Abstract:: Previous investigations have failed to show benefits of low level laser therapy (LLLT) for tendon healing in horses, contrary to reports in other species. We hypothesized that delivery of LLLT at manufacturer-recommended energy fluence through equine cadaver skin to equine tendon-derived fibroblasts in vitro would increase cell proliferation, metabolic activity...

Abstract:: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating disease which poses health problems in human and veterinary medicine. SCI causes neurological disability, with loss of motor, sensory and autonomic function. This study investigated the efficacy of local treatment with IKVAV-peptide on spinal cord regeneration following compression injury at T12 vertebra in...

Abstract:: PURPOSE: To compare glenohumeral joint position sense (JPS), concentric internal (IR) and external rotation (ER) strength, functional ability, and level of satisfaction in patients who underwent three types of glenohumeral capsulorrhaphy with age-matched controls. RESEARCH DESIGN: Four 4x2 and two 4x3 ANOVAs were used to identify differences in JPS and...

Creator:: Manzour, Waleed F.
Abstract:: Isolated injury of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is less frequent and typically perceived as less severe than ACL injuries with concurrent damage to other knee stabilizing structures. The timing of the ACL reconstructive surgery is thought to be a critical factor that affects the patient's postoperative outcome. No previous...

Abstract:: Pedicle screw breakage and loosening remain as clinical complications of short segment instrumentation procedures for spinal stabilization. This study has directly visualized and measured elastic, plastic and total vertebral pedicle trabecular bone full-field strains in the regions immediately surrounding the pedicle screw during pedicle screw insertion by utilizing functional microCT...
