The femoroacetabular contact force and pressure are increased in the anterosuperior segment of the acetabulum in femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. We developed a special device for femoroacetabular contact force measurement in hip arthroscopy and present the surgical technique for measuring femoroacetabular contact force in the intact joint with a cam morphology and after cam resection, with the hip in different positions in a cadaver specimen. The device is introduced into the joint peripheral compartment. After joint distraction, the sensor is deployed through the cannula and advanced into the central compartment under direct arthroscopic control. We show a decrease in the contact force measured with this device after cam resection. This force analysis is limited to the anterosuperior femoroacetabular junction, which is the most frequent location for labral and chondral pathology in cam-type femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. We believe that this device also can be used in the evaluation of the contact forces in other joint conditions and in the assessment of diverse techniques of labral repair or reconstruction.

Background: Few studies have assessed vertical ground reaction force, contact time, contact area, and center of pressure during gait in the early phase post-total hip arthroplasty. This study aimed to investigate whether these parameters are more pronounced in participants post-total hip arthroplasty compared to healthy controls.
Methods: We included 22 female participants who underwent total hip arthroplasty (age, 68.

Objectives: To evaluate various oral functions in patients with jaw defects after oral tumour surgery and to clarify factors associated with their quality of life (QoL).
Background: In patients with jaw defects, oral function and QoL are severely impaired. No studies have evaluated oral functions of patients with jaw defects and examined their relationships with QoL.
Mechanically Robust, Superlubricating and Antifouling Bilayer Nanocoating for Micro-Bioimplants via a Dual-Function Metal Coordination Approach.

Nanometer-thick ultrathin coatings with superior mechanical strength and desirable lubricating and antifouling performance are critical for the miniaturization of implantable medical devices. However, integrating these properties at the nanoscale remains challenging due to the inherent trade-off between mechanical strength and hydration as well as limitations in coating thickness. In this work, we address these challenges by employing dual-function metal coordination to construct a ∼25 nm thick bilayer structure.

Ground reaction forces (GRFs) are known to be high during front foot contact of fast bowling deliveries in cricket. There is a lack of published data on the GRFs during follow through foot contacts. The aim of this study was to quantify and compare peak GRFs and impulse of the delivery stride and the follow through of fast bowling deliveries.

In recent years, the demand for orthopedic implants has surged due to increased life expectancy, necessitating the need for materials that better mimic the biomechanical properties of human bone. Traditional metal implants, despite their mechanical superiority and biocompatibility, often face challenges such as mismatched elastic modulus and ion release, leading to complications and implant failures. Polyetheretherketone (PEEK), a semi-crystalline polymer with an aromatic backbone, presents a promising alternative due to its adjustable elastic modulus and compatibility with bone tissue.
