Journal ArticleDOI
Femoroacetabular impingement and the cam-effect A MRI-BASED QUANTITATIVE ANATOMICAL STUDY OF THE FEMORAL HEAD-NECK OFFSET
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the femoral neck and the offset of the head at various circumferential positions, using MRI data from volunteers with no osteoarthritic changes on standard radiographs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Are animal models useful for studying human disc disorders/degeneration?
Mauro Alini,Stephen M. Eisenstein,Keita Ito,Christopher B. Little,Annette Kettler,Koichi Masuda,James Melrose,James Robert Ralphs,Ian A. F. Stokes,Hans-Joachim Wilke +9 more
TL;DR: Although animal models are invaluable to increase the understanding of disc biology, care must be taken when used to study human disc degeneration and much more effort is needed to facilitate research on human disc material.
Journal ArticleDOI
An in vitro investigation of the acetabular labral seal in hip joint mechanics.
TL;DR: Hydstatic fluid pressurisation within the intra-articular space is greater with the labrum than without, which may enhance joint lubrication, and the trends observed in this experiment support the predictions of previous finite element analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silk fibroin as biomaterial for bone tissue engineering
TL;DR: This review discusses and summarizes recent advancements in processing SF, focusing on different fabrication and functionalization methods and their application to grow bone tissue in vitro and in vivo, which provides an impressive toolbox and allows silk fibroin scaffolds to be tailored to specific applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of the acetabular labrum on hip joint cartilage consolidation: a poroelastic finite element model.
TL;DR: The plane-strain finite element model demonstrated that the labrum adds an important resistance in the flow path of the fluid being expressed from the cartilage layers of the hip joint, enhancing joint stability and preserving joint congruity.
