Relationship between joint angle and contact force at the knee during normal gait
Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and ManufacturingKnee joint contact force is related to knee joint pain and related diseases such as osteoarthritis. Joint loading during gait even on an intact knee may cumulatively lead to the joint diseases. Previous studies on forward dynamics simulation suggest that

Tibiofemoral and patellofemoral joint 3D-kinematics in patients with posterior cruciate ligament deficiency compared to healthy volunteers [PDF]
, 2012 Background: The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) plays an important role in maintaining physiological kinematics and function of the knee joint. To date mainly in-vitro models or combined magnetic resonance and fluoroscopic systems have been used for ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Reihs et al. present the development of a humanized, animal‐free synovial membrane model for osteoarthritis. Methods include 3D biochip cultures of human‐primary OA synoviocytes with matrix and serum surrogates. Results show replication of synovial architecture and increased Yap1 expression.

The negative effect of joint line elevation after total knee arthroplasty on outcome
Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2018 PurposeTotal knee arthroplasty (TKA) is widely used as a treatment for knee osteoarthritis. However, still up to 20% of the patients are dissatisfied. Joint line elevation after TKA might be a contributing factor as it alters knee kinematics.

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

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This review explores how soft fibrous tissues achieve their remarkable mechanical behavior through recurring structural motifs across multiple length scales. It highlights key advances in mimicking these features using fiber‐reinforced hydrogels and hierarchical composites, offering insights into mechanical compatibility, flaw tolerance, and tear ...

Compensatory Function of the Subtalar Joint for Lower Extremity Malalignment
Advances in Orthopedics, 2019 It is important to evaluate the subtalar joint and hip-knee-ankle alignment to understand lower extremity alignment. In this review, we focused on the compensatory changes in the subtalar joint alignment for the deformity of the knee and ankle joint ...
