Evaluation of the effects of the Arm Light Exoskeleton on movement execution and muscle activities: a pilot study on healthy subjects

Silvestro Micera, Elvira Pirondini, Martina Coscia

Background: Exoskeletons for lower and upper extremities have been introduced in neurorehabilitation because they can guide the patient's limb following its anatomy, covering many degrees of freedom and most of its natural workspace, and allowing the contr ...

Strategies for improving the repair of focal cartilage defects

Dominique Pioletti, Philippe Abdel Sayed

Articular cartilage, together with skin, was predicted to be one of the first tissues to be successfully engineered. However cartilage repair remains nowadays still elusive, as we are still not able to overcome the hurdles of creating biomaterials correspo ...

Impact of synovial fluid flow on temperature regulation in knee cartilage

Dominique Pioletti, Philippe Abdel Sayed, Valérie Hélène Emilie Malfroy Camine, Mohamadreza Nassajian Moghadam

Several studies have reported an increase of temperature in cartilage submitted to cyclic sinusoidal loading. The temperature increase is in part due to the viscous behavior of this tissue, which partially dissipates the input mechanical energy into heat. ...

Self-heating hydrogel for mechanically-controlled drug release

Mohamadreza Nassajian Moghadam

Due to our active lifestyle, knee cartilage is at risk for focal defects. Unfortunately, the native healing properties of the articular cartilage are very limited. New strategies to treat cartilage defects are then developed such as the local delivery of g ...

Effect of Patient Specific Parameters on Degenerative Shoulder Diseases

Christoph Anselm Engelhardt

Osteoarthritis and rotator cuff tears are two common and wide spread shoulder diseases leading to significant restrictions in the daily life of the affected. The pathogenesis is not fully understood yet. A chronic process triggered by multiple causes is as ...

Cartilage self-heating contributes to chondrogenic expression

Dominique Pioletti, Philippe Abdel Sayed, Arne Christian Vogel, Mohamadreza Nassajian Moghadam

Articular cartilage is a soft tissue showing inelastic properties. Under cyclic loading, inelastic materials may dissipate mechanical energy into heat. In knee cartilage, due to an intrinsic reduced heat convection related to its avascularity, a local temp ...

Dissipation as variable in cartilage mechanobiology

Philippe Abdel Sayed

Mechanobiology is the analysis of the role of mechanical forces in educing a molecular response in cells. Nowadays, mechanobiology may contribute to clinical progress. In particular, mechanical stimulation has been proposed to induce chondrogenesis in engi ...
