Chemically crosslinked hyaluronic acid-chitosan hydrogel for application on cartilage regeneration
Articular cartilage is an avascular tissue that lines the ends of bones in diarthrodial joints, serves as support, acts as a shock absorber, and facilitates joint’s motion.

The effect of loading rate on the development of early damage in articular cartilage [PDF]
Experimental reports suggest that cartilage damage depends on strain magnitude. Additionally, because of its poro-viscoelastic nature, strain magnitude in cartilage can depend on strain rate. The present study explores whether cartilage damage may develop dependent on strain rate, even when the presented damage numerical model is strain-dependent but ...

Osteopontin level in synovial fluid is associated with the severity of joint pain and cartilage degradation after anterior cruciate ligament rupture. [PDF]
To explore the molecular function of Osteopontin (OPN) in the pathogenesis of human OA, we compared the expression levels of OPN in synovial fluid with clinical parameters such as arthroscopic observation of cartilage damage and joint pain after joint ...

Diffusion-Tensor Imaging of Human Articular Cartilage Specimens with Early Signs of Cartilage Damage [PDF]
To assess the use of diffusion-tensor (DT) imaging of articular cartilage to detect and grade early cartilage damage in human specimens with early signs of cartilage damage.This study was approved by the institutional review board. Forty-three cartilage-on-bone samples drilled from 21 human patellae were examined with 17.6-T magnetic resonance (MR ...
