Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of Salter pelvic osteotomy, Pemberton pelvic osteotomy, and triple pelvic osteotomy on the center of acetabulum and pelvic morphology in children with hip joint disease. METHODS The data of children treated with Salter pelvic osteotomy (2 males and 14 females with an average age of 2.49 years), Pemberton pelvic osteotomy (4 males and 11 females with an average age of 6.11 years), and triple pelvic osteotomy(4 males and 8 females with an average age of 9.59 years) between January 2011 and December 2020 were collected. After discharge, the outpatient review was followed up for at least 1 year. All patients underwent anterior-posterior pelvic X-ray scanning before surgery, three months after surgery in the first year and every six months after the first year. The following X-ray features were analyzed: bilateral pelvic height (PH), iliac crest inclination (ICI), a horizontal distance of the acetabulum center (HD), and vertical distance of the acetabulum center (VD). RESULTS The mean follow-up time was 16.9 ± 4.9 months in the Salter group, 20.7 ± 5.1 months in the Pemberton group, and 18.0 ± 5.4 months in the triple group (all P > 0.05). No significant differences between PH, HD, and VD of both sides on the preoperative AP pelvic x-ray were found. However, at the last follow-up, PH, HD,VD, and ICI increased in the Salter group (all P < 0.05), PH and VD increased in the Pemberton group (all P < 0.05), and VD decreased in the Triple group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Salter pelvic osteotomy may cause pelvic height to increase and the center of acetabulum to move outward and downward. In contrast, Pemberton pelvic osteotomy may cause pelvic height to increase and the center of acetabulum to move downward. Triple pelvic osteotomy only causes the center of acetabulum to move downward.

Characteristics of surface electromyogram signals after Pemberton pelvic osteotomy combined with femoral osteotomy in children with unilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip. Medicine (Baltimore) 2022; 101:e29794.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess the surface electromyogram (sEMG) signal characteristics of the muscle around the hip joint after Pemberton osteotomy in children with unilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). A total of 21 children with unilateral DDH who had received Pemberton osteotomy were selected as the DDH group, and 21 healthy children of the same age were selected as the control group. The children in both groups were tested using sEMG, the Root mean square (RMS) values of the tensor fascia lata, rectus femurs, and medial head of the hamstring and gluteus maximum on both sides in standing and walking status were recorded. The value on the affected side in the DDH group was compared with the value on the healthy side himself and the value in the control group. The mean postoperative follow-up in the DDH group was 27.76 ± 24.30 months. The RMS value of the affected gluteus maximum muscle in the DDH group was significantly larger while standing (P < 0.05), the RMS value of bilateral tensor fascia lata muscle was significantly larger while walking (P < 0.05), and the RMS value of the affected hamstring muscle medial head was significantly less in the DDH group compared with the control group (P < 0.05). An asymmetry and compensatory increase in the sEMG activity of the muscles around the hip joint when standing and walking was noted in children with unilateral DDH who underwent Pemberton osteotomy combined with a femoral osteotomy. The rehabilitation training of the muscles around the hip joint after unilateral DDH should be strengthened.

Integration of persuasive elements into exergames: Application in the development of a novel gait rehabilitation system for children with musculoskeletal conditions. J Biomed Inform 2022; 132:104130. [PMID: 35820597 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbi.2022.104130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2021] [Revised: 06/21/2022] [Accepted: 06/25/2022] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
The main contribution of this paper is the application of the Persuasive System Design (PSD) model for the analysis and development of exergame systems to stimulate pediatric patients to adhere to short-term gait rehabilitation. It resulted in a novel therapy consisting of a video gaming and virtual reality (VG/VR) biofeedback system for treadmill gait rehabilitation, including a method for progressing the rehabilitation settings. During gait rehabilitation (GR) sessions, therapy settings need to be adjusted by physiotherapists, based on their clinical experience, to address the deficiencies of individuals while maximizing their motor functioning and maintaining their motivation. The system integrates persuasive elements, adjusted when physiotherapists progress the therapeutic settings, such as the treadmill speed, auditory feedback, and game challenges. We followed a scenario-based design method to develop the system, which comprised an observational study of conventional GR sessions and evaluations with 6 and 9 rehabilitation specialists who provided feedback about the system design. They perceived that the proposed method was valuable for physiotherapists to adapt the rehabilitation based on the children's performance. Also, they remarked that the system's visual and auditory stimulus would help engage the children in the therapy.

