Morphology and function of the cruciate ligaments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The cranial cruciate ligament (CrCL) attaches to the axial aspect of the lateral femoral condyle, very close to the articular margin. The caudal cruciate ligament (CaCL) is slightly longer and broader than the CrCL. Both the CrCL and the CaCL are covered

Current Landscape of Short‐T2 Imaging Techniques in the Musculoskeletal System: The Past, Present and Future

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventional MRI is limited in imaging tissues with short T2 relaxation times, such as bone, ligaments, and cartilage, due to their rapid signal decay. This limitation has spurred the development of specialized MRI techniques designed specifically for short‐T2 tissue imaging.

Compositional Variation and Functional Mechanism of Exosomes in the Articular Microenvironment in Knee Osteoarthritis

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2020
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a major cause of disability worldwide with increasing age. Knee OA (KOA) is the most prevalent type of OA. Recently, it is considered that KOA is a whole joint disease, including articular cartilage, subchondral bone, synovium ...

Three-dimensional anatomy of the ostrich (Struthio camelus) knee joint [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The three-dimensional anatomy of the ostrich (Struthio camelus) knee (femorotibial, femorofibular, and femoropatellar) joint has scarcely been studied, and could elucidate certain mechanobiological properties of sesamoid bones.

Reduced Muscle Strength Can Alter the Impact of Gait Modifications on Knee Cartilage Mechanics

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Muscle strength can substantially influence knee joint loading, stability, and cartilage biomechanics, all of which are important factors in the onset and progression of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Noninvasive rehabilitation methods, such as gait modifications, are suggested to effectively alter knee joint loading, potentially helping to ...

Matrix‐assisted autologous chondrocyte transplantation is effective at mid/long‐term for knee lesions: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This systematic review with meta‐analysis evaluates the long‐term efficacy of matrix‐assisted autologous chondrocyte transplantation (MACT) in terms of functional scores using scaffolds made of hyaluronic acid (HA) or collagen (C). Methods Nineteen articles met the eligibility criteria for the analysis.

Validation of CLASS MRI for personalized ACL footprints identification

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose In modern anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery, the focus is usually on anatomical reconstruction to restore the natural kinematics of the knee. The individual optimal positioning of the ACL footprints (FPs) in primary surgery is still controversial and, especially in revision surgery, difficult to realize surgically.

Biomechanics of the natural, arthritic, and replaced human ankle joint

open access: yesJournal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2014
The human ankle joint complex plays a fundamental role in gait and other activities of daily living. At the same time, it is a very complicated anatomical system but the large literature of experimental and modelling studies has not fully described the ...
