Sentence examples for compartment load from inspiring English sources

Patients undergoing medial arthroscopic partial meniscectomy are at increased risk of developing and/or progressing knee osteoarthritis, with increased medial compartment load being a potential contributor.

A vicious cycle of malalignment then exists, whereby joint malalignment worsens the underlying excessive joint compartment forces (i.e. varus alignment increases the medial compartment load, and valgus alignment increases lateral compartment load in the knee during gait [ 8]) which contribute to OA progression in the respective compartments [ 4].

While it is believed that alleviation of knee pain occurs in response to the reduction in medial compartment load observed with laterally wedged insoles [ 23], results from clinical trials remain inconclusive about the benefits of insoles on symptoms [ 24].

5 Specifically, we have previously reported a significant reduction of 5.4% (SD 5.2%) in the knee adduction moment during walking (a measure of medial knee joint compartment load) with these particular lateral wedge insoles.

These results are reminiscent of LC3 conversion assays showing that differences in autophagic compartment load was mainly observed in NZB/W mice compared with controls under PMA/Ionomycin stimulations.

Tibio-femoral premature arthritis can occur from single compartment loading with patellofemoral arthritis in valgus knees.

Biomechanical studies have since evaluated the effects of laterally wedged insoles on knee alignment and medial compartment loading.

After a 5 min pulse of TRITC-dextran and a 1 min chase, conditions that are reported to label endosomes [30], the compartments loaded with the fluid-phase marker, and only these, were positive for AdcAGFP.

Conversely, valgus limb alignment shifts the center of pressure laterally and reduces the external adduction moment about the knee during gait, which increases lateral-compartment loading (e.g., lateral condyles).

The knee adduction moment is recognized as a surrogate measure of the medial tibio-femoral compartment joint load and therefore represents a valid intervention target.

This may be because traditional quadriceps strength training aims primarily to increase the quantity of muscle output, rather than targeting the biomechanical contributors to medial compartment knee load [ 50].
