Changes 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...
متن کاملthe effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation
in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.
The patellar-tendon-bearing prosthesis.
Obviously there is no "ideal" leg substitute short of regenerating or transplanting another normal leg. The surgeon, the prosthetist, and the amputee alike have long accepted major deficiencies in leg prostheses as inescapable concomitants of aid in a situation demanding drastic compromise. Substitution of an artificial leg for a natural one involves not only manual skills and the principles of...
متن کاملIn vivo kinematics of the ACL during weight-bearing knee flexion.
No study has investigated the three-dimensional morphological changes of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) during functional activities in vivo. The purpose of this study was to analyze the elongation, rotation (twist), and orientation of the ACL during weight-bearing flexion in five human subjects using dual-orthogonal fluoroscopic images and MR image-based computer models. The ACL consiste...
متن کاملIn vivo kinematics of the knee during weight bearing high flexion.
Achieving high flexion is an objective of contemporary total knee arthoplasty; however little is known on the knee biomechanics at high flexion under weight-bearing conditions. This study investigates the 6DOF kinematics and tibiofemoral cartilage contact biomechanics of the knee during weight-bearing flexion from full extension to maximal flexion. Eight knees from seven healthy subjects with n...
