Changes in knee joint load indices from before to 12 months after arthroscopic partial meniscectomy:a prospective cohort study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Patients undergoing arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) are at increased risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Meniscal damage and/or surgery may alter knee joint loading to increase OA risk. We investigated changes in knee joint loading following medial

Proteomic profile of CSF obtained at the time of diagnosis determines amyotrophic lateral sclerosis progression and survival: CXCL7 levels in disease prognosis and survival

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Untargeted multiomic profiling of cerebrospinal fluid reveals that proteomic, but not lipidomic, signatures robustly distinguish ALS patients from controls and stratify individuals by survival, highlighting marked molecular differences between short survival and long survival disease.

Three‐year outcomes of repeated botulinum neurotoxin A injections to the lower extremities in young children with spastic cerebral palsy in GMFCS levels I to III

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
In this study, we followed a group of children 2 to 6 years old with spastic cerebral palsy functioning in GMFCS levels I–III, over 3 years. Sixty‐five received BoNT‐A and 59 did not. Repeated BoNT‐A injections over 3 years were not associated with improvements in gross motor function or passive ankle dorsiflexion. Daily step counts, favouring the BoNT‐

The effect of surface inclination and limb on knee loading measures in transtibial prosthesis users

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2019
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease caused by the wearing of joint cartilage and bone. Literature has established that a prosthesis user’s intact limb is at greater risk of developing OA.

Exoskeleton‐assisted physiotherapy in school and outpatient contexts for minimally ambulant children with cerebral palsy

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To assess the clinical feasibility of lower‐limb pediatric exoskeleton‐assisted (Trexo Plus) physiotherapy for minimally ambulatory children at an outpatient center and a primary school. Secondary aims were to assess associated functional and goal‐based outcomes before and after Trexo‐based physiotherapy.
