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 ...

Estrogen and Progesterone Exhibit Distinct Yet Coordinated Roles in the Regulation of Tendon Extracellular Matrix Remodeling

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is required for the proper healing, strengthening, and maintenance of tendon tissue. There are well‐documented sex differences in tendon injury rates and healing outcomes, often attributed to either innate differences in tissue structure and resident cell signaling or the influence of sex hormones ...

Muscle Ultrasound

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives This study aims to investigate the potential use of noninvasive muscle ultrasound (US) for detecting early‐developing insulin resistance and lower muscle mass in adults with obesity. Methods Twenty subjects with obesity, without type 2 diabetes mellitus or prediabetes (mean body mass index [BMI] 34.1 ± 3.1 kg/m2, mean age 33 years, 65% male),

No difference in osteoarthritis, but less graft failures after 5 years, comparing anatomic double‐bundle to anatomic single‐bundle ACL reconstruction

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
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).

Influence of mollusk species on marine DELTA R determinations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Radiocarbon ages were measured on replicate samples of burnt grain and 5 mollusk species collected from a single sealed layer at an archaeological site (Hornish Point) on the west coast of South Uist, Scotland.

How statistically fragile are randomized controlled trials comparing quadriceps tendon autografts with hamstring or bone‐patellar tendon‐bone autografts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction?

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To determine the statistical fragility of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) which compare the use of quadriceps tendon (QT) autografts to either hamstring tendon (HT) or bone‐patellar tendon‐bone (BPTB) autografts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).

Fermions in higher representations. Some results about SU(2) with adjoint fermions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We discuss the lattice formulation of gauge theories with fermions in arbitrary representations of the color group, and present the implementation of the RHMC algorithm for simulating dynamical Wilson fermions.

Baryon currents in QCD with compact dimensions

open access: yes, 2007
On a compact space with non-trivial cycles, for sufficiently small values of the radii of the compact dimensions, SU(N) gauge theories coupled with fermions in the fundamental representation spontaneously break charge conjugation, time reversal and ...

Marine radiocarbon reservoir effects for the Mesolithic and Medieval Periods in the Western Isles of Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This article presents new values for the Scottish marine radiocarbon reservoir effect (MRE) during the Mesolithic at 4540–4240 BC (6490–6190 BP) and the Medieval period at AD 1460–1630 (490–320 BP).

Adapting the Dejour classification of trochlear dysplasia from qualitative radiograph‐ and CT‐based assessments to quantitative MRI‐based measurements

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
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 ...
