Raman microspectroscopy reveals unsaturation heterogeneity at the lipid droplet level and validates an in vitro model of bone marrow adipocyte subtypes

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Charles Christopher Bataclan, Vasco Ledebur de Antas de Campos, Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal, Daniel Naveed Tavakol

Bone marrow adipocytes (BMAds) constitute the most abundant stromal component of adult human bone marrow. Two subtypes of BMAds have been described, the more labile regulated adipocytes (rBMAds) and the more stable constitutive adipocytes (cBMAds), which d ...

Residual hip dysplasia in children: osseous and cartilaginous acetabular angles to guide further treatment-a pilot study

Katarzyna Pierzchala

Purpose In case of residual hip dysplasia (RHD) in children, pelvic radiographs are sometimes insufficient to precisely evaluate the entire coverage of the femoral head, when trying to decide on the need for further reconstructive procedures. Methods This ...

Bone orientation and position estimation errors using Cosserat point elements and least squares methods: Application to gait

Kamiar Aminian, Arnaud Barré

The aim of this study was to analyze the accuracy of bone pose estimation based on sub-clusters of three skin-markers characterized by triangular Cosserat point elements (TCPEs) and to evaluate the capability of four instantaneous physical parameters, whic ...

Evaluation of knee functional calibration with and without the effect of soft tissue artefact

Kamiar Aminian, Arnaud Barré

Functional calibration methods were devised to improve repeatability and accuracy of the knee flexion-extension axis, which is used to define the medio-lateral axis of the femur coordinate system in gait analysis. Repeatability of functional calibration me ...

Impact of the Femoral Head Position on Moment Arms in Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Parametric Finite Element Study

Alexandre Terrier, Valérie Parvex

Background: Although the importance of accurate femoral reconstruction to achieve a good functional outcome is well documented, quantitative data on the effects of a displacement of the femoral center of rotation on moment arms are scarce. The purpose of t ...

Elsevier2016

Medialization of the cup with a respective increase in femoral offset has been proposed in THA to increase abductor moment arms. Insofar as there are potential disadvantages to cup medialization, it is important to ascertain whether the purported biomechan ...

Sensitivity of hip tissues contact evaluation to the methods used for estimating the hip joint center of rotation

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Jérôme Schmid, Ehsan Arbabi

Computer-based simulations of human hip joints generally include investigating contacts happening among soft or hard tissues during hip movement. In many cases, hip movement is approximated as rotation about an estimated hip center. In this paper, we inves ...

Finite element analysis of knee squat with an osteochondral defect

Ernst Remij

In this work a 3D musculoskeletal model of the knee joint, that can simulate a squat movement, has been developed. Such a model would be useful to understand the biomechanics of the knee. The model consisted of all the the bones with their articular surfac ...

Colored visualization of shape differences between bones

Daniel Thalmann, Sofiane Sarni, Ik Soo Lim

This article addresses visualization of deformation or shape differences between bones while conventional visualization techniques are often about a single bone such as its 3D reconstruction. Given a pair of bones with a set of corresponding anatomical lan ...
