An assessment of burden associated with problem joints in children and adults with moderate or severe haemophilia A: analysis of the CHESS-Paediatrics and CHESS II cross-sectional... by Paul McLaughlin, Hortensia De la Corte-Rodriguez, Tom Burke, Francis Nissen, Martynas Aizenas, Katya Moreno, Jamie O’Hara

“…Abstract Background Clinical research has offered many definitions and fragmented perspectives of joint morbidity in haemophilia. As joint damage, pain and mobility impairment can be present without clinical record of persistent bleeding, a person-centric joint morbidity characterisation remained a priority for the haemophilia community, giving rise to the ‘problem joint’ concept. …”

Microscale bone interlocking enhances osseointegration strength on the rough surface of 3D-printed titanium implants: experimental and finite element analysis by Tianyu Shu, Haoyu Shi, Meng Li, Yu-Chia Lin, Ang Li, Dandan Pei

“…Microscale finite element analysis revealed that the rough surface of the SLM implants dispersed harmful strains at the bone-implant interface into the surrounding bone, thereby mitigating the risk of damage to the bone-implant interface. Conclusions The rough surface of 3D-printed titanium implants fosters microscale bone interlocking and alleviates peri-implant bone strain concentration, which is a promising biomechanical basis for osseointegration strength.…”
