Abstract

Surgical reconstruction of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is recommended in acute injuries that result in severe tibial subluxation and instability. The surgical outcome level may be affected by the tibial fixation site. In response to a 110-N posterior tibial load, kinematics and in situ forces of anatomical soft-tissue graft fixation in single-bundle PCL reconstruction using an interference screw fixation are significantly closer to those in the intact knee than with extracortical fixation with two staples. Using a robotic/universal force moment sensor (UFS) testing system, we examined joint kinematics and in situ forces of porcine knees following single-bundle PCL reconstruction fixed at two different tibial fixation sites: anatomical interference screw and extracortical fixation. The site of the tibial graft fixation had significant effect on the resulting posterior displacement and in situ forces of the graft. Both PCL reconstruction techniques reduced the posterior tibial translation significantly. Proximal fixation techniques provided significantly less posterior tibial translation than extracortical fixation. Single-bundle PCL reconstruction with an interference screw showed higher in situ forces of the graft tha...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.
