Robotic Versus Conventional Unicompartmental Knee Surgery: A Comprehensive Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Cureus
October 2023
Faculty of Medicine, Minia University, Minia, EGY.
Robotic-assisted surgery is a computer-controlled technique that may improve the accuracy and outcomes of unicompartmental total knee arthroplasty (TKA), a partial knee replacement surgery. The purpose of a meta-analysis about robotic-assisted versus conventional surgery for unicompartmental TKA is to compare the effectiveness of these two methods based on the current evidence. Our meta-analysis can help inform clinical decisions and guidelines for surgeons and patients who are considering unicompartmental TKA as a treatment option.

Objectives: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) combined with peroneal nerve stimulation (PNS) on muscle strength around the knee, proprioception, pain, functional status, and quality of life in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Patients And Methods: The prospective, randomized, single-blinded, controlled trial included 63 patients with clinical and radiological diagnoses of knee OA between December 2019 and March 2020. The patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 (NMES+PNS, n=31) and Group 2 (NMES, n=32).
The Nonintuitive Contributions of Individual Quadriceps Muscles to Patellar Tracking.

Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB,Canada.
The purpose of this study was to quantify the contribution of the individual quadriceps muscles to patellar tracking. The individual and/or combined quadriceps muscles were activated in rabbits (n = 6) during computer-controlled flexion/extension of the knee. Three-dimensional patellar tracking was measured for the vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and rectus femoris when activated alone and when activated simultaneously at different frequencies, producing a range of knee extensor torques.

Towards the goal of obtaining non-invasive biomarkers reflecting the anterior cruciate ligament's (ACL) loading capacity, this project aimed to develop a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based method facilitating the measurement of ACL elongations during the execution of knee stress tests. An MRI-compatible, computer-controlled, and pneumatically driven knee loading device was designed to perform Lachman-like tests and induce ACL strain. A human cadaveric leg was used for test purposes.

Falls contribute to injuries and reduced level of physical activity in older adults. During falls, the abrupt sensation of moving downward triggers a startle-like reaction that may interfere with protective response movements necessary to maintain balance. Startle reaction could be dampened by sensory pre-stimulation delivered immediately before a startling stimulus.
