Peak knee joint moments accurately predict medial and lateral knee contact forces in patients with valgus malalignment

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Compressive knee joint contact force during walking is thought to be related to initiation and progression of knee osteoarthritis. However, joint loading is often evaluated with surrogate measures, like the external knee adduction moment, due to the ...

Finite Element Analysis of Decompression Effect of Custom Additively Manufactured Knee Orthosis Compartments

open access: yesShanghai Jiaotong Daxue xuebao, 2023
To simulate the biomechanical changes of knee joint before and after wearing the orthosis in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) by constructing a finite element model of the knee joint and a customized additively manufactured knee orthosis, so as to

Individual Muscle Contributions to the Axial Knee Joint Contact Force During Normal Walking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Muscles are significant contributors to the high joint forces developed in the knee during human walking. Not only do muscles contribute to the knee joint forces by acting to compress the joint, but they also develop joint forces indirectly through their

A 73‐Year‐Old Man With Several Years of Difficulty Climbing Stairs and Frequent Tripping

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 73‐year‐old man presented with progressive weakness and atrophy predominantly affecting the distal finger flexors and quadriceps muscles. Electrophysiological studies demonstrated mixed myogenic and neurogenic features. Muscle MRI showed inflammatory changes, and muscle biopsy revealed granulomatous myositis with histologic features ...

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy due to Biallelic Pathogenic Variants in PIGM

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective PIGM encodes a critical enzyme in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchor biosynthesis pathway. While promoter‐region mutations in PIGM have been associated with a relatively mild phenotype characterized by portal vein thrombosis and absence seizures, recent evidence suggests that coding‐region mutations result in a more severe
