Comparing Wear of the Osteoarthritic Temporomandibular Joint and Distal Interphalangeal Joint: A Cadaveric Study
… affecting multiple joints in an individual. This study aimed to determine whether OA severity and spatial wear patterns are concordant across joints with distinct biomechanics and ossification processes by comparing the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and the distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ). …

Preoperative Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy Planning Using the Conventional and Common Tangent Methods: A Cadaveric Study
… angle following rotation of the tibial plateau. Study Design – Cadaveric study. Seven paired canine pelvic limbs. Methods- Radiographs of the stifle were taken at 135° of extension prior to and following rotation of the tibial plateau under load (0N and 30N). The tibial plateau of each limb was …

Stability of long multiple-rod constructs and dual-rod constructs in the thoracic spine: a biomechanical cadaveric study
… to a four-rod (multiple-rod) construct (MRC) in cadaveric thoracic spines. Nine intact human cadaveric thoracic spines (T1-T12) were instrumented with either a DRC or MRC, and biomechanical testing was then carried out to compare range of motion (ROM) and stiffness between these two constructs. …

Influence of Externally Applied Moments and Loads on Knee Kinematics: A Cadaveric Study of Single- and Multi-Axis Loading of the Knee
… after ACL injury. The aims of the current study were to evaluate cadaveric knee kinematics to better understand ACL injury modalities.In this study, a total of 18 cadaveric knee specimens (age 44 +/- 8 years, 10 female and 8 male, 10 right and 8 left limbs) were tested under 65 loading …

The Bio-Mechanical Development and Kinematic Evaluation of Zone I and Zone II Injuries and their Corresponding Surgical Repair Techniques using an In-Vitro Active Finger Motion Simulator: A Cadaveric Study
Research development involving large scale joint mechanics and biomechanical adaptations is growing. However, interest in smaller scale joints, such as the fingers, is limited. Thus, the present work describes the enhancement and clinical application of a previously designed in-vitro active finger …

Knee Balance Assessment During Cementation Is Detrimental to Initial TKA Tibial Tray Fixation
… mechanism of aseptic loosening and to perform a cadaveric study on modern commercially available TKA systems to evaluate their ability to mitigate the risks of poor fixation. The results from this study indicate that tibial components with no cement mantle around the cone or keel structure …

Musculoskeletal Modeling of The Human Elbow Joint
… models of the elbow have been developed to study joint behavior, but all of these models have limited applicability because the joint structure was modeled as an idealized joint (e.g. hinge joint) rather than a true anatomical joint. Three dimensional studies of elbow passive motion showed …

Effect of 9 mm Tibial Tuberosity Advancement on Cranial Tibial Translation in the Canine Cranial Cruciate Ligament Deficient Stifle
… ligament (CCL) deficient canine stifles. Study Design-In vitro cadaveric study. Animals-Twelve canine pelvic limbs. Methods-Each stifle was placed in a jig at 135° with a simulated quadriceps force and tibial axial force, and the distance of CTT was measured with the CCL intact (iCCL), …

An investigation of the biomechanical response from shock wave loading to the head
… followed a scheme that was also applied to the cadaveric study conducted concurrently. This scheme was designed to allow comparison of the cadaveric data and the sphere data, as a means to help identify the primary components of the biomechanical response of the skull/brain system. </p> <p>The …

A cadaveric and magnetic resonance imaging study of the anatomical variations of levator scapulae
… scapulae muscle is to elevate the scapula. This study aimed to determine the morphometric variation in levator scapulae muscle and its related neurovasculature via cadaveric and MRI studies. There were 20 available cadavers, and their posterior and anterior neck triangles were dissected to expose …

Robotic Simulation of Disc Arthroplasty Surgery: Influence of Surgical Placement on Motion Segment Dynamics
… the fixed center of rotation (COR). A previous study demonstrated that intact motion segment unit (MSU) mechanics and range of motion (ROM) were sensitive to the location of a prescribed sagittal plane rotational axis. Mal-alignment between the implant COR and the COR of the MSU may lead to an …
