These data suggest that meniscus surface area strongly scales with (ipsilateral) tibial plateau area across both sexes, and that tibial coverage by the meniscus is similar between men and women.
The experiments were performed in a thin channel, the liquid was allowed to evaporate so that a meniscus between the suspension and the vapour was formed.
One needs to take into account that given subtle (albeit not statistically significant) size differences of the meniscus between men and women, the position of its internal margin and the percentage of tibial plateau coverage were very similar in both sexes.
To assess the impact of osteoarthritis (OA) on the meniscus by comparing transcripts and biological processes in the meniscus between patients with and without OA.
In this study, we conduct several experiments on the motion of an oil droplet near the meniscus between the wall and the horizontal water surface.
The presence of a discoid meniscus is suggested on MRI when three or more 5-mm-thick consecutive sagittal images demonstrate continuity of the meniscus between the anterior and posterior horns, producing an "extra bow tie" [14].
No statistically significant increase in ΔR1 was seen in the meniscus between 90 and 120 minutes or between 120 and 180 minutes.
The bHA was then added to the avidin layer by filling overnight the meniscus between the lenses with an aqueous solution of 49 μg/mL bHA.
Since men are obviously larger (and heavier) than women, a comparison of morphometric parameters of the meniscus between both sexes is not straight forward.
Although the exact tip-substrate transport mechanism remains unclear, there is some evidences that the ink transport from the tip is mediated by a water meniscus that forms between the tip and the surface under atmospheric conditions [45, 48 50].
