Medial and lateral menisci vascularization level in advanced osteoarthritis of the knee [PDF]
BMC Musculoskeletal DisordersBackground Osteoarthritis of the knee is a disease widespread across the world, which leads to disability. The vascularization of the menisci is usually divided into three zones, but it can be vascularized in each zone, which is linked with the ...

International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2022 Introduction: The shape of the menisci is crescentic. There are variations in the morphology of the menisci. The knowledge about these variants is necessary for the radiologists and orthopaedic surgeons to discriminate between the normal variants and ...

Morphological study of the menisci of the knee joint in human cadaver in Jharkhand population
Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2022 Introduction: Sports are the leading cause of joint injuries, particularly in the knees. Knee menisci are an important functional unit that aids in load distribution and hence reduces stress on the knee joint.

The glycosaminoglycans of canine menisci [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1981 The semilunar menisci of the knee have an important mechanical function and are commonly involved in joint degeneration. However, previously published analyses of the compositions of normal and degenerate human menisci vary widely. In the present study the glycosaminoglycan content and composition of selected areas of the menisci of eight normal knees ...

Discrete modelling of capillary mechanisms in multi-phase granular media [PDF]
, 2009 A numerical study of multi-phase granular materials based upon micro-mechanical modelling is proposed. Discrete element simulations are used to investigate capillary induced effects on the friction properties of a granular assembly in the pendular regime.
