Over the last two decades, there has been growing interest in assessing corneal biomechanics different diseases, such as keratoconus, glaucoma, and disorders. Given interaction structural continuity between cornea sclera, evaluating may give us further insights into pathogenesis, diagnosis, progression, management of glaucoma. Therefore, some authorities have recommended baseline evaluations al...

Background: The purpose of the present study was to investigate correlative and predictive relationship of lower extremity anatomical alignment, isometric hip abduction and external rotation strength with jump-landing biomechanics using Landing Error Scoring System (LESS). Methods: Anatomical alignment and isometric lower extremity muscle strength of 30 active...

Lumbar degenerative disease (LDD) refers to the normal strain of body involving lumbar bone, ligament, intervertebral disc, thereby protruding slippage, spinal stenosis and other lesions. fusion surgery has been proved be an effective strategy for treatment LDD. At present, a variety methods such as anterior posterior have reported. This article aims review discuss reported strategies LDD relat...

The patellofemoral joint is a common site of pain and failure following total knee arthroplasty. A contributory factor may be adverse patellofemoral biomechanics. Cadaveric investigations are commonly used to assess the biomechanics of the joint, but are associated with high inter-specimen variability and often cannot be carried out at physiological levels of loading. This study aimed to evalua...

costochondral and rib grafts have long been used for reconstruction of lost condyle. donor site morbidity has less been under investigation and researched. pleural disruption pneumothorax and ugly scars are among the donor site complications. this study aims to determine the rate of pleural disruption following costochondral graft harvesting from the 4th to the 7th ribs of right and left ribs f...

BACKGROUND As injury rates rise in the later stages of sporting activities, a better understanding of lower extremity biomechanics in the later phases of gamelike situations may improve training and injury prevention programs. HYPOTHESIS Lower extremity biomechanics of a drop-jump task (extracted from a principal components analysis) would reveal factors associated with risk of anterior cruci...
