Excessive apoptosis in patellar tendinopathy in athletes.
BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of tendon overuse injuries is poorly understood. The histopathology underlying tendinopathy at various anatomical locations is similar and may reflect a common pathologic process. HYPOTHESIS Apoptosis contributes to the pathophysiology in patellar tendinopathy. STUDY DESIGN Case control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS We compared biopsy specimens from the ...
متن کاملBiomechanical Assessment of Patellar Advancement Procedures for Patella Alta.
Crouch gait deformity is common in children with cerebral palsy and often is associated with patella alta. Patellar tendon advancement typically is used to correct patella alta and restore normal knee mechanics. The purpose of this study was to determine the mechanical strength of surgical constructs used for fixation during patellar advancement procedures. This study used a cadaveric model to ...
متن کاملBiomechanical consequences of epiphytism in intertidal macroalgae.
Epiphytic algae grow on other algae rather than hard substrata, perhaps circumventing competition for space in marine ecosystems. Aquatic epiphytes are widely thought to negatively affect host fitness; it is also possible that epiphytes benefit from associating with hosts. This study explored the biomechanical costs and benefits of the epiphytic association between the intertidal brown algal ep...
متن کاملBiomechanical analysis of distalization of mandibular molars by placing a mini-plate: A finite element study
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to analyze the patterns of tooth movements when distalization of mandibular molars using a mini-plate took place. A finite element analysis was applied to analyze patterns of tooth movements. METHODS The model of the mandible and teeth were used to build a finite element analysis model, and a mini-plate was inserted in the mandibular ramus. Two differ...
متن کاملChanges of the Patellar Tendon Moment arm Length in Different Knee Angles: A Biomechanical in Vivo Study
Patellar tendon moment arm length (PTma) changes at different knee flexion angles have not been determined in invivo studies. We aimed to determine PTma in four different knee angles using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) topredict in vivo changes in the moment arm length from different knee angles during running.PTma was measured as the perpendicular distance from muscle–tend...