Avascular Necrosis of the Hip Compromises Gait Balance Control in Female Juveniles With Unilateral Developmental Dysplasia Treated in Toddlerhood. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2022; 10:854818. [PMID: 35402403 PMCID: PMC8989420 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.854818] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2022] [Accepted: 03/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Avascular necrosis of the hip (AVN) is one of the most severe complications of surgical reduction when treating developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). The current study identified the differences in the balance control during walking in terms of the inclination angle (IA) of the center of pressure (COP) to the center of mass (COM), and the rate of change of IA (RCIA) between female juveniles with and without secondary AVN at the hip who were treated for unilateral DDH during toddlerhood as compared to their healthy peers. When compared to female healthy controls, the non-AVN group showed bilaterally similar compromised balance control with significantly decreased IA (p < 0.05) but increased RCIA (p < 0.04) in the sagittal plane during single-limb support (SLS) of the unaffected side, and in the frontal plane during terminal double-limb support (DLS) of the affected side. In contrast, the AVN increased between-side differences in the sagittal IA (p = 0.01), and sagittal and frontal RCIA during DLS (p < 0.04), leading to bilaterally asymmetrical balance control. Secondary AVN significantly reduced IA and RCIA in the sagittal plane (p < 0.05), and reduced range of RCIA in the frontal plane during initial DLS (p < 0.05). The trend reversed during terminal DLS, indicating a conservative COM-COP control in the sagittal plane and a compromised control in the frontal plane during body weight acceptance, with a compromised COM-COP control in the frontal plane during weight release. The current results suggest that increased between-side differences in the sagittal IA, and sagittal and frontal RCIA during DLS are a sign of AVN secondary to treated unilateral DDH in female juveniles, and should be monitored regularly for early identification of the disease.

Bilateral Asymmetry in Balance Control During Gait in Children with Treated Unilateral Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip. Gait Posture 2022; 92:223-229. [PMID: 34871927 DOI: 10.1016/j.gaitpost.2021.11.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2021] [Revised: 10/26/2021] [Accepted: 11/08/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION About 1% of the newborn population has developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), altering joint biomechanics, gait performance and balance control. Pemberton's osteotomy is used in early treatment but it remains unclear whether it will help the patient regain normal balance control during gait. The current study aimed to identify the changes of the whole-body balance control during level walking in children treated for unilateral DDH during toddlerhood, in terms of inclination angles (IA) of the line joining the body's center of mass (COM) and center of pressure (COP), and the rate of change of IA (RCIA). MATERIALS AND METHODS Twelve girls (DDH group; age: 7.1 ± 2.1 years) who had been treated with Pemberton's osteotomy for unilateral DDH during toddlerhood and twelve healthy controls (Control group; age: 7.6 ± 2.1 years) walked at their preferred walking speed while IA, RCIA and temporal-spatial parameters were calculated from measured kinematic and forceplate data, and were compared using independent t-tests. RESULTS Compared to the Control group, the DDH group showed significantly decreased sagittal IA (p = 0.042) but increased range of sagittal RCIA during SLS on the unaffected side (p = 0.006), and increased peak sagittal RCIA during DLS (p < 0.008). In the frontal plane, the altered COM-COP control occurred mainly during stance phase of the affected side, showing a decreased range of RCIA during SLS (p = 0.033) followed by decreased IA (p = 0.045) with an increased peak value of RCIA (p = 0.023) during terminal DLS. CONCLUSIONS The children with treated unilateral DDH showed compromised, bilaterally different balance control strategies with altered COM-COP control during gait, not only during stance in the frontal plane as expected, but even more so during swing in the sagittal plane. It is thus suggested that routine assessment of the morphological changes and/or altered balance control of both the unaffected and affected hips is equally important for early identification of any signs of insidious hip problems, deteriorating balance control or increased risk of loss of balance.

