Mechanical loading to the knee joint results in a differential response based on the local
capacity of the tissues (ligament, tendon, meniscus, cartilage, and bone) and how those …

REHABILITATION FOLLOWING ISOLATED POSTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT
RECONSTRUCTION: A LITERATURE REVIEW OF PUBLISHED PROTOCOLS - PMC Back …

This paper proposes a two translational and two rotational (2T2R) four-degrees-of-freedom
(DOF) parallel kinematic mechanism (PKM) designed as a knee rehabilitation and diagnosis …

Abstract Background Individuals with Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury often show
altered movement patterns, suggested to be partly due to impaired sensorimotor control …

Background: There is little in vivo data that describe the relationships between patellar
tendon orientation, patellar tendon strain, and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) strain during …

Injuries to the knee involving multiple ligaments occur in a variety of circumstances and
require careful assessment and planning. A wide constellation of injuries can occur with …

The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is the largest intra-articular ligament in the knee and is
the primary stabilizer to posterior tibial translation. Historically, the PCL's functional …

Although parallel manipulators started with the introduction of architectures with six degrees
of freedom, a vast number of applications require less than six degrees of freedom …

Purpose It has been reported that there is no correlation between anterior tibia translation
(ATT) in passive and dynamic situations. Passive ATT (ATTp) may be different to dynamic …

The internal brace (IB) technique is a promising treatment option for repairing the proximal
rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). This paper presents a biomechanical …
