Outcome evaluation of ankle osteoarthritis treatments: Plantar pressure analysis during relatively long-distance walking

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Xavier Crevoisier, Hossein Rouhani

Background: This study aimed to use plantar pressure analysis in relatively long-distance walking for objective outcome evaluation of ankle osteoarthritis treatments, i.e., ankle arthrodesis and total ankle replacement. Methods: Forty-seven subjects in fou ...

Phosphocreatine line with changes in localised 31P MRS of exercising muscle at 7T

Rolf Gruetter, Christine Nabuurs

The aim was to investigate changes in the line width of high-energy phosphates solely originating from the intramyocellular compartment by temporally resolved localised 31P-MRS after aerobic calf muscle exercise. Semi-Laser [2] localised 31P-MRS of gastroc ...

Ambulatory Assessment of Foot Kinematics and Kinetics

Hossein Rouhani

Two surgical treatments exist for ankle osteoarthritis (AO): ankle arthrodesis (AA) and total ankle replacement (TAR). Due to advantages and drawbacks of each treatment, decision making about these treatments is still a clinical question and thus, their ou ...

Dislocation in total knee arthroplasty

Aurélien Gallice

Mobile-bearing total knee arthroplasty has potential advantages over fixed- bearing prostheses that may lead to an improvement of the range of motion and inferior long-term polyethylene wear. However, the potential disadvantages include the dislocation of ...

Phase-dependent modulation of percutaneously elicited multisegmental muscle responses after spinal cord injury

Grégoire Courtine

Phase-dependent modulation of monosynaptic reflexes has been reported for several muscles of the lower limb of uninjured rats and humans. To assess whether this step-phase-dependent modulation can be mediated at the level of the human spinal cord, we compa ...

During walking elders increase efforts at proximal joints and keep low kinetics at the ankle

Silvestro Micera

Background: Both ageing and speed definitely affect gait patterns. Since most of the comparisons between young and elderly people while walking have been carried out at different "self-selected" speeds, results might be biased by a lack of control of the e ...

Characterization of EMG Patterns From Proximal Arm Muscles During Object- and Orientation-Specific Grasps

Silvestro Micera

Reach-to-grasp tasks are composed of several actions that are more and more considered as simultaneously controlled by the central nervous system in a feedforward manner (at least for well-known activities). If this hypothesis is correct, during prehension ...

Epidural spinal cord stimulation plus quipazine administration enable stepping in complete spinal adult rats

Grégoire Courtine

We hypothesized that epidural spinal cord stimulation (ES) and quipazine (a serotonergic agonist) modulates the excitability of flexor and extensor related intraspinal neural networks in qualitatively unique, but complementary, ways to facilitate locomotio ...

Modulation of multisegmental monosynaptic responses in a variety of leg muscles during walking and running in humans

Grégoire Courtine

Motor responses evoked by stimulating the spinal cord percutaneously between the T11 and T12 spinous processes were studied in eight human subjects during walking and running. Stimulation elicited responses bilaterally in the biceps femoris, vastus lateral ...

Spinal cord reflexes induced by epidural spinal cord stimulation in normal awake rats

Grégoire Courtine

Motor responses in hindlimb muscles to epidural spinal cord stimulation in normal awake rats during bipedal standing were studied. Stimulation at L2 or S1 induced simultaneous and bilateral responses in the vastus lateralis, semitendinosus, tibialis anteri ...
