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

open access: yesBiological 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 ...

Clinical and quality-of-life outcomes of a combined synthetic scaffold and autogenous tissue graft procedure for articular cartilage repair in the knee

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2022
Background Injuries to the articular cartilage of the knee often fail to heal properly due to the hypocellular and avascular nature of this tissue. Subsequent disability can limit participation in sports and decrease quality of life.

Recombinant Human Amelogenin Protein Enhances Healing of Osteochondral Injury in a Goat Model. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Orthop Res
ABSTRACT Osteochondral injuries are common, painful, and lack natural healing abilities. Previous studies demonstrated that recombinant human amelogenin promotes osteochondral repair in rat knee injuries, including improved defect filling and formation of hyaline cartilage.

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

open access: yesClinical 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 ...

Preliminary definitions for the sonographic features of synovitis in children [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objectives Musculoskeletal ultrasonography (US) has the potential to be an important tool in the assessment of disease activity in childhood arthritides. To assess pathology, clear definitions for synovitis need to be developed first.

Clinical and research applications of synthetic bone substitutes in equine veterinary medicine: A systematic review

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bone grafting in equine medicine offers a promising contribution to treating orthopaedic developmental diseases and chondral, osteochondral and segmental bone defects. Among grafts, synthetic bone substitutes—alloplastics—show favourable biological properties addressing numerous limitations presented by autografts, xenografts and ...

Mass culture of equine synovial fluid‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells using nonwoven polyethylene terephthalate fabrics

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Culture protocols need to yield 100 million equine synovial fluid (SF)‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (SF‐MSCs) in around 3 weeks are needed, before these cells can be evaluated as agents of articular repair in clinical trials. Objectives To investigate mass culture of equine SF‐MSC culture protocols using nonwoven polyethylene ...

Unlocking Resilience: How Endurance Resistance Training Transforms Knee Cartilage in Young Male Rats

open access: yesAnnals of Abbasi Shaheed Hospital and Karachi Medical & Dental College
Objective: This study examines how endurance resistance training affects the thickness of young male rats’ knee joint hyaline cartilage. These results can later be replicated for the benefit of humans, and an appropriate exercise-based plan can be ...

Preconditioning of mesenchymal stromal cells with low-intensity ultrasound: influence on chondrogenesis and directed SOX9 signaling pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Continuous low-intensity ultrasound (cLIUS) facilitates the chondrogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in the absence of exogenously added transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ) by upregulating the expression of ...

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

open access: yesKnee 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.
