Study Design. Measurement of the kinematics of the lumbar spine after insertion of an
interspinous spacer in vitro. Objectives. To understand the kinematics of the instrumented and …

Study Design. Measurement of intradiscal pressure was performed after placement of an
interspinous implant in a cadaver model. Objective. To understand the likelihood of accelerated …

Study Design. The spinal canal and neural foramina dimensions of cadaver lumbar spines
were quantified during flexion and extension using magnetic resonance imaging before and …

The Achilles tendon is one of the most frequently injured tendons in humans, and yet the
mechanisms underlying its injury are not well understood. This study examines the ex vivo …

Study Design. Facet loading parameters of lumbar cadaver spines were measured during
extension before and after placement of an interspinous process implant. Objective. The study …

This study examined the effects of intermittent hydrostatic pressure (IHP) and transforming
growth factor-β3 on chondrogenesis of adult human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) in vitro. …

This study demonstrated the chondrogenic effect of hydrostatic pressure on human bone
marrow stromal cells (MSCs) cultured in a mixed medium containing osteogenic and …

This investigation used capsaicin to selectively lesion unmyelinated sensory neurons in rats.
Neuronal lesioning induced a loss of trabecular integrity, reduced bone mass and strength, …

This study examined effects of varying magnitudes of intermittent hydrostatic pressure (IHP)
applied for different times on chondrogenesis of adult human mesenchymal stem cells (…

The structure and function of the proximal hip joint capsule and the zona orbicularis are poorly
understood. We hypothesized that the zona orbicularis is an important contributor to hip …
