Efficient decellularization of equine tendon with preserved biomechanical properties and cytocompatibility for human tendon surgery indications
Dominique Pioletti, Nathalie Hirt-Burri, Jens Antons, Cédric Peneveyre, Anthony Grognuz, Pierre-Arnaud Aeberhard
Chronic and acute tendon injuries are frequent afflictions, for which treatment is often long and unsatisfactory. When facing extended injuries, matrices and scaffolds with sufficient biomechanical properties are required for surgical repair and could addi ...
2019A Closed-Loop EMG-Assisted Shoulder Model
The human shoulder is a complex musculoskeletal system. Knowledge about its kinematics and dynamics can help improve associated treatments. However, to date direct measurements of these quantities can be only granted through invasive investigations or expe ...
EPFL2018Selective Recruitment of Arm Motoneurons in Nonhuman Primates Using Epidural Electrical Stimulation of the Cervical Spinal Cord
Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch, Marco Capogrosso, Giuseppe Schiavone, Beatrice Barra, Camille Roux
Recovery of reaching and grasping ability is the priority for people with cervical spinal cord injury (SCI). Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) has shown promising results in improving motor control after SCI in various animal models and in humans. Nota ...
2018Fixed and mobile-bearing total ankle prostheses: Effect on tibial bone strain
Alexandre Terrier, Xavier Crevoisier, Maïka Réane Guillemin, Caroline Sieger Fernandes
Background Total ankle replacement is associated to a high revision rate. To improve implant survival, the potential advantage of prostheses with fixed bearing compared to mobile bearing is unclear. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis th ...
Elsevier2017Cement stress predictions after anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty are correlated with preoperative glenoid bone quality
Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Raphaël Rodolphe Obrist
Hypothesis: We hypothesized that biomechanical parameters typically associated with glenoid implant failure after anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) would be correlated with preoperative glenoid bone quality. Methods: We developed an objective aut ...
Elsevier2017EMG-based decoding of grasp gestures in reaching-to-grasping motions
