Inappropriate biomechanics, namely wear-and-tear, has been long believed to be a main
cause of osteoarthritis (OA). However, this view is now being re-evaluated, especially when …

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease that affects the synovial joints, especially the
knee joint, diminishing the ability of patients to perform daily physical activities …

Currently, there are no clinically available tools or applications which could predict
osteoarthritis development. Some computational models have been presented to simulate …

Purpose Varus alignment is known as one of the major causes of medial compartment
osteoarthritis (OA). Medial meniscus extrusion also plays a critical role in the in the …

Objectives To clarify the relationship between the baseline value of medial meniscus
extrusion (MME) and the radiographic change of knee osteoarthritis (KOA) through a 5-year …

Background Meniscectomy is likely to result in an increase of joint loading on articular
cartilage and initiates cartilage damages. However, the induced alterations in knee contact …

Detailed knowledge of the in vivo loading and kinematics in the knee joint is essential to
understand its normal functions and the aetiology of osteoarthritis. Computer models provide …

The menisci of the knee reduce tibiofemoral contact pressures and aid in knee lubrication
and nourishment. Meniscal injury occurs in half of knees sustaining anterior cruciate …
