Two 3D models of lumbar intervertebral discrespectively with a real human nucleus and with the nucleus removed were developed and validatedusing published experimental and clinical data. Then the models with a stainless steel nucleusprosthesis implanted and with polymer nucleus prostheses of various properties implanted were usedfor the 3D finite-element biomechanical analysis. All the above simulation and analysis were carriedout for the L4/L5 disc under a human worst--daily compression load of 2000 N. The results show thatthe polymer materials with Young's modulus of elasticity E = 0.1-100 MPa and Poisson's ratio v=0.35-0.5 are suitable to produce artificial nucleus prosthesis in view of biomechanicalconsideration.展开更多

The commonest etiology is intervention for localized prostate cancer and/or radical cystoprostatectomy for muscle invasive bladder cancer. Despite advances in surgical technology with robotic assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy and nerve sparing techniques, the rates of ED and SUI remain relatively unchanged. They both impact greatly on quality of life domains and have been associated with poor performance outcomes. Both the artificial urinary sphincter and penile prosthesis are gold standard treatments with proven efficacy, satisfaction and durability for end-stage SUI and ED respectively. Simultaneous prosthesis implantation for concurrent conditions has been well described, mostly in small retrospective series. The uptake of combination surgery has been slow due in part to technical demands of the surgery and to an extent, a heightened anxiety over potential complications. This paper aims to discuss the technical aspect of concurrent surgery for both disease entity and the current published outcomes of the various surgical techniques with this approach.展开更多

The finite element is a very effective method to predict and simulate the surgery effect. The purpose of this paper is to review the applications of finite element in artificial lumbar disc replacement, such as design of artificial lumbar disc prosthesis, risk and effect evaluation of artificial lumbar disc replacement, and assessment of operation methods. Lastly, we discuss the future development of finite element method applied in this field, including personalized design of the prosthesis, postoperative behavior guide, and artificial lumbar disc replacement combined with fusion surgery. In conclusion, as an invaluable complement to biomechanical experiments and clinical studies, the finite element method makes important contributions to our understanding of biomechanics of intervertebral disc, and plays an important role in the field of artificial lumbar disc replacement.展开更多

Several studies have been carried out highlighting the advantages of using muscle signal in order to control rehabilitation devices, such as experimental prostheses. This paper presents a study investigating the use of forearm surface electromyography (sEMG) signals for classification of several movements of the arm using just three pairs of surface electrodes located in strategic places. The classification is done by an artificial neural network to process signal features to recognize performed movements. The average accuracy reached for the classification of six different movements was 68% - 88%.展开更多
