Non-invasive, non-radiological quantification of anteroposterior knee joint ligamentous laxity
OBJECTIVES We performed in vitro validation of a non-invasive skin-mounted system that could allow quantification of anteroposterior (AP) laxity in the outpatient setting. METHODS A total of 12 cadaveric lower limbs were tested with a commercial image-free navigation system using trackers secured by bone screws. We then tested a non-invasive fabric-strap system. The lower limb was secured at ...

NASH, an advanced form of NAFLD, occurs when the liver becomes inflamed and damaged secondary to fat buildup. The damage caused by NASH is similar to that caused by long-term, heavy alcohol consumption, yet occurs in people...
متن کاملRelationship between knee joint laxity and knee joint mechanics during the menstrual cycle.
BACKGROUND An increase in knee laxity during the menstrual cycle may increase the risk of anterior cruciate ligament injury. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether changing knee laxity during the menstrual cycle correlates with changing knee joint loads in a cutting manoeuvre. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Laboratory testing. PARTICIPANTS 25 healthy women, with a normal menstrual cycl...
