Variants within the MMP3 gene are associated with achilles tendinopathy: possible interaction with the COL5A1 gene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Objectives: Sequence variation within the COL5A1 and TNC genes are known to associate with Achilles tendinopathy. The primary aim of this case-control genetic association study was to investigate whether variants within the matrix metalloproteinase 3 ...

A Soft Wearable Robot with an Adjustable Twisted String Actuator and a Two‐Stage Transmission Mechanism for Manual Handling Tasks

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article proposes a soft wearable robot (WeaRo) to assist workers while executing manual handling tasks. With its innovative design, the WeaRo effectively assists multiple body parts during manual handling tasks while using a single motor. Furthermore, the components of the WeaRo are assembled onto a fabric‐based suit, ensuring high performance and

Platelet‐rich plasma versus corticosteroid injections in the management of patients with rotator cuff disease: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 7-20, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) is an alternative to corticosteroid (CS) injections in managing rotator cuff disease. This meta‐analysis investigated differences between PRP and CS for function and pain scores in significance and minimal clinical important difference (MCID).

An Offline‐Cascade‐Online Learning‐Based Algorithm for Distal Trajectory Estimation of Medical Continuum Manipulators

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An offline‐cascade‐online (OCO) estimation algorithm that achieves the distal trajectory estimation in unstructured working space and with long‐term visual occlusion is proposed. This OCO estimation algorithm cascades a backpropagation‐based offline learning and a radial basis function‐based online learning network, realizing the prior estimation and ...

Traumatic flexor tendon injuries

open access: yesDiagnostic and Interventional Imaging, 2015
The flexor system of the fingers consisting of flexor tendons and finger pulleys is a key anatomic structure for the grasping function. Athletes and manual workers are particularly at risk for closed injuries of the flexor system: ruptured pulleys, ruptures of the flexor digitorum profundus from its distal attachment ("jersey finger"), and less ...
