Despite the advances in total ankle replacement (TAR), TAR has emerged as a promising alternative to ankle arthrodesis, particularly in severe ankle arthritis. Restoring ankle stability and alignment is the most important technical consideration and the goal of TAR. Hence, additional procedures, such as soft tissue balancing and osteotomies, are often critical parts of surgical planning. This article reviews the basics of joint balancing, offering suggestions on procedure selection for ligamentous balancing and varus and valgus malalignment in TARs.

Background: Individuals with Down syndrome present with several impairments such as hypotonia, ligament laxity, decreased muscle strength, insufficient muscular cocontraction, inadequate postural control, and disturbed proprioception. These factors are responsible for the developmental challenges faced by children with Down syndrome. These individuals also present with balance dysfunctions. Purpose: This systematic review aims to describe the motor dysfunction and balance impairments in children and adolescents with Down syndrome. Methods: We searched the Scopus, ScienceDirect, MEDLINE, Wiley, and EBSCO databases for observational studies evaluating the motor abilities and balance performance in individuals with Down syndrome. The review was registered on PROSPERO. Results: A total of 1,096 articles were retrieved; after careful screening and scrutinizing against the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 10 articles were included in the review. Overall, the children and adolescents with Down syndrome showed delays and dysfunction in performing various activities such as sitting, pulling to stand, standing, and walking. They also presented with compensatory mechanisms to maintain their equilibrium in static and dynamic activities. Conclusion: The motor development of children with Down syndrome is significantly delayed due to structural differences in the brain. These individuals have inefficient compensatory strategies like increasing step width, increasing frequency of mediolateral center of pressure displacement, decreasing anteroposterior displacement, increasing trunk stiffness, and increasing posterior trunk displacement to maintain equilibrium. Down syndrome presents with interindividual variations; therefore, a thorough evaluation is required before a structured intervention is developed to improve motor and balance dysfunction.

교정력이 치아에 가해지면 치주인대의 재생과 치조골의 개조가 일어난다. 치주인대 섬유아세포는 collagenase와 TIMP-1을 분비하여 치주조직의 교원질의 분해와 합성을 담당한다. 본 연구에서는 치주인대 섬유아세포예 기계적 자극과 interleukin-$1{\beta}$를 가해 collagenase와 TIMP-1의 발현을 RT-PCR과 면역조직화학 염색을 사용하여 알아보았다. 4명의 10대 남자 교정환자에게서 아무런 병소가 없는 제1소구치를 발치후 치주인대 섬유아세포를 배양하여 4-6세대의 세포를 사용하였다. 대조군, $Petriperm dish^{\circledR}$ 바닥의 표면적을 $5\%$ 증가시킨 기계적 자극을 가한 군, interleukin-$1{\beta}$를 1.0 ng/ml를 가한 군과 기계적 자극과 interleukin-$1{\beta}$를 같이 가한 군으로 나누어 4명의 환자에서 얻은 세포군을 각 군별로 2, 4, 8시간 후 RT-PCR을 시행하여 그 산물을 반정량하여 대조군에 대한 각 실험군의 상대적인 증감을 나타내었고, 24시간후 면역조직화학 염색을 시행하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 광학 현미경으로 세포의 형태를 관찰한 결과 대조군에서는 전형적인 별모양과 길쭉한 모양을 함께 보였으나 기계적 자극과 interleukin-$1{\beta}$를 각각 혹은 동시에 준 군들에서는 별모양의 세포가 사라지고 모양이 더욱 길어졌다. 2. collagenase는 대조군에 비해 기계적 자극과 interleukin-$1{\beta}$를 각각 혹은 동시에 준 군들에서 증가하였고, 실험 8시간 후에서는 interleukin-$1{\beta}$를 준 군, 기계적 자극과 interleukin-$1{\beta}$를 동시에 준 군에서 뚜렷한 증가를 보였다. 3. TIMP-1은 세포 자극 2, 4시간 후에는 대조군에 비해 기계적 자극과 interleukin-$1{\beta}$를 각각 혹은 동시에 준 군들에서 감소하였지만, 실험 8시간 후에서는 증가를 보였다. 4. 면역조직화학 염색을 통해 collagenase와 TIMP-1이 대조군에 비해 기계적 자극과 interleukin-$1{\beta}$를 각각 혹은 동시에 준 군들에서 더욱 강한 염색상을 나타내었다. 본 실험의 결과 섬유아세포는 외부 자극이 가해지면 collagenase와 TIMP-1의 발현 조절을 통해 치주인대 재생과 치조골의 개조에 영향을 미쳐 항상성을 유지하려고 함을 알 수 있었다.

