Distal femoral morphology as a risk factor for osteoarthritis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of disability affecting millions of adults in the United States, commonly resulting in the need for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to restore mobility and quality of life. This study investigates potential differences in baseline distal femoral shape between individuals who received TKA due to OA and a ...

Review of current knee biomechanical modeling techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper we are going to present an essential modification of an existing analytical model. The model creation normally starts with a simplified, less complex analytical model, where the phenomena can be easily interpreted, checked and controlled ...

Treatment of failed articular cartilage reconstructive procedures of the knee: A systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Symptomatic articular cartilage lesions of the knee are common and are being treated surgically with increasing frequency. While many studies have reported outcomes following a variety of cartilage restoration procedures, few have ...

Immunologic Profiling Suggests an Association Between Treg Cell Dysfunction and Pain in Knee Osteoarthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Pain is the hallmark symptom of osteoarthritis (OA), and its biologic drivers remain poorly understood. Although the role of innate immunity in OA has been extensively studied, the involvement of adaptive immunity, in particular Treg cells, is not well understood.

Patient-specific gait pattern in individuals with patellofemoral instability reduces knee joint loads

open access: yesScientific Reports
Patellofemoral instability is influenced by morphological factors and associated with compensational alterations in gait pattern. Recent simulation studies investigated the impact of knee morphology on the stability and loading of the patellofemoral ...

Pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets of trichorhinophalangeal syndrome; lessons obtained from animal studies

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is a rare genetic disease inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. It occurs in 1 in 100,000 people globally and is caused by several types of mutations of the TRPS1 gene. Since the first human patient was reported in 1966, typical and atypical pathologies, disease courses, and treatment case ...

Older age, higher BMI, female sex and meniscal repair are predictors of inferior patient‐reported outcomes 1 year after ACL reconstruction

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To identify predictors of inferior patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) 1 year after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and to examine whether these predictors differ by sex. We hypothesised that older age, female sex, and meniscectomy are associated with inferior PROs.

Quadriceps, hamstring and patella tendon autografts for primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction demonstrate similar clinical outcomes, including graft failure, joint laxity and complications: A systematic review with meta‐analysis of randomised controlled trials

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Graft failure following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) remains a significant challenge, driving discussion for optimal graft choice. Traditionally, hamstring tendon (HT) and bone‐patella tendon‐bone (BPTB) autografts have been favoured for ACLR. Recently, quadriceps tendon (QT) usage has increased.

Running Injuries Due to Strike Patterns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Running is a very repetitive activity that can lead to surmountable stresses to the body over time that could lead to injury. Running biomechanics can influence the effects that the body will experience.
