The electrophysiological experiments were carried out on five male macaques rhesus under nembutal anesthesia. Kinesthetic evoked potentials in response to arm rotation in the elbow joint were registered in the contralateral primary somatosensory cortex. The data obtained show a significant increase in the duration of kinesthetic potential first positive component with 10 degrees-40 degrees arm rotation amplitude, as compared to 2 degrees rotation. On the contrary, the latent period and amplitude of the component in this stimulation range (2 degrees-40 degrees) were similar. It is suggested that the increase in the arm rotation angle is selectively reflected in the temporary parameters of kinesthetic potential first positive component.

Anterior Shoulder Instability (ASI) is a common orthopedic condition often resulting in altered shoulder kinematics. Understanding the biomechanics of the unstable shoulder is critical to determine the most appropriate treatment. This study aims to conduct the first systematic review and meta-analysis of three-dimensional (3D) shoulder kinematic studies in ASI patients.

Background: Hallux valgus (HV) is a complex, multiplanar deformity. In this study, we examined the interrelationships between various components of this deformity using weightbearing computed tomography (WBCT). We hypothesized that the severity of traditional axial plane deformities would correlate with malpositioning of the metatarsosesamoid complex, first-ray coronal rotational deformity, and malalignment of the hindfoot and midfoot.

Background: Recombinant growth hormone (rhGH) has been used since 1985 to treat growth hormone (GH)-induced short stature, typically associated with transient adverse events. However, lipoatrophy, characterized by irreversible damage to subcutaneous fat, was first reported in 1999 and linked to antibody formation. In 2021, localized lipoatrophy was observed in 14.

The effects of the two popular strategies, scapular adduction and depression and scapular posterior tilt, on muscle activity of the trapezius and serratus anterior muscles have not been compared. This study demonstrates the effects of additional scapular adduction and depression or scapular posterior tilt movements on the activation of trapezius and serratus anterior muscles and scapular kinematics during arm raising. Eighteen asymptomatic men performed arm raising tasks with and without additional scapular movements, including scapular adduction and depression or scapular posterior tilt.

Introduction: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in valgus knees is challenging. Optimal ligament balance, implant neutral or moderate valgus alignment are crucial but conventional instrumentations usually lead to outliers. Robotic arm assisted TKA (RATKA) advantages could answer this challenge.
