Mimicking Loading-Induced Cartilage Self-Heating in Vitro Promotes Matrix Formation in Chondrocyte-Laden Constructs with Different Mechanical Properties
Dominique Pioletti, Peyman Karami, Naser Nasrollahzadeh Mamaghani, Theofanis Stampoultzis, Yanheng Guo
Articular cartilage presents a mechanically sensitive tissue. Chondrocytes, the sole cell type residing in the tissue, perceive and react to physical cues as signals that significantly modulate their behavior. Hyaline cartilage is a connective tissue with ...
2023No difference in 13-year survival after medial pivot or central pivot mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty. A propensity matched comparative analysis
Purpose The present study was designed to evaluate the long-term results (more than 10 years) of mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and to compare the survival of medial pivot axis (MPA) and central pivot axis (CPA) TKAs. The primary hypothesis w ...
2020Pedicle screw navigation using surface digitization on the Microsoft HoloLens
Davide Scaramuzza, Jess Snedeker
Purpose In spinal fusion surgery, imprecise placement of pedicle screws can result in poor surgical outcome or may seriously harm a patient. Patient-specific instruments and optical systems have been proposed for improving precision through surgical naviga ...
2019The ultimate and proximate mechanisms driving the evolution of long tails in forest deer mice
Understanding both the role of selection in driving phenotypic change and its underlying genetic basis remain major challenges in evolutionary biology. Here, we use modern tools to revisit a classic system of local adaptation in the North American deer mou ...
Wiley2017Anatomically-standardized maps reveal distinct patterns of cartilage thickness with increasing severity of medial compartment knee osteoarthritis
While cartilage thickness alterations are a central element of knee osteoarthritis (OA), differences among disease stages are still incompletely understood. This study aimed to quantify the spatial-variations in cartilage thickness using anatomically-stand ...
Wiley-Blackwell2017Shear Stress Metrics and Their Relation to Atherosclerosis: An In Vivo Follow-up Study in Atherosclerotic Mice
It is generally accepted that low and oscillatory wall shear stress favors the initiation and development of atherosclerosis. However, a quantitative analysis of the association between shear stress metrics at baseline and lesion prevalence at a later stag ...
