Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to investigate the relationships between the medial longitudinal arch (MLA) height of the foot and clinical and radiological characteristics of knee osteoarthritis in adult patients 50 aged and over. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is there any relationship between knee pain and disability in knee osteoarthritis and MLA height? - Is there any relationship between the radiologic severity of knee osteoarthritis and MLA height? - Is there any relationship between knee joint alignment in knee osteoarthritis and MLA height?
The comfort and fit of the residual limb within a prosthetic socket are of primary concern for many amputees. The residual limb is typically covered by nonbreathable and non-thermally conductive materials that can create a warm and ultimately moist environment. The investigators have developed a silicone liner approach to passively conduct heat from the skin using thermally conductive elastomers. A technology that can provide thermal control while retaining adequate suspension, weight, and other prosthetic characteristics would benefit many prosthesis wearers.
In the international literature there are only few publication about the normal biomechanical parameters of the lower limb examined prospectively in healthy population. The goal of our study to determine 15 anatomical and biomechanical parameters of the lower limb using 3D reconstruction based on upright, stereo radiographs in young, healthy volunteers.
