Force sense deficits in functionally unstable ankles.

30 Oct 2008 The purpose of this study was to determine whether participants with functional ankle instability have deficits in force sense reproduction compared to uninjured participants. Twenty participants with no history of injury and 20 with functional ... Read more...

Biomechanical in vitro evaluation of the effect of cyclic loading on the postoperative fixation stability and degradation of a biodegradable ankle plate.

30 Oct 2008 The effect of cyclic loading on the postoperative fixation stability of a biodegradable ankle plate was tested biomechanically during 12 weeks of hydrolytic degradation. Fracture of the lateral malleolus was simulated, and the parameters of cyclic ... Read more...
