An Organ‐on‐Chip Platform for Strain‐Controlled, Tissue‐Specific Compression of Cartilage and Mineralized Osteochondral Interface to Study Mechanical Overloading in Osteoarthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanically active OsteoChondral Unit (OCU)‐on‐Chip platform mimicking the OCU's functional anatomy and the strain gradient across the osteochondral interface is presented. Upon compartment‐specific hyperphysiological compression, the model replicates mechanisms observed in osteoarthritis (OA) progression, such as calcium crystal accumulation ...

Core training and motion capacity: a study on joint range in amateur soccer

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Kinesiology, 2023
This study investigated the effects of core training on functional movement capacity and range of motion in amateur soccer players. Twenty-nine amateur male volunteer soccer players participated in the study, including the experimental group (n = 15; age = 20.13 ± 1.55) and the control group (n = 14; age = 19.39 ± 1.08). The assumption of normality was
