Three-dimensional patellar motion at the natural knee during passive flexion/extension. An in vitro study.

30 Oct 2009 Patellar maltracking may result in many patellofemoral joint (PFJ) disorders in the natural and replaced knee. The literature providing quantitative reference for normal PFJ kinematics according to which patellar maltracking could be identified is ... Read more...

Effect of a free-range raising system on growth performance, carcass yield, and meat quality of slow-growing chicken.

29 Sep 2009 Experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of free-range raising systems on growth performance, carcass yield, and meat quality of slow-growing chickens. Slow-growing female chickens, Gushi chickens, were selected as the experimental birds. ... Read more...

Intensity, repetitiveness, and directionality of habitual adolescent mobility patterns influence the tibial diaphysis morphology of athletes.

30 Aug 2009 Mobility patterns affect the loads placed on the lower limbs during locomotion and may influence variation in lower limb diaphyseal robusticity and shape. This relationship commonly forms the basis for inferring mobility patterns from hominin fossil ... Read more...
