated with non‐contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in female team sport athletes. Methods Two hundred eighty‐seven female athletes (age 13–38 at baseline) from basketball, floorball, ice hockey and volleyball completed a baseline physical examination ...

Ankle Fracture-Dislocations

open access: yesFoot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2018
Ankle fractures are common musculoskeletal injuries that may result in tibiotalar joint dislocations. Ankle fracture-dislocations occur via similar mechanisms as ankle fractures, although the persistence or magnitude of the deforming force is sufficient ...

Image‐based robotic total knee arthroplasty preserves the knee joint line level even in advanced fixed flexion deformities when combined with functional alignment principles: A retrospective comparative cohort study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Fixed flexion deformity (FFD) is traditionally addressed in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with extensive soft tissue release and distal femoral recut, which increases bone stock consumption and raises the knee joint line (JL). This study aimed to evaluate differences in the anatomical restoration of the JL and bone stock preservation ...
