Prior anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: Comparable outcomes but reduced knee flexion after robotic functionally aligned total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is technically demanding and has been associated with higher complication rates. This study aimed to evaluate whether patients with prior ACLR undergoing image‐based robotic‐assisted TKA performed under functional alignment (FA) principles achieve ...

Femoral component internal rotation in functionally aligned robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty does not impair functional outcomes

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Femoral component internal rotation tightens the medial flexion gap and medialises femoral trochlea position, thus influencing patellofemoral tracking and function. Therefore, one of the tenets of mechanically aligned total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been to avoid femoral component internal rotation relative to the transepicondylar ...

Afforestation Partially Offsets Losses of Soil Conservation Services and Carbon Stock From Direct and Indirect Urban Expansion in China

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban expansion has exerted both direct and indirect impacts on natural land and ecosystem services it supports, driven by increasing population and food demand, yet these underlying pathways remain insufficiently distinguished. Here, we quantified the losses of soil conservation services (water erosion regulation and sandstorm prevention) and

Ecological Challenges and Strategic Responses to China's Quantitative Rigidity of Cultivated Land Protection

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Balancing food security and ecological sustainability has become a critical challenge for land governance in rapidly urbanizing countries. China has successfully maintained national cultivated land quantity through a comprehensive farmland protection regime.

Future Soil Erosion Under Combined CMIP6 Climate Projections and Land Use/Land Cover Change: A RUSLE‐Based Assessment of the Kampe Omi Dam Basin in Nigeria

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion remains a major environmental challenge in Nigeria, driven by the combined effects of climate variability and land use/land cover (LULC) changes. Understanding future dynamics is essential for effective soil conservation planning.
