نموذج فأر لعدم استقرار المفصل المعقد في الكاحل تحت الكاحل

Overview

The study focuses on the ankle-subtalar complex joint (ASCJ), essential for balance control during daily activities. It presents a mouse model of ligament transection-induced instability in the ASCJ, providing insights for clinical foot disease research.

Key Study Components

Research Area

• Orthopedic research
• Biomechanics
• Animal models for foot diseases

Background

• The ASCJ's role in foot stability and injury response.
• Importance of accurate animal models for clinical relevance.
• Understanding sports-related joint instability.

Methods Used

• Mouse model of ligament transection
• Balance and gait training assessments
• Histological examination of joint architecture

Main Results

• Successful establishment of a clinically relevant ASCJ instability model.
• Assessment of gait performance and balance post-surgery.
• Histological verification of joint structure post-dissection.

Conclusions

• The model enhances understanding of foot joint instability.
• It provides a platform for studying diagnosis and treatment strategies for foot diseases.
