We were highly interested in the article entitled 'Clinical evaluation of the first semi-active total knee arthroplasty assisting robot made in China: a retrospective propensity score-matched cohort study' by Yang et al. The authors aim to conduct th...
The use of robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is becoming increasingly popular due to better precision, potentially superior outcomes and the ability to achieve alternative alignment strategies. The most commonly used ali...
Real world settings are seldomly just composed of level surfaces and stairs are frequently encountered in daily life. Unfortunately, ~ 90% of the elderly population use some sort of compensation pattern in order to negotiate stairs. Because the biome...
BACKGROUND: The term digitalization is in trend. In addition to modernizing existing structures and converting analogue to digital processes, there are now a large number of digital applications available in the medical field. This is also increasing...
INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to investigate the ankle alignment alterations after the correction of knee varus deformity in MAKO robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (MA-TKA).

Human kinetics, specifically joint moments and ground reaction forces (GRFs) can provide important clinical information and can be used to control assistive devices. Traditionally, collection of kinetics is mostly limited to the lab environment becau...
Image quality control (QC) is crucial for the accurate diagnosis of knee diseases using radiographs. However, the manual QC process is subjective, labor intensive, and time-consuming. In this study, we aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)...
BACKGROUND: Knee alignment affects the development and surgical treatment of knee osteoarthritis. Automating femorotibial angle (FTA) and hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA) measurement from radiographs could improve reliability and save time. Further, if HKA...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (r-TKA) can reportedly achieve more accurate implant positioning than conventional total knee arthroplasty (c-TKA), although its learning curve is controversial. Moreover, few studies have investigat...
