Development and validation of a novel approach for quantifying dimensions of the lateral ligaments in human ankle dissections

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Traditional measurement techniques in cadaveric dissection fail to account for the changes in soft tissue length during joint movement. We have developed a new, simple method to obtain more accurate measurements of ligament length and validated using the lateral ankle ligaments group.

Adult calcaneal osteitis: incidence, etiology, diagnostics and therapy

open access: yesGMS Interdisciplinary Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery DGPW, 2012
Calcaneal osteomyelitis presents a complicated situation. The specific anatomy of the os calcis and its surrounding soft tissues plays an important role in the planning and realization of the procedures needed in order to eradicate the osteomyelitic ...

Functional anatomy of entheses and enthesis organs: A celebration of Professor Mike Benjamin's contribution to enthesis biology

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This review celebrates the work of Professor Mike Benjamin, whose anatomical research transformed our understanding of entheses. Entheses are biomechanically complex regions that accommodate the transition between soft connective tissues and bone by natural macroscopic and microscopic adaptations that reduce stress concentration.

Effect of artificial gravity on calcaneal bone marrow adipose tissue and mineral content in female and male participants in 60 days of bed rest

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modulation of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) with prolonged inactivity was reported in haemopoietic but not in non‐haemopoietic bones. This prospective randomized controlled trial submitted 16 men and 8 women to 60 days of 6° head‐down‐tilt bed rest.

Glycosaminoglycans influence regional mechanics in young but not old Achilles tendons

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are long, polysaccharide chains that are located between collagen fibrils in tendon and decrease with age in many musculoskeletal tissues. Yet, it is unknown whether declines in GAGs with age are responsible for age‐related changes to Achilles tendon mechanics.

Load and muscle‐dependent changes in triceps surae motor unit firing properties in individuals with non‐insertional Achilles tendinopathy

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Motor unit firing properties of the medial gastrocnemius (MG), lateral gastrocnemius (LG), and soleus (SO) muscles were assessed using high‐density surface electromyography (HD‐sEMG) during isometric plantarflexion contractions at 10%, 40%, and 70% maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) in individuals with non‐insertional Achilles ...

The influence of valgus heel position on foot loading in a child's gait

open access: yesActa Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Gymnica, 2012
BACKGROUND: Flat foot is a typical clinical sign in childhood, expressed as valgus positioning of the heel during vertical foot loading. This may lead to medial deviation of the foot axis and cause overloading of some foot areas.
