Can 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 Science2024Three-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-Elsevier2024Crash test-based assessment of injury risks for adults and children when colliding with personal mobility devices and service robots
Aude Billard, Diego Felipe Paez Granados
Autonomous mobility devices such as transport, cleaning, and delivery robots, hold a massive economic and social benefit. However, their deployment should not endanger bystanders, particularly vulnerable populations such as children and older adults who ar ...
2022Evolutionary Algorithm Optimization of Staggered Biological or Biomimetic Composites Using the Random Fuse Model
Roberto Guarino, Gianluca Costagliola, Federico Bosia
In Nature, biological materials such as nacre, bone, and dentin display an enhanced mechanical strength due to their structure characterized by hard inclusions embedded in a soft matrix. This structure has inspired the design of artificial materials with o ...
2020HealthSit: Designing Posture-Based Interaction to Promote Exercise during Fitness Breaks
Pearl Pu Faltings, Yu Chen, Yuan Lu
This research was motivated by a desire to help office workers change their sedentary behavior because a prolonged sedentary posture increases the risks of developing musculoskeletal injuries and chronic diseases, thus threatening their physical and psycho ...
TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC2019Cortico-Muscular Coherence Is Reduced Acutely Post-stroke and Increases Bilaterally During Motor Recovery: A Pilot Study
José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Serafeim Perdikis, Tiffany Corbet
Motor recovery following stroke is believed to necessitate alteration in functional connectivity between cortex and muscle. Cortico-muscular coherence has been proposed as a potential biomarker for post-stroke motor deficits, enabling a quantification of r ...
2019Standing Height as a Prevention Measure for Overuse Injuries of the Back in Alpine Ski Racing: A Kinematic and Kinetic Study of Giant Slalom
Kamiar Aminian, Benedikt Fasel
Background: In alpine ski racing, typical loading patterns of the back include a combined occurrence of spinal bending, torsion, and high peak loads. These factors are known to be associated with high spinal disc loading and have been suggested to be attri ...
2018A 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 ...
EPFL2018Alignment of collagen fiber in knitted silk scaffold for functional massive rotator cuff repair
Weiliang Shen, Ting Zhu, Jiayun Huang
Rotator cuff tear is one of the most common types of shoulder injuries, often resulting in pain and physical debilitation. Allogeneic tendon-derived decellularized matrices do not have appropriate pore size and porosity to facilitate cell infiltration, whi ...
Elsevier2017Damage of eukaryotic cells by the pore-forming toxin sticholysin II: Consequences of the potassium efflux
Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Sylvia Ho
Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) form holes in membranes causing one of the most catastrophic damages to a target cell. Target organisms have evolved a regulated response against PFTs damage including cell membrane repair. This ability of cells strongly depends ...
