A COMPARISON OF THE GLYCOSAMINOGLYCANS OF WEIGHT-BEARING AND NON-WEIGHT BEARING HUMAN DERMIS

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1977
Twenty-six samples of human skin from three non-weight-bearing and 27 samples from three weight-bearing sites were obtained at autopsy from 11 subjects varying in age from 4 to 91 years. The dermis was idssected free of other tissues and after proteolytic digestion, the glycosaminoglycans were isolated quantitatively by ion-exchange chromatography ...

Secondary motions of the knee during weight bearing and non‐weight bearing activities [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, 2004
AbstractThe objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that during a weight bearing activity such as walking, a dynamic range (envelope of motion) exists in the relationship between the secondary knee motions (anterior‐posterior (AP) translation, internalexternal (IE) rotation, and abduction‐adduction (Ab‐Adduction)) and knee flexion angle.