Abstract
Long-term follow-up studies on children with surgically treated developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) have shown that not only the affected side progresses to premature osteoarthritis, but the unaffected side may also suffer from insidious hip dysplasia or osteonecrosis. The current gait analysis study identified the loading and unloading rates of the ground reaction forces (GRF) and lower limb joint axial forces during gait, and their correlations with the hip morphology in twenty juvenile patients with surgically treated unilateral DDH during toddlerhood. In a gait laboratory, each subject walked at preferred speed on a 10-m walkway while the kinematics and the GRF were measured. Loading and unloading rates of the vertical GRF and the joint axial forces were obtained as the maximum instantaneous slope of these force curves. Radiographic measurements of the hips were taken, and the correlations between the morphological parameters and the loading and unloading rates were obtained. The patients showed greater-than-normal peak loading rates of the joint axial forces, and the loading rates on both the affected and unaffected sides were strongly correlated to the acetabular index on the unaffected side, which was also significantly correlated with the peak unloading rates on the affected side. These results suggest that apart from regular follow-up of the affected hip, routine assessment of the morphological changes and/or increased loading rates on the unaffected hip is also important for early identification of any signs of insidious hip dysplasia and risk of premature degeneration of the cartilage.

Abstract
Recent trends have led to an interest in Ponseti treatment for correcting neglected congenital clubfoot. Although good clinical and functional outcomes have been reported, the plantar pressure distribution after the treatment of neglected clubfoot has not been explored yet. The present study aimed to investigate whether plantar pressures normalized following Ponseti treatment in patients with neglected congenital clubfoot. Pedobarographic, clinical, and functional examinations were performed in 22 children (aged, 91.0 ± 40.3 months) with unilateral neglected congenital clubfeet, treated using Ponseti method at 27.8 ± 12.1 months of age. Plantar pressure parameters were recorded using a Footscan pressure plate. The contact time, contact area, peak pressure, and pressure-time integral were determined. The data of the affected feet were compared with those of the unaffected feet and healthy controls. Although clinical and functional examinations showed satisfactory results according to the Dimeglio and Pirani scores, considerable differences in plantar pressure parameters were identified among the affected feet, unaffected feet, and healthy controls. Internal foot progression angle and a load transfer from the medial forefoot and hindfoot to the lateral forefoot and midfoot were observed in the affected feet. Future studies should attempt to investigate the factors accounting for plantar pressure deviations and the possible effect of these deviations on the lower limb musculoskeletal development of children.

Abstract
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) often leads to altered balance control, joint motion and loading patterns during gait. Acupuncture has been proven to be effective in pain relief but its effects on inter-joint load-sharing for body balance have not been reported. The current study bridged the gap by quantifying the immediate effects of acupuncture on the inter-joint and inter-limb load-sharing in patients with knee OA during level walking in terms of the total support moment (Ms) and the contribution of individual joints to the total support moment. Gait analysis was performed on fifteen healthy controls and on fifteen patients with mild to moderate bilateral medial knee OA. After acupuncture treatment the patients with bilateral knee OA walked with significantly increased speed ([Formula: see text]), and were able to resist greater and closer-to-normal knee flexion moments ([Formula: see text]). They also changed the inter-joint sharing of the support moments with increased knee ([Formula: see text]) contributions, but reduced hip contributions ([Formula: see text]) to the sagittal Ms during single-limb support. They showed an asymmetric inter-limb load-sharing similar to the normal controls, with increased sharing of the time integral of both the sagittal and frontal whole body support moment by the leading limb during double-limb support ([Formula: see text]). The altered intra- and inter-limb contributions to the demand of supporting the body during gait suggests that acupuncture treatment led to immediate changes in the control strategy toward a normal pattern. However, the effects of these changes on the progression of the disease in the long term would require further investigation.

