Reduction of scapulohumeral subluxation with posterior augmented glenoid implants in anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty: Short-term 3D comparison between pre- and post-operative CT

Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Patrick Goetti

Background: Failure rates in anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) are higher in case of asymmetric glenoid bone loss secondary to posterior wear, and in persistent static posterior subluxation of the humeral head (PSH). Hypothesis: This study aimed ...

Non-setting, injectable biomaterials containing particulate hydroxyapatite can increase primary stability of bone screws in cancellous bone

Dominique Pioletti, Ulrike Kettenberger, Jorge Solana Munoz

BACKGROUND: Fracture fixation in weak bone is still a clinical challenge. Screw augmentation was shown to successfully increase their primary stability. The currently used calcium phosphate or polymeric bone cements, however, present important drawbacks su ...

Form - function relationships in dragonfly mandibles under an evolutionary perspective

Alessandra Patera

Functional requirements may constrain phenotypic diversification or foster it. For insect mouthparts, the quantification of the relationship between shape and function in an evolutionary framework remained largely unexplored. Here, the question of a functi ...

Visual tracking of non-rigid objects with partial occlusion through elastic structure of local patches and hierarchical diffusion

Kwang Moo Yi, Seungryong Kim

In this paper, a tracking method based on sequential Bayesian inference is proposed. The proposed method focuses on solving both the problem of tracking under partial occlusions and the problem of non-rigid object tracking in real-time on a desktop persona ...

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 ...

Riprap Protection of Vertical-Wall and Spill-Through Bridge Abutments

Anton Schleiss, António Heleno Cardoso

Scour around bridge abutments frequently leads to the collapse of bridge superstructures. Consequently, scour countermeasures are usually designed and installed by river engineers, riprap matting being the most widespread solution. The associated design cr ...

A numerical model of the ankle to analyze joint prostheses

Valérie Parvex

The ankle is one of the most injured joint in the body. However, it remains a new field of study in biomedical orthopedics. With the increased life span, more people suffer from arthosis and joint problems. That is why the improvements done in arthroplasty ...

Sport Players Detection and Tracking With a Mixed Network of Planar and Omnidirectional Cameras

Pierre Vandergheynst, Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Laurent Jacques

A generic approach is presented to detect and track people with a network of fixed and omnidirectional cameras given severely degraded foreground silhouettes. The problem is formulated as a sparsity constrained inverse problem. A dictionary made of atoms r ...

Repair of critical size defects in the rat cranium using ceramic-reinforced PLA scaffolds obtained by supercritical gas foaming

Dominique Pioletti, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate

Bioresorbable scaffolds made Of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA) obtained by supercritical gas foaming were recently described as suitable for tissue engineering, portraying biocompatibility with primary osteoblasts in vitro and interesting mechanical properties ...

Immediate implant placement using injectable calcium phosphate hydraulic cement in dogs

Jacques Lemaître, Pascale Van Landuyt

Techniques allowing implant placement in extraction sockets require either high diameter implants in surgically enlarged sockets or grafting and/or regenerative procedures around implants after their primary surgical stabilization. This study aimed to eval ...
