Does the 2D Frontal Plane Projection Angle Predict Frontal Plane Knee Moments during Stepping, Landing, and Change of Direction Tasks? by Rachel K Straub, Christopher M Powers

“…# Background Although dynamic knee valgus can be visually identified using the 2D frontal plane projection angle (FPPA), the validity of the FPPA in terms of predicting frontal plane knee kinematics has been questioned. The biomechanical utility of the FPPA may lie in its ability to predict frontal plane knee moments…”

Current developments in robotic assistance technology for total knee arthroplasty: a comprehensive overview by Hongli Zhang, Xing-an Jiang, Bing-chen Jin, Hong-hao Zhang, Jun-bo Liang

“…The inevitable human factor in conventional total knee arthroplasty (TKA) frequently results in poor positioning of the prosthesis during the reconstruction of the lower limb's biomechanical axis. This can lead to severe postoperative pain, accelerated wear of the prosthesis, early loosening, and other problems in the affected knee, which has always been a primary concern for orthopaedic surgeons. …”

The reliability of talonavicular uncoverage to indicate forefoot abduction in progressive collapsing foot deformity: a finite element analysis by Yulin Wei, Hua Liu, Can Xu

“…While medializing displacement calcaneal osteotomy (MDCO) and lateral column lengthening (LCL) are commonly employed as corrective surgeries, their impact on foot structure and functionality necessitates detailed biomechanical analysis. The objective of this study is to analyze the reliability of using talonavicular uncoverage percentage (TUP) as a metric for assessing the degree of forefoot abduction. …”
