Ankle joint pressure change in varus malalignment of the tibia

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background Varus malalignment of the tibia could alter ankle biomechanics, and might lead to degenerative changes of the ankle joint. However, previous studies failed to report the detailed changes of ankle biomechanics in varus malalignment of the tibia.

Intra-individual comparison of human ankle and knee chondrocytes in vitro: relevance for talar cartilage repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
OBJECTIVE: As compared to knee chondrocytes (KC), talar chondrocytes (TC) have superior synthetic activity and increased resistance to catabolic stimuli. We investigated whether these properties are maintained after TC are isolated and expanded in vitro.

Ankle joint traumas rehabilitation methods

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences, 2020
Traumas of ankle joint are the most common. Ankle injuries account for 20 to 30% of all traumas of the human locomotor system. During the life process, the ankle is subjected to sufficiently heavy loads, therefore joint injuries often occur.
