HU308 Mitigates Osteoarthritis by Stimulating Sox9‐Related Networks of Carbohydrate Metabolism

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 154-170, January 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by progressive, irreversible erosion of articular cartilage accompanied by severe pain and immobility. This study aimed to assess the effect and mechanism of action of HU308, a selective cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2) agonist, in preventing OA‐related joint damage. To test the assumption that HU308 could

Evaluation of automated radiostereometric image registration in total knee arthroplasty utilizing a synthetic‐based and a CT‐based volumetric model

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 436-446, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Radiostereometic analysis (RSA) is an accurate method for rigid body pose (position and orientation) in three‐dimensional space. Traditionally, RSA is based on insertion of periprosthetic tantalum markers and manual implant contour selection which limit clinically application.
