Does structural leg-length discrepancy affect postural control? Preliminary study

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2017
Background Leg-length inequality results in an altered position of the spine and pelvis. Previous studies on the influence of leg asymmetry on postural control have been inconclusive.

Intra and intersession repeatability and reliability of dynamic parameters in pressure platform assessments on subjects with simulated leg length discrepancy. A cross-sectional research

open access: yesSão Paulo Medical Journal, 2021
BACKGROUND: Leg length discrepancy (LLD) may play a key role in exercise biomechanics. Although the Podoprint platform has been used in dynamic pressure studies, there are no data regarding the reliability and repeatability of dynamic measurements under ...

Additional use of anti-rotation U-blade (RC) decreases lag screw sliding and limb length inequality in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The purpose of this study is to compare the cut-out rate and sliding distance associated with limb length inequality between operations using a standard non-sliding lag screw versus those using a non-sliding lag screw with U-blade (RC) in the Gamma3 nail.

METAL ION RELEASE ACCORDING TO LEG LENGTH DISCREPANCY IN CERAMIC-ON-METAL HIP ARTHROPLASTY

open access: yesActa Ortopédica Brasileira, 2023
Objective The ceramic-on-metal (CoM) bearing has the theoretical advantages over ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) and metal-on-metal bearings. This study aimed to analyze factors affecting the metal ion release of CoM bearings and compare clinical performance ...

Is a long leg a risk for hip or knee osteoarthritis?: A 29-year follow-up study of 193 individuals

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica, 2017
Background and purpose — 7% of the asymptomatic population has leg-length inequality (LLI) greater than 12 mm. It has been proposed that LLI of >5 mm can be associated with an increased risk of osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee and hip.

Assessment of the quality of life in patients with varying degrees of equalization of lower limb length discrepancy treated with Ilizarov method

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2021
Background Inequalities in leg length result in functional disorders, as they impair the biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system, significantly reducing the quality of life (QoL).

Location of the elevation axis in a large optical telescope [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Proposed designs for the next generation of large optical telescopes favor a tripod or quadrupod secondary support, and a primary supported from the back, but it is not yet clear whether the elevation axis should be in front of the primary or behind it ...
