Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Osteochondral grafting of knee joint using mosaicplasty [PDF]

, 2011
Focal cartilage defects of articular surface-traumatic and degenerative are difficult to treat, thus a variety of surgical techniques have been developed and reported for treatment of such defects. Procedures such as Priddies perforations, microfracture,

Histopathologic Analysis of the Morpho‐Functional Zones of the Human Acetabular Labrum

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The structural and functional adaptation of soft tissues to mechanical load controls their ability to withstand injury and influences their capacity for healing. Similar to the knee meniscus, the acetabular labrum exhibits zonal differences in mechanical load distribution, resulting in distinct regions with unique structural and functional ...

Annulus Fibrosus Can Strip Hyaline Cartilage End Plate from Subchondral Bone: A Study of the Intervertebral Disk in Tension

Global Spine Journal, 2015
Study Design Biomechanical study on cadaveric spines. Objective Spinal bending causes the annulus to pull vertically (axially) on the end plate, but failure mechanisms in response to this type of loading are poorly understood. Therefore, the objective of

Microfracture for full‐thickness chondral lesions of the knee in elite athletes leads to high return‐to‐play rates

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Injuries to the knee are common in elite athletes and often involve damage to the articular cartilage. Given the high demands of elite sport, full‐thickness articular cartilage defects in the knee can be career‐limiting or threatening.

Spheroid‐based matrix‐induced autologous chondrocyte implantation combined with autologous bone grafting restores physiological cartilage and subchondral bone properties in osteochondral knee defects ‐ An MRI‐based analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the radiological and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) following spheroid‐based matrix‐induced autologous chondrocyte implantation combined with autologous bone grafting (MABCI) for the treatment of osteochondral defects of the knee.

Engineering a Fibrocartilage Spectrum through Modulation of Aggregate Redifferentiation

Cell Transplantation, 2015
Expanded costochondral cells provide a clinically relevant cell source for engineering both fibrous and hyaline articular cartilage. Expanding chondrocytes in a monolayer results in a shift toward a proliferative, fibroblastic phenotype.

Minced cartilage implantation provides comparable outcomes to autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) for knee cartilage lesions: A matched‐pair analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare short‐term patient‐reported outcomes (PROMs) and revision rates between autologous hand‐minced cartilage implantation (MCI) and autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) for knee cartilage lesions. Methods All patients undergoing MCI or ACI at a single centre were retrospectively analysed from a prospectively maintained ...
