Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease that causes pain and disability in the
adult population. OA is primarily caused by trauma induced by an external force or by age …

Osteoarthritis (OA), the most prevalent chronic joint disease, increases in prevalence with
age, and affects majority of individuals over the age of 65 and is a leading musculoskeletal …

Articular cartilage is a load‐bearing tissue playing a crucial mechanical role in diarthrodial
joints, facilitating joint articulation, and minimizing wear. The significance of biomechanical …

Objective To review the basic scientific status of repair in articular cartilage tissue and to
assess the efficiency of current clinical therapies instigated for the treatment of structural …

The in vivo pathomechanics of osteoarthritis (OA) at the knee is described in a framework
that is based on an analysis of studies describing assays of biomarkers, cartilage …

The histomorphogenesis of articular cartilage is regulated during skeletal development by
the intermittent forces and motions imposed at diarthrodial joints. A key feature in this …

The development, maintenance, and destruction of cartilage are regulated by mechanical
factors throughout life. Mechanical cues in the cartilage fetal endoskeleton influence the …

We examined the relationship between specific gait changes after anterior cruciate ligament
injury and the progression of osteoarthritis at the knee. The study was done using a finite …

Polymers provide a versatile platform for mimicking various aspects of physiological
extracellular matrix properties such as chemical composition, rigidity, and topography for …

OBJECTIVE: The objectives of this study were to (1) determine the correlation between
osteoarthritis (OA) and Indian hedgehog (Ihh) expression, and (2) establish the effects of Ihh …
