A Tale of Two Loads: Modulation of IL-1 Induced Inflammatory Responses of Meniscal Cells in Two Models of Dynamic Physiologic Loading

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Meniscus injuries are highly prevalent, and both meniscus injury and subsequent surgery are linked to the development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA).

Meniscus-Inspired Self-Lubricating and Friction-Responsive Hydrogels for Protecting Articular Cartilage and Improving Exercise

open access: yes, 2023
Meniscus injuries are associated with the degeneration of cartilage and development of osteoarthritis (OA). It is challenging to protect articular cartilage and improve exercise when a meniscus injury occurs.

Double-Layered Lateral Meniscus in an 8-Year-Old Child: Report of a Rare Case

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, 2016
Reports of congenital abnormalities of the lateral meniscus include discoid meniscus, accessory meniscus, double-layered meniscus, and ring-shaped meniscus. Particularly, only a few cases of double-layered meniscus have been reported. We report a case of

Identification and validation of pivotal genes related to age-related meniscus degeneration based on gene expression profiling analysis and in vivo and in vitro models detection

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2021
Background The componential and structural change in the meniscus with aging would increase the tissue vulnerability of the meniscus, which would induce meniscus tearing.

Evaporative Heat and Mass Transfer from the Free Surface of a Liquid Wicked into a Bed of Spheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Evaporation of ethanol from square packed arrays of 3.95 mm diameter copper spheres in a transparent, enclosed chamber is investigated. The enclosure ensures that relatively saturated vapor conditions exist near the free surface. The desired heat flux is

Flow phenomena in fixed-gap and gravure roll coating systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
This thesis describes investigations into a number of coating processes using experimental, analytical and computational techniques. The first problem, considered experimentally, is that of reverse roll coating with a liquid reservoir positioned ...

An anatomically shaped medial meniscus prosthesis is able to partially restore the contact mechanics of the meniscectomized knee joint

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2022
Purpose The aim of this study was to determine whether a flexible medial meniscus prosthesis is more capable of sharing loads with the direct tibiofemoral cartilage contact than the stiffer first‐generation prosthesis.

Meniscus-Guided 3D Microprinting of Pure MetalOrganic Frameworks with High Gas-Uptake Performance

open access: yes, 2022
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are a promising nanoporous functional material system; however, the practicality of shaping freeform MOF monoliths, while retaining their porosity, remains a challenge.
