ABSTRACT Lower strength and higher passive stiffness of the quadriceps have been associated with a higher risk of knee osteoarthritis/pain in aging populations. It is proposed that altered quadriceps properties would cause excessive knee loads, thus contributing to knee mechanical damages, but the relevant evidence is limited.

ABSTRACT A history of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and high body mass index (BMI) are strong risk factors for incident knee osteoarthritis. Limited research has evaluated the interaction between ACLR and high BMI on limb‐level loading and early deleterious changes in cartilage health.

Advanced Testing Protocols Simulate Failures and Validate Antioxidant Polyethylene in Ankle Implants
Abstract Total ankle replacement (TAR) has become an effective treatment for end‐stage ankle osteoarthritis. Multiple factors, including patient characteristics, surgical technique, alignment, and bearing surfaces, influence TAR survivorship. Polyethylene (PE) fatigue is a key consideration in improving outcomes.

ABSTRACT Impaired quadriceps function influences lower limb biomechanics following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). This often results in stiff limb loading which leads to the development of knee osteoarthritis. Greater hamstrings/quadriceps co‐activation is common after ACLR and is, in part, responsible for impaired quadriceps ...

Ultrasound Neuromodulation (Low‐Intensity Focused Ultrasound) to Treat Knee Osteoarthritis Pain
Low‐intensity focused ultrasound is a non‐invasive neuromodulation technique that delivers mechanical forces to a deep location within the body through acoustic pressure waves without affecting tissue between the transducer and focal target. Preliminary studies involving healthy volunteers suggest focused ultrasound reversibly prevents action potential

ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative osteoarthropathy with an unclear pathogenesis. Circular RNA (circRNA) has been reported to be associated with OA progression. This study aims to explore the role and potential mechanism of hsa_circ_0006646 in OA. Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β)‐induced human chondrocytes were used as the cell model of OA. RT‐

Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence of knee osteoarthritis (OA) between the anatomic single‐bundle (SB) and anatomic double‐bundle (DB) anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction technique after 5‐year follow‐up (FU).

Abstract Purpose To adapt the current D. Dejour trochlear dysplasia classification (v2.0) to only rely on quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurements (v3.0) to maximize objectivity and repeatability. Methods A consecutive series of adult knee MRIs were divided into objective patellar instability (OPI, n = 127) or controls (n = 103 ...
