Surgical approaches to the capitellum: a comparative anatomic study
Alexandre Terrier, Patrick Goetti, Frédéric Vauclair
Background: Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the humeral capitellum is an important cause of elbow disability in young athletes. Large and unstable lesions sometimes require joint reconstruction with osteochondral autograft. Several approaches have been ...
Mosby-Elsevier2024Can lateral tenodesis improve the rotational stability of the ACL reconstruction? A finite element analysis
One of the most common knee injuries is the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) rupture with severe implications on knee stability. The usual treatment is the ACL Reconstruction (ACLR) surgery where the surgeon replaces the torn ligament with a graft in an ef ...
Public Library Science2024Synergetic Support of Cartilage Homeostasis via Coupled Thermal-Hydrostatic Pressure Stimuli
Cartilage homeostasis, crucial for musculoskeletal function, is orchestrated by interconnected biophysical cues. In healthy cartilage, repetitive compressive loading not only elicits a range of mechanical stimuli but also induces a gradual transient temper ...
EPFL2024Three-dimensional evaluation of the transverse rotator cuff muscle's resultant force angle in relation to scapulohumeral subluxation and glenoid vault morphology in nonpathological shoulders
Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Patrick Goetti, Matthieu Boubat
Background: Static posterior subluxation of the humeral head (SPSH) results in glenohumeral osteoarthritis. Treatment strategies for SPSH with or without resulting osteoarthritis remain challenging. There is growing interest in evaluating the rotator cuff ...
Mosby-Elsevier2024Enhancing Chondrocyte Biosynthetic Activities: Harnessing the Power of Loading-Induced Evolved Temperature
Chondrocytes within articular cartilage possess the capacity to perceive and react to signals generated by the typical load-bearing actions of daily life, such as walking or running. Articular cartilage is predominantly oriented toward compression-based fu ...
EPFL2024Glenohumeral joint force prediction with deep learning
Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Patrick Goetti, Philippe Büchler
Deep learning models (DLM) are efficient replacements for computationally intensive optimization techniques. Musculoskeletal models (MSM) typically involve resource-intensive optimization processes for determining joint and muscle forces. Consequently, DLM ...
London2024Non-invasive spinal cord electrical stimulation for arm and hand function in chronic tetraplegia: a safety and efficacy trial
Grégoire Courtine, Jordan Squair, Markus Maximilian Rieger
Cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to permanent impairment of arm and hand functions. Here we conducted a prospective, single-arm, multicenter, open-label, non-significant risk trial that evaluated the safety and efficacy of ARCEX Therapy to improve a ...
Nature Portfolio2024Efficacy and safety of transcranial direct current stimulation to the ipsilesional motor cortex in subacute stroke (NETS): a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
Background Each year, five million people are left disabled after stroke. Upper -extremity (UE) dysfunction is a leading problem. Neuroplasticity can be enhanced by non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) but evidence from large, randomized multicenter trial ...
Elsevier2024An adaptive phase field approach to 3D internal crack growth in rocks
Alexandra Roma Larisa Kushnir, Tao Xu, Michael Heap
Modeling the 3D internal crack under compression entails complex fracture mechanics (mode I-II-III fracture), resulting in substantial computational costs and challenges in characterizing fracture morphology characterization for Phase Field Method (PFM) si ...
20243D Geomechanical Modelling of CO2 Storage with Focus on Fault Stability
Jean-François Molinari, Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Guillaume Anciaux, Nicolas Richart, Emil Gallyamov
A digital twin of the subsurface is crucial for all performance and risks assessments of a CO2 storage activities. The goal of the project is to develop an efficient fully-coupled geomechanical simulator for CO2 storage capable to model fluid flow along cr ...
