Failed anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions have both increased posterior tibial slope and increased posterior tibial plateau offset [PDF]
Journal of Experimental OrthopaedicsPurpose This study introduces the posterior tibial plateau offset (PTO). It was hypothesised that (1) the PTO is reliably quantifiable and (2) correlates with the posterior tibial slope (PTS).

Proportional Topology Optimization under Reliability-based Constraints [PDF]
Journal of Applied and Computational Mechanics, 2022 Topology optimization is a methodology widely used in the design phase that has gained space in engineering. On the other hand, uncertainty is present in material properties, loads, and boundary conditions in practically any design.

Coupling of a core post-translational pacemaker to a slave transcription/translation feedback loop in a circadian system. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2010 Cyanobacteria are the only model circadian clock system in which a circadian oscillator can be reconstituted in vitro. The underlying circadian mechanism appears to comprise two subcomponents: a post-translational oscillator (PTO) and a transcriptional ...

Pto kinase binds two domains of AvrPtoB and its proximity to the effector E3 ligase determines if it evades degradation and activates plant immunity. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2014 The tomato--Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst)--pathosystem is one of the best understood models for plant-pathogen interactions. Certain wild relatives of tomato express two closely related members of the same kinase family, Pto and Fen, which ...