Abstract
Although Pemberton osteotomy has shown a high success rate even in older children, the occurrence of osteonecrosis (ON) remains one of the most severe complications, leading to premature osteoarthritis. Patients with type II ON are characterized by a valgus deformity of the proximal femur with altered musculoskeletal conditions, affecting the ability to attenuate or sustain the impulsive loading from the ground reaction force. It remains unclear whether these conditions also predispose these patients to harmful impulsive loadings. This study aimed to bridge the gap by measuring the loading rates in the lower limbs during level walking in adolescents who were treated during their infancy for unilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip by a pelvic osteotomy, with or without having developed type II ON. Patients with type II ON were found to display increased loading rates, not only at both the affected and unaffected hip, but also at other joints of the affected limb during level walking when compared to patients without ON changes (p < 0.05). These results suggest that patients with type II ON may be at a higher risk of developing premature hip osteoarthritis that is closely related to abnormal loading rates during gait. It is suggested that regular monitoring of joint loading rates in patients with type II ON is necessary for early identification of damaging loadings, and that early intervention aimed at reducing these loadings should be considered. © 2016 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Abstract
Hip dysplasia is a treatable developmental disorder that presents early in life but if neglected can lead to chronic disability due to pain, decreased function, and early osteoarthritis. The main causes of hip dysplasia in the young adult are residual childhood developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and adolescent-onset acetabular dysplasia. These two distinct disease processes affect the growing hip during different times of development but result in a similar deformity and pathomechanism of hip degeneration. Routine screening for DDH and counseling regarding risks for acetabular dysplasia in families with a history of early hip osteoarthritis may allow early identification and intervention in these hips with anatomical risk factors for joint degeneration.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is critical in the occurrence and development of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DC). Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been found to be the third gaseous signaling molecule with anti‑ER stress effects. Previous studies have shown that H2S acts as a potent inhibitor of fibrosis in the heart of diabetic rats. This study aimed to demonstrate whether H2S exhibits protective effects on the myocardium of streptozotocin (STZ)‑induced diabetic rats by suppressing ER stress. In this study, diabetic models were established by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of 40 mg/kg STZ. The STZ‑treated mice were divided into three groups, and subsequently treated with normal saline, 30 µmol/kg or 100 µmol/kg NaHS, i.p., respectively, for 8 weeks. The extent of myocyte hypertrophy was measured using hematoxylin and eosin‑stained sections and collagen components were investigated using immunostaining. The expression of glucose-regulated protein (Grp78), C/EBP‑homologous protein (CHOP) and caspase‑12 in the heart tissue of each group was detected by western blot analysis. It was demonstrated that H2S could improve myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial collagen deposition in diabetic rats. In addition, it could reduce the expression of Grp78, caspase-12 and CHOP. In conclusion, these findings demonstrate that H2S suppresses STZ‑induced ER stress in the hearts of rats, and it may serve as a novel cardioprotective agent for DC.

Abstract
Successful clinical and radiographic outcomes have been reported in patients with unilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) following Pemberton pericapsular osteotomy (PPO). However, residual gait deviations are seen in both the affected and unaffected limbs. To date it is not known whether these deviations result in abnormal plantar pressure in such patients. This study investigated this possibility by performing pedobarographic, clinical, and radiographic examinations after PPO in 20 patients (age: 102.5 ± 19.0 months) with unilateral DDH who underwent PPO at 34.2 ± 9.8 months of age. Plantar pressure was evaluated using the Footscan pressure plate (RsScan International, Olen, Belgium). Each foot was subdivided into 10 zones and peak pressure, force-time integral as a percentage of total FTI, and contact time as a percentage of total stance time was estimated. The minimum duration of follow-up was 24 months (mean: 68.3 ± 20.3 months). The data were compared with 20 age- and weight-matched healthy controls. Despite clinical and radiographic examinations showing satisfactory results according to modified McKay and Severin criteria, significant differences in plantar pressure parameters were identified between the affected limbs, the unaffected limbs, and normal controls. No significant differences were found between patients classified as "excellent or good" and those rated as "fair" according to the modified Severin criteria. Pedobarographic results showed the existence of the residual plantar pressure deviations during walking in patients treated with PPO for unilateral DDH. Longer follow-up will be needed to more fully evaluate the effect of these deviations on gait.

Abstract
Early reduction using Pemberton's osteotomy has been suggested for treating DDH but no data on the long-term residual gait changes in such patients are available in the literature. This study aimed to bridge the gap by performing quantitative gait analysis on eleven females (age: 10.6 ± 1.0 years) who were treated for unilateral DDH using open reduction with Pemberton's osteotomy at 1.6 ± 0.5 years of age, and eleven age-matched healthy controls. Walking at a normal speed, the Pemberton group displayed significantly more anterior tilt, hiking at the affected side and rotation towards the unaffected side of the pelvis, and more knee flexion and ankle dorsiflexion in the affected limb. With this asymmetrical gait, they appeared to reduce the demands on the hip flexors and abductors, and knee extensors in the affected limb, which might have been involved during the osteotomy, but increased compensatory efforts from the hip extensors, ankle plantarflexors and knee flexors in the unaffected limb.
