Table 1 summarizes the contracture force detected in the different transgenic lines.

Ostensibly, at a given knee joint angle near full extension, a flexion contracture may limit force production because the knee extensors – the monoarticular vastii in particular – are operating at a disadvantaged (lower) position on the ascending limb of their force-angle curves [ 14, 15].
The results of the IVCT: maximal force of contracture at halothane 2%, caffeine 2mmol/L, halothane 3%.
The force of contracture of the IVCT was significantly higher in the group with MH (Table 1).
Highly aligned collagen fibers would theoretically be associated with a greater force of contracture when myofibroblasts are stimulated to contract along uninterrupted parallel fibers [ 5].
On the other hand, the presence of a MH mutation in gene RYR1 modifies the muscular phenotype since the force of contracture in the IVCT is significantly more important in this group.
In humans, knee joint contractures required more quadriceps force for stability, caused a shorter stride length, increased oxygen consumption and negatively impacted balance and risk of falling [ 26– 28].
The reduced muscle extensibility due to muscle contracture might cause "any pulling force to be transmitted more readily to the spindles," thus increasing spasticity [ 18].
The aims of this study are to look for any correlation between the presence of a MH mutation and 1) the severity of the anesthetic complication and 2) the force of the contractures observed in the IVCT.
The foreign body response to an implanted device is initiated by an inflammatory reaction followed by recruitment of fibroblasts, which lay down collagen fibers, and contractile myofibroblasts, which generate the force generally associated with contracture.
The 3-dimensional surface of textured implants is thought to disrupt contractile forces and reduce capsular contracture rates.
