Are Hip Precautions Necessary Post Total Hip Arthroplasty? A Systematic Review

Geriatric Orthopaedic Surgery & Rehabilitation, 2015
Purpose: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common and effective treatment of hip osteoarthritis. Activity restrictions known as hip precautions are widely practiced in rehabilitation post THA, aiming to foster healing and prevent hip dislocation.

Lattice Structures for Bone Replacement: The Intersection of Bone Biomechanics, Lattice Design, and Additive Manufacturing

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review outlines how understanding bone's biology, hierarchical architecture, and mechanical anisotropy informs the design of lattice structures that replicate bone morphology and mechanical behavior. Additive manufacturing enables the fabrication of orthopedic implants that incorporate such structures using a range of engineering materials ...

A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,

Targeting Itga8 Mitigates Neurogenic Bladder Fibrosis Driven by Trem2⁺ Macrophage‐Derived Fn1 via FAK/RhoA/ROCK Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Normal bladders exhibit quiescent fibroblasts/macrophages, whereas neurogenic bladders show acute‐phase Itga8⁺ fibroblast expansion driven by Trem2⁺ macrophage‐secreted Fn1, which activates FAK/RhoA/ROCK signaling, promotes cytoskeletal remodeling, and upregulates pro‐fibrotic genes.

Design of a Cobalt‐Free Maraging Steel with Ultra‐High Strength of 2.3 GPa Through Additive Manufacturing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A computationally designed, cobalt‐free maraging steel tailored for additive manufacturing achieves an ultra‐high tensile strength of 2.3 GPa with 5.7% elongation. This exceptional strength‐ductility synergy stems from high‐density core‐shell Ni3Ti/NiAl nanoprecipitates, a crack‐resistant composition, and a fine equiaxed grain structure enabled by ...

Biodegradable Adhesive Systems for Bio‐Integrated Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Biodegradable adhesives provide temporary yet reliable adhesion while degrading into safe, non‐toxic by‐products under physiological or environmental conditions. This review summarizes recent developments in physical and chemical adhesion mechanisms—including hydrogen bonding, catechol chemistry, amine‐carboxyl coupling, and emerging diazirine and urea

Instability Testing for Congenital Hip Dislocation: Knee Extension Provokes Hip Dislocation [PDF]

Cureus, 2020
The classic Ortolani and Barlow signs are routinely used to diagnose hip instability secondary to severe acetabular dysplasia in the newborn. However, eliciting a positive sign depends largely on the experience of the examiner and the subjective amount of manual pressure the examiner applies on the baby's hips.
