Early short-term postoperative mechanical failures of current ceramic-on-ceramic bearing total hip arthroplasties
(MDPI, 2020)
Although ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearings have been shown to produce the smallest amount of wear volume in vitro as well as in vivo studies when used for total hip arthroplasties (THA), concerns about ...
Correlation between neck muscle endurance tests, ultrasonography, and self-reported outcomes in women with low cervical disability and neck pain
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: Neck pain (NP) is a frequent condition in women, characterized by exhibiting distinct clinical manifestations such as the presence of deep neck (DN) muscle weakness. Endurance and ultrasonography ...
Injuries of the subscapularis: prevalence of partial lesions and their diagnostic difficulty

The supporting role of the teres major muscle, an additional component in glenohumeral stability? An anatomical and radiological study
(Elsevier, 2020-08)
Muscle coordination plays an important role in glenohumeral stability. The rotator cuff and the long head of the biceps are considered the primary dynamic stabilizers muscles. However, the fact that a ...
Efects of occipital‑atlas stabilization in the upper cervical spine kinematics: an in vitro study
(Springer Nature, 2021)
This study compares upper cervical spine range of motion (ROM) in the three cardinal planes before and after occiput-atlas (C0–C1) stabilization. After the dissection of the superficial structures to ...
Assessing inter-limb asymmetries in soccer players: magnitude, direction and association with performance
(Sciendo, 2021)
In this study, we aimed to analyze the magnitude and direction of inter-limb asymmetries in ankle dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM), power (using iso-inertial devices), and a neuromuscular skill (change ...
