Maximal voluntary isokinetic knee flexion torque is associated with femoral shaft bone strength indices in knee replacement patients.
2012
It is currently unknown whether knee replacement-associated bone loss is modified by rehabilitation programs. Thus, a sample of 45 (18 men and 25 women) persons with unilateral knee replacement were recruited; age 66 years (sd 6), height 169 cm (sd 8), body mass 83 kg (sd 15), time since operation 10 months (sd 4) to explore the associations between maximal torque/power in knee extension/flexion and femoral mid-shaft bone traits (Cortical cross-sectional area (CoA, mm(2)), cortical volumetric bone mineral density (CoD, mg/mm(3)) and bone bending strength index (SSI, mm(3))). Bone traits were calculated from a single computed tomography slice from the femoral mid-shaft. Pain in the operated …
Different Surgical Approaches to Treat Chronic Tophaceous Gout in the Hand: Our Experience
2010
Chronic tophaceous gout is a disabling erosive arthritis characterized by an elevated serum urate concentration, recurrent attacks of arthritis, and deposits of monosodium urate crystals in synovial fluids. Tophi, ulcerations of the overlying skin, and fissures of the interarticular cartilage may occur in advanced stages, combined with deformities of the joints and decreased active joint flexion and extension. Although the timely use of allopurinol is associated with a decrease in the frequency of deposits of the tophaceous substance, however, surgical management is necessary to restore and improve the cosmesis and joint function, to alleviate symptomatic discomfort, and to reduce the risk …
Biomechanical Diagnosis and Rehabilitation Control of Pes Equinus Patiens by Computerized Motion Analysis
1985
If a foot is fixed in plantar flexion such as to inhibit a dorsal flexion beyond a rectangular position with reference to the lower leg the resulting syndrome is called pes equinus. These patients exhibit a characteristic gait with stance phases on tiptoe that may amount to a severe handicap for them. The pes equinus is a most common deformity found in patients with a hemiplegic or diplegic disorder in the region of the foot and the lower leg with typical structural changes in the ankle joint and the calf muscles. The therapy of the pes equinus depends on its etiology and its severity. A less severe pes equinus deformity can be treated by physical therapy and other conservative measures. Mo…
Reliability of Y-Balance Test y Wight Bearing Lunge Test for the clinical-functional evolution of plantar fasciitis
2018
[Resumen] Objetivos: Los objetivos de nuestro estudio han sido determinar en pacientes con FP unilateral la fiabilidad intraobservador del instrumento Y- Balance Test (YBT) y la prueba Wight Bearing Lunge Test (WBLT) medida con el inclinómetro de un telefono movil inteligente. Métodos: Estudio transversal y observacional, realizado con 16 pacientes (9 mujeres y 7 hombres). Resultados: Los resultados obtenidos revelan una excelente fiabilidad relativa intraobservador. El YBT mostró un CCI de 0’946; mientras que las medidas con inclinómetro obtuvieron un CCI de 0’992. En el YBT se apreció una asociación de variables estadísticamente significativa en la dirección posteromedial (p=0’004) y en e…

Deformidad tipo Checkrein del Hállux y dedos menores del pie sin fractura previa asociada.
2020
espanolPresentamos una revision bibliografica y la descripcion de la tecnica quirurgica en la deformidad tipo Checkrein del hallux y dedos menores del pie. Esta deformidad dinamica provoca a los pacientes una dificultad significativa para caminar y les impide practicar cualquier deporte ya que en la fase de apoyo de la marcha los dedos del pie se ven forzados a una flexion plantar maxima y terminan atrapados debajo del pie. En los casos en que no se asocia a fractura osea la sospecha clinica causante de la lesion es un sindrome compartimental subclinico. El tratamiento descrito en este trabajo consiste en una plastia en Z y la aplicacion de una sutura pulvertaft en el flexor largo del hallu…
Quantification de l’ablation d’un bassin versant marno-calcaire alpin durant le Petit Age Glaciaire par l’étude d’un système lacustre (cas du lac du «…
2002
Measurements of present-day erosion may give heterogeneous results according to the methods used. This article proposes an approach to erosion during the Little Ice Age by the quantitative analysis of detritical materials trapped in a dammed lake. This infill is recognized through two drillings, and these specific observations are supplemented by a seismic reflexion survey which provided a reliable estimate of the geometry of the lake infill. The sedimentary production is calculated from three pieces of data: (1) the surface of the drainage area, (2) duration of the lake system activity and (3) the volume of trapped sediments. From the three determined variables, we propose a detritical product…
L'utilisation des reliefs naturels dans l'art gravé et sculpté pariétal du paléolithique supérieur français
2005
Pendant toute la durée du Paléolithique supérieur, en Espagne et en France principalement, les artistes ont réalisé des figurations en utilisant les reliefs naturels et la morphologie des parois de grottes ou d'abris-sous-roche. Ce phénomène artistique, qui a toujours préoccupé les préhistoriens, a suscité les interrogations et les interprétations les plus diverses de la fin du XIXe siècle jusqu'à présent : origine de l'art, préoccupations magico-religieuses, organisation spatiale et sanctuarisation de l'espace souterrain, structures pariétales, chamanisme, techno-cultures, etc. Pendant longtemps, ce que les formes rocheuses pouvaient avoir d'évocateur a été considéré comme la raison d'être…
Responsiveness to change and reliability of measurement of radiographic joint space width in osteoarthritis of the knee: a systematic review
2011
Import JabRef | WosArea Orthopedics; Rheumatology; International audience; Objective: The goal of this systematic review was to report the responsiveness to change and reliability of conventional radiographic joint space width (JSW) measurement. Method: We searched the PubMed and Embase databases using the following search criteria: [osteoarthritis (OA) (MeSH)] AND (knee) AND (X-ray OR radiography OR diagnostic imaging OR radiology OR disease progression) AND (joint space OR JSW or disease progression). We assessed responsiveness by calculating the standardized response mean (SRM). We assessed reliability using intra- and inter-reader intra-class correlation (ICC) and coefficient of variati…