The posterior and multidirectional instability of the shoulder is a complex problem in terms of diagnosis and treatment. Increased joint volume by redundant capsular ligament has been regarded as a major pathogenesis of the posterior and multidirectional instability. Distinct from multidirectional hyperlaxity, multidirectional instability has symptoms related with increased translations in more than one direction. Recent report that shoulder symptom originates from labral lesion which was created by excessive rim-loading of the humeral head on the posteroinferior glenoid labrum during repetitive subluxation helps us to understand the pathogenesis of such instability. Painful jerk and Kim tests indicate labral lesion in the multidirectionally loose shoulder, suggesting multidirectional instability. Also, painful jerk test is a prognostic sign of failure of nonoperative treatment. The labral lesion can be an incomplete tear or a concealed lesion which often has been underestimated. Operative treatment is indicated when nonoperative treatment has failed. Arthroscopic capsulolabroplasty is a reliable procedure, which not only provides capsular balance, but also restores the labral height.

This study aimed to analyze the effects of external load between male and female on angular velocity, moment, and absorbed energy of the lower-extremity joints during drop landing. The study subjects were 9 male($mass=70.82{\pm}4.64kg$, $height=1.71{\pm}0.04m$, $age=24.5{\pm}1.84years$), 9 female($mass=50.14{\pm}4.09kg$, $height=1.61{\pm}0.03m$, $age=23.6{\pm}2.62years$), without any serious musculoskeletal, coordination, balance, or joint/ligament problems for 1 year before the study. The angular velocity, flexion/extension and abduction/adduction moments, and absorbed energy of the lower-extremity joints were compared between the men and women during drop landing under 4 different conditions of external load(0%, 8%, 16%, and 24%) by using two-way repeated ANOVA(p < .05). The women landed with a greater peak angular velocity of the ankle joint, greater peak inversion moment, and lower peak hip-extension moment than the men did, under all 4 conditions. Additionally, the landing characteristics of the women were distinct from those of the men; the women showed a greater peak knee-adduction moment and greater absorbed energy of the knee joint. These differences indicate that anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) strain was greater in the women than in the men and therefore, women may be at a higher potential risk for noncontact injuries of the ACL with an increase in external load.

The purpose of this study was to analysis the effect of form and hardness of outsoles on the motion of the lower extremity joints and on foot pressure during gait. The subjects were 15 women(mean age, $48.5{\pm}2.4$ years), who had no serious musculoskeletal, coordination, balance or joint/ligament problems within 1 year prior to the study. The pelvic tilt, joint angles at the lower extremities and the vertical ground reaction force(GRF) were compared during gait with 3 types of shoes (A, B, C) by using one-way repeated ANOVA(p<.05). During gait, the peak tilt angle and the range of motion(ROM) of the ankle and knee joints were found to be significantly different among the 3 types of shoes. The type C shoes showed a significantly lower mean second maximum vertical GRF than types A and B. The curved outsoles of type C shoes, which had a form and hardness different from those of A and B, was designed strategically for walking shoes to provide stability to the Additionally, type C induced the dispersion of eccentric pressure and made the center of pressure roll over to the center line of the foot.
