Complications of Resection Arthroplasty in Two-Stage Revision for the Treatment of Periprosthetic Hip Joint Infection [PDF]

, 2019
Little data is available regarding complications associated with resection arthroplasty in the treatment of hip periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). We assessed complications during and after two-stage revision using resection arthroplasty.

Does Long‐Term Lower Extremity Strength Training in Adults With Knee Osteoarthritis and Varus Alignment Reduce Knee Joint Loading During Gait?

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We examined whether 18 months of strength training in individuals with knee varus alignment and medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) reduced knee joint loads during walking compared to an attention control group. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that compared the effects of strength training to a ...

Experimental Evaluation of 100Cr6 Steel Microindented Surfaces Under Lubricated Nonconformal Point Contacts

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.

An exploratory evaluation of psychological factors in the rejection of upper limb prostheses : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Psychology at Massey University [PDF]

, 1983
This study investigated the reactions of arm amputees to their prostheses and explored possible reasons for these reactions. A questionnaire was constructed to determine the use to which the recipients put their prostheses. A preliminary validation study

Effect of 3D printing technology, build orientation, and shell thickness on the accuracy of full-arch dental models for fixed dental prostheses: an in vitro study

Scientific Reports
The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of 3D printing technology (SLA vs. DLP), print orientation (0°, 10°, 20°), and model shell thickness (2 mm vs. 4 mm) on the manufacturing accuracy of full-arch dental casts with teeth preparations.

Thalamic Visual Prosthesis

IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2016
Glaucoma is a neurological disorder leading to blindness initially through the loss of retinal ganglion cells, followed by loss of neurons higher in the visual system. Some work has been undertaken to develop prostheses for glaucoma patients targeting tissues along the visual pathway, including the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) of the thalamus, but ...
