Sentence examples for articulation size from inspiring English sources

However, the effect of articulation size on XLPE wear rates is poorly understood.

In another retrieval study looking at 90 modular implants, corrosion damage of the trunnion varied with type of articulation and head size [ 57].

MM wear rate is also influenced by the size of the articulation and its clearance (i.e. the difference between the radius of the head and the shell): larger heads show lower wear rates provided they have a low clearance [ 3].

A medium-sized femoral component, size E tibial tray and a medium size 4 meniscal bearing provided a stable articulation.

MoM articulation also allowed larger head sizes in hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) and THA.

During the first 6 months, we observed a small difference favoring the large articulations, but the larger head size may not have been the cause.

As such, there is a need to investigate whether the problems associated with the articular surface replacement and large head size metal-on-metal articulation are isolated events.

Metal-on-metal (MoM) hip articulations allow the use of larger-diameter femoral head sizes than other constrained articulation types like metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) and ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) total hip arthroplasties (THAs), where a liner must be interpositioned between the femoral head and the metal shell.

Articulations with different head sizes (22, 28, or 32 mm) were used in the study population, but this parameter was not systematically registered until 1999, and was therefore not analyzed.
