Unsupervised Machine Learning Identifies Shared Biomechanical and Clinical Variation in Individuals with Knee Osteoarthritis and High BMI: A Secondary Analysis of the IDEA Trial

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective High body mass index (BMI≥27 kg/m2) and aberrant gait biomechanics are primary risk factors for knee osteoarthritis (KOA), yet the specific loading patterns linked to clinical disease features remain unclear. Unsupervised machine learning (ML) was used to identify vertical ground reaction force (vGRF) waveform modes of variation and ...

Vitamin D Receptor Genetic Polymorphisms Associate With a Decreased Susceptibility to Extremity Osteomyelitis Partly by Inhibiting Macrophage Apoptosis Through Inhibition of Excessive ROS Production via VDR-Bmi1 Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Background: Previous studies had reported that vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms were related to the development of several inflammatory disorders. However, potential links between such variations and the risk of developing a bone infection and

Cartilage tissue engineering: controlled release of growth factors. Effects of GDF-5, sexual steroid hormons and oxygen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Articular cartilage is likely a major candidate to be successfully regenerated by tissue engineering methods; first commercial products have already reached the market. However, to fully regenerate articular cartilage tissue, further optimization appears

How to salvage the delivery of a wrong-sided meniscal allograft: A rare case series

open access: yesJournal of Cartilage & Joint Preservation, 2021
Introduction: Although rare, tissue processing errors have occurred during meniscal transplantation. The anatomic differences between the lateral and medial menisci makes this problematic for surgeons who find themselves with an incorrectly labeled graft.

3D‐Printed Titanium Gyroid Scaffold Structure Integrated With Tough Hybrid Materials for Cartilage Replacement

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study proposes a potential device design for joint cartilage replacement. Silica‐polytetrahydrofuran (SiO2‐PolyTHF) hybrids with customizable mechanical properties were developed to mimic the characteristics of a natural meniscus. These were synthesized through a two‐pot sol–gel hybrid process.

MACI (autologous cultured chondrocytes on porcine collagen membrane) in patients 40 years and older: short-term clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction

open access: yesJournal of Cartilage & Joint Preservation, 2023
Introduction: Cartilage restoration in the middle-aged population (40-60 years) is understudied. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to report the clinical outcomes and satisfaction of patients over the age of 40 years old who underwent autologous ...

Preferential Interfacial Engineering of Hydrogels via Interdigitated Nanoparticle Assembly

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Robust surface functionalization of hydrogel surfaces is performed via interdigitated metal nanoparticle assembly, inducing strong affinity with the hydrogel matrix. The partially exposed nanoparticle domains act as interfacial nanobridges that mediate both chemical and physical bonding with diverse materials, including small molecules, fluorous ...

Comparison of clinical outcomes following osteochondral allograft transplantation for osteochondral versus chondral defects in the knee

open access: yesKnee Surgery & Related Research, 2022
Purpose Osteochondral allograft (OCA) transplantation is a restorative technique for addressing articular cartilage defects by transferring mature viable chondrocytes with subchondral bone into size-matched lesions.
