Finite element models of a human mandible were developed from QCT data, with the left TMJ being replaced by the implants. Six clenching tasks were simulated to evaluate stress and strain distributions in the mandible and implants. Ipsilateral clenching produced higher mandibular strains, while contralateral clenching generated larger implant stresses. Furthermore, intercuspal biting was found to have produced the highest strain (1750-1880 µε) and stress (∼17 MPa) in the mandible. Osseointegration reduced stresses (up to 0.14 MPa) and strains (up to 30 µε) in mandible as well as stresses in mandibular components (up to 48 MPa) and screws (up to 71 MPa). However, during non-osseointegrated conditions, stresses in cortical bone were higher for standard TMJ implant as compared to narrow implant. This suggests possible preference of narrow implant over standard ones.","PeriodicalId":20666,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"9544119251342019"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144151530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Motion capture was used to assess upper body stability based on the kinematic data of sways in all directions. People with PD had greater upper body sways than the control group in all directions when faced with unexpected perturbations. The application of expected perturbations to people with PD caused approximately 2.4 times greater upper body sways in the flexion direction (p < 0.001). Maximum sway velocity was significantly greater (p = 0.001) and time-to-fall was significantly shorter (p = 0.004) in people with PD than in the control cohort. People with PD had upper body instability, specifically in the forward direction. They were unable to adapt their neuromuscular responses after repeated trials.

The effects of different stenosis shapes and severities under continuous flow conditions on RBC damage and VWF degradation were examined. Blood samples were then analyzed for plasma-free hemoglobin concentration and VWF degradation. The results indicated that increased stenosis severity correlated with elevated hemolysis and a higher degradation rate of high molecular weight VWF (HMW-VWF). Rectangular stenosis induced more severe hemolysis and VWF degradation compared to elliptical stenosis at equivalent stenosis degrees. Both stenosis types demonstrated varying VWF degradation rates at low and medium/high stenosis levels, with elliptical stenosis showing particularly low VWF degradation at lower stenosis levels. The study highlights that different stenosis shapes and severities significantly affect blood damage under continuous flow. Greater stenosis severity resulted in increased blood flow velocity and wall shear stress (WSS), leading to enhanced hemolysis and VWF degradation, with rectangular stenosis showing more pronounced effects.","PeriodicalId":20666,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"9544119251341424"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144143399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are still some issues with mucosal marking and injection under gastrointestinal endoscopy. This paper aims to study a novel negative pressure electrocoagulation marking technique. Using a negative pressure pump in conjunction with a radiofrequency energy emission platform, we compared the effects of conventional electrocoagulation marking and negative pressure electrocoagulation marking using porcine stomachs as experimental subjects. The experimental system includes a negative pressure electrocoagulation platform and a radiofrequency energy emission platform. The experimental materials are fresh porcine stomachs. Electrocoagulation marking of porcine stomach under no negative pressure and negative pressure conditions. An infrared thermal imaging camera was used to measure the temperature. The experimental results showed that the highest average temperature in the no negative pressure group was 78.2 ± 7.6°C, while in the negative pressure group it was 78.1 ± 7.9°C, with no significant difference between the two (p = 0.8557). During subsequent injection tests, the average burst pressure in the no negative pressure group was 66.40 ± 16.96 mmHg, while in the negative pressure group it was 83.48 ± 28.56 mmHg. The negative pressure group had a significantly higher burst pressure (p = 0.0135), indicating that the negative pressure electrocoagulation marking technique can significantly enhance mucosal elevation. The results suggest that the negative pressure electrocoagulation marking technique has great potential for application in gastrointestinal endoscopic surgery. It can improve the safety of the surgery without increasing thermal injury, helping to reduce the incidence of intraoperative complications.","PeriodicalId":20666,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"9544119251338437"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144136336","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Decreased bone density heightens susceptibility to femoral neck fractures. The study investigated the impact of bone density on implant performance across three categories of bone quality: healthy, osteopenic, and osteoporotic. The effectiveness of three commonly used implant types (Femoral Neck System, Dynamic Condylar Screw, and Dynamic Hip Screw, where later two equipped with an anti-rotational screw) was evaluated through finite element analysis for treating Pauwels type III fracture. The bone geometry and material properties were based on a subject-specific CT data. The density and Young's modulus of bone elements were adjusted to simulate osteopenic and osteoporotic bone. FE models were developed and the peak loading values for normal walking and stair climbing conditions were considered. Stability and performance of the implant were assessed using bone strain, implant stress, deformation and rotation of the femoral head, micromotion at the interfaces, strain shielding, and risk of implant cut-out. Except for DCS with AR-screw and FNS implants under stair climbing conditions in weaker bone qualities, the implant stress remained within the yield limit of Ti-alloy. The comprehensive assessment identified DHS2 as the preferred implant option for treating such fractures, even in poor bone quality. The risk of cut-out risk was up to 3.9% higher in DCS2 and 6.3% higher in FNS implanted models than in DHS2. The effect of change in bone quality was comparatively less in DHS2 implants than the other two types.","PeriodicalId":20666,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"436-447"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144029172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fusion surgery is the gold standard for addressing DDDs, where implants such as cages, pedicle screws and rods are used for posterior stabilization. Various finite element (FE) studies have reported using corrugated cage surface textures; some others have used flat textures for virtual implantation. No comparative studies have been reported on the biomechanical effects of fusion surgery under implantation with cages of varying surface textures. The present biomechanical study compares the mechanical behaviour of an L4-L5 segment implanted with cages of different surface textures. The surgical techniques used for implantation are posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion. The virtual surgical models were developed from a previously validated intact lumbar spine FE model and simulated for physiological loading conditions. Compared to the flat cage implantation, a higher magnitude of stress was experienced by the cages and pedicle screw-rod systems under corrugated cage implantation. The maximum von Mises stress generated in the PLIF corrugated cage was 80.69% more than that observed in the flat cage. The maximum stresses in the corrugated cage were higher than those of the flat cage by 38.43%-80.69%, considering all the applied loading conditions. The findings of the study suggest that corrugated cage surface texture and suitable material selection may help in improving the long-term stability of cages.","PeriodicalId":20666,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"423-435"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144035481","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Waterjet as an emerging non-rigid cutting method is newly introduced into soft tissue dissection which shows a great potential in soft muscle cutting for low-trauma surgery. However, the cutting mechanisms of muscle material to waterjet impact remain unknown. This study reports the cutting responses of muscle tissue to waterjet impact. Waterjet morphology, depths of cut, cutting surface morphology and deformation of muscles were experimentally investigated using a computer-controlled waterjet machine. The mechanical properties of muscles were also measured to explore the property-processing relation. The conversion relationship between kinetic energy of waterjet and potential energy of muscle damage was established based on energy balance theory. Based on the experimental investigation and fracture mechanism analysis, the critical and the reasonable waterjet separation pressures for the muscles were respectively 0.8-1.1 MPa and 1.4-2.0 MPa for balancing separation efficiency and surrounding tissue protection. It was also found the muscle depth of cut under waterjet impact significantly increased with the impact pressure, but rapidly reduced with the increase in impact angle and transverse speed. In addition, a new phenomenon of swelling effect of the muscles was discovered in waterjet impact, which heavily affects the depths of cut. The proper stand-off distance was determined considering the muscle swelling effect and initial segment of waterjet. This research first provides practical insights into the process selection and quality control for waterjet cutting of soft muscles, advancing the clinical application of waterjet to muscle separation.","PeriodicalId":20666,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"485-497"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144035486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
