Saddle shape of the mitral annulus reduces systolic strains on the P2 segment of the posterior mitral leaflet.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: The three-dimensional saddle shape of the mitral annulus is well characterized in animals and humans, but the impact of annular nonplanarity on valve function or mechanics is poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the impact ...

A comparison of mechanical properties of materials used in aortic arch reconstruction.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Differences in the mechanical properties of aortic tissues and replacement materials can have unwanted hemodynamic effects leading to graft failure. The aim of this experimental study was to compare the mechanical properties of different ...

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 ...

Medial knee joint loading increases in those who respond to hyaluronan injection for medial knee osteoarthritis.

30 Oct 2009 Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a cause of decline in function and the medial compartment is often affected. Intraarticular injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) is indicated as a symptom modifying treatment with at least 6 months passing between ...

Lower extremity walking mechanics of young individuals with asymptomatic varus knee alignment.

30 Oct 2009 Varus knee alignment is associated with an increased risk for developing medial knee osteoarthritis (OA). Medial knee OA is commonly associated with altered walking mechanics in the frontal and sagittal planes, as well as altered ground reaction ...

Quantifying the motion of Kager's fat pad.

30 Oct 2009 Kager's fat pad is located in Kager's triangle between the Achilles tendon, the superior cortex of the calcaneus, and flexor hallucis longus (FHL) muscle and tendon. Its biomechanical functions are not yet established, but recent studies suggest it ...

Biomechanical analysis of miniplate osteosynthesis for fractures of the atrophic mandible.

30 Oct 2009 PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the biomechanical behavior of miniplate osteosynthesis for fracture of the edentulous mandible with various degrees of atrophy by finite element (FE) analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: ...
