Wearable High-Density MXene-Bioelectronics for Neuromuscular Diagnostics, Rehabilitation, and Assistive Technologies

Silvestro Micera, Francesco Iberite, Eugenio Anselmino

High-density surface electromyography (HDsEMG) allows noninvasive muscle monitoring and disease diagnosis. Clinical translation of current HDsEMG technologies is hampered by cost, limited scalability, low usability, and minimal spatial coverage. Here, this ...

Expertise-Related Differences in Wrist Muscle Co-contraction in Drummers

Steffen Alexander Herff

Background and Aim:Drumming requires excellent motor control and temporal coordination. Deploying specific muscle activation patterns may help achieve these requirements. Muscle activation patterns that involve reciprocal contraction of antagonist muscles ...

Patellar bone strain after total knee arthroplasty is correlated with bone mineral density and body mass index

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Adeliya Latypova, Elham Taghizadeh, Philippe Büchler

Patella-related complications after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remain a major clinical concern. Previous studies have suggested that increased postoperative patellar bone strain could be related to such complications, but there is limited knowledge on p ...

Relationships between cartilage thickness and subchondral bone mineral density in non-osteoarthritic and severely osteoarthritic knees: In vivo concomitant 3D analysis using CT arthrography

Julien Favre

Objective: To test whether subchondral bone mineral density (sBMD) and cartilage thickness (CTh) of femoral condyles are correlated in knees without and with severe medial femorotibial osteoarthritis (OA), using a subregional analysis with computerized tom ...

Importance of trabecular anisotropy in finite element predictions of patellar strain after Total Knee Arthroplasty

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Adeliya Latypova

Patellar fracture and anterior knee pain remain major complications after Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA). Patient-specific finite element (FE) models should help improve understanding of these complications through estimation of joint and bone mechanics. Ho ...

PPAR delta Promotes Running Endurance by Preserving Glucose

Johan Auwerx, Hao Li, Vincenzo Sorrentino

Management of energy stores is critical during endurance exercise; a shift in substrate utilization from glucose toward fat is a hallmark of trained muscle. Here we show that this key metabolic adaptation is both dependent on muscle PPAR delta and stimulat ...

A patient-specific model of total knee arthroplasty to estimate patellar strain: A case study

Kamiar Aminian, Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Brigitte Jolles-Haeberli, Arash Arami, Adeliya Latypova

Inappropriate patellar cut during total knee arthroplasty can lead to patellar complications due to increased bone strain. In this study, we evaluated patellar bone strain of a patient who had a deeper patellar cut than the recommended. A patient-specific ...

In vivo mechanical loading combined with cell therapy in a bone tissue engineering scaffold

Tanja Cloé Hausherr

Bone defects generate a worldwide high demand for bone repair and reconstruction. The incidence of bone defect repair in our aging society is expected to increase in the next decades. As bone auto- and allografting solutions often suffer from limited suppl ...

Time course of bone screw fixation following a local delivery of zoledronate in a rat femoral model – a micro-finite element analysis

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Ulrike Kettenberger, Adeliya Latypova

A good fixation of osteosynthesis implants is crucial for a successful bone healing but often difficult to achieve in osteoporotic patients. One possible solution to this issue is the local delivery of bisphosphonates in direct proximity to the implants, A ...

A patient-specific numerical musculoskeletal knee model

Adeliya Latypova

Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) is a well-accepted surgical treatment of severe cases of osteoarthritis. Surgery is associated with improved pain level, knee function and health-related quality of life. Despite advances in surgical techniques and implant des ...
