Different Kinematics of Knees with Varus and Valgus Deformities

, 2017
Few data exist of kinematics of knees with varus and valgus deformities combined with osteoarthritis. The purpose of this study was to reveal different (1) tibiofemoral kinematics, (2) medial and lateral gaps, and (3) condylar liftoff of osteoarthritic ...

Time History Gaussian Process Regression for Modeling the Dynamics of Ankle Exoskeleton User Comfort

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Exoskeletons need to be comfortable, but the perception of comfort may change over time. This study investigated if short‐term time history directly influences comfort. No previous trials’ input features were predictive of comfort. Including the previous trial's comfort score marginally improved model accuracy compared to a model using only the current

Classification of coronal plane alignment of arthritic and healthy knees in Japan

Purpose: There are geographic differences in the prevalence of coronal plane alignment of the knee (CPAK) phenotypes. This study aimed to evaluate the CPAK classification of healthy and arthritic knees in Japan.

Enhancing Amphibious Flipper‐Based Locomotion Through Terrain‐Dependent Bayesian Optimization of Central Pattern Generator Control

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A sea turtle‐inspired amphibious robot uses simulation‐guided optimization to adapt its flipper coordination to different environments. Sensitivity analysis and multiobjective Bayesian optimization identify terrain‐dependent controllers that are validated on hardware.

Combating Inflammation and Promoting Anabolism in Osteoarthritic Cartilage Defect With an MMP13‐Sensing Dual‐Drug Scaffold

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a widespread degenerative joint condition marked by progressive cartilage breakdown, and a chronic inflammatory microenvironment, where conventional therapies largely fail to halt disease progression. To address this unmet need, an intra‐articularly implantable, disease‐responsive scaffold was developed for combinatorial

Rationale for preoperative planning in the supine position based on variability in the joint line convergence angle before and after open-wedge high tibial osteotomy

Bone & Joint Open
Aims: In advanced medial knee osteoarthritis, lower limb alignment is assessed using weightbearing imaging, which reflects the joint line convergence angle (JLCA).

Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

Pain catastrophizing immediately after surgery predicts postoperative patient satisfaction one year after total knee arthroplasty

Bone & Joint Open
Aims: Patient satisfaction after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a key measure of clinical outcome. While preoperative pain catastrophizing is known to affect postoperative results, the impact of early postoperative catastrophizing remains unclear. This
