Associations of Sleep and Shift Work With Osteoarthritis Risk

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Daily rhythms may be critical for maintaining homeostasis of joint tissues. We aimed to investigate the relationships among circadian clock disruption, sleep, and osteoarthritis (OA) risk in humans. Methods In the UK Biobank, a prospective 500,000–person cohort, we evaluated associations among sleep duration, sleeplessness/insomnia, and shift

Influence of frictions on gait optimization of a biped robot with an anthropomorphic knee

open access: yes, 2013
This paper presents the energy consumption of a biped robot with a new modelled structure of knees which is called rolling knee (RK). The dynamic model, the actuators and the friction coefficients of the gear box are known. The optimal energy consumption

Variability of the femoral mechanical-anatomical axis angle and its implications in primary and revision total knee arthroplasty: an analysis of 2,156 knees using a deep learning tool

open access: yesBone & Joint Open
Aims: Distal femoral resection in conventional total knee arthroplasty (TKA) utilizes an intramedullary guide to determine coronal alignment, commonly planned for 5° of valgus.

Evaluating a Pragmatic Strength Alternative for Frailty Measurement and Assessing Its Predictive Capacity Against Established Frailty Instruments in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Frailty occurs prematurely in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is associated with poor health outcomes. We compared the performance of four frailty instruments, including a pragmatic alternative measure using chair sit‐to‐stand (STS), and evaluated their abilities to predict poor health outcomes.

Crack growth in polyconvex materials

open access: yes, 2010
We discuss a model for crack propagation in an elastic body, where the crack path is described a priori. In particular, we develop in the framework of finite-strain elasticity a rate-independent model for crack evolution which is based on the Griffith ...

Interobserver reliability of Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) phenotype classification: external validation using data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative

open access: yesBone & Joint Open
Aims: Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) phenotyping is gaining momentum in research and clinical practice to understand individualized knee alignments and predict knee balance in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Does Long‐Term Lower Extremity Strength Training in Adults With Knee Osteoarthritis and Varus Alignment Reduce Knee Joint Loading During Gait?

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We examined whether 18 months of strength training in individuals with knee varus alignment and medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) reduced knee joint loads during walking compared to an attention control group. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that compared the effects of strength training to a ...

Comparison of T1rho relaxation times between ACL‐reconstructed knees and contralateral uninjured knees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
PURPOSE: The goal of this study is to compare the cartilage of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-reconstructed and uninjured contralateral knees using T 1ρ MRI 12-16 months after ACL reconstructions. METHODS: Eighteen patients with ACL-reconstructed knees

Rethinking the role of cartilage loss: the influence of intra- and extra-articular factors on symptoms in advanced knee osteoarthritis

open access: yesBone & Joint Open
Aims: Understanding the factors contributing to pain and function limitation in knee osteoarthritis (OA) is crucial to optimize the individual patient’s management.

Moderators of the Effects of Exercise and Manual Therapy for People With Knee and Hip Osteoarthritis: A Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to investigate potential moderators influencing the effects of manual therapy and exercise therapy on pain and functional outcomes in individuals with knee and/or hip osteoarthritis, using data from the MOA trial. This is a secondary analysis of data from the MOA trial that compares the clinical effectiveness of manual ...
