▼ Hintergrund: Patellaluxation (PL) und Ruptur des vorderen Kreuzbandes (KBR) sind die häufigsten Pathologien des Kniegelenkes bei Hunden kleinwüchsiger Rassen. Es gibt viele Studien zur Patellaluxation oder Kreuzbandruptur, aber nur wenige davon untersuchen die Kombination der beiden Pathologien. Diese ist besonders bei kleinen Hunden ein häufiger Befund. Ziel dieser Studie war es die Häufigkeit von KBR von Hunden kleinwüchsiger Rassen in der Studienpopulation, Risikofaktoren, Behandlungsmethoden und die Ergebnisse nach chirurgischer Behandlung zu evaluieren. Material und Methoden: In der Zeit von 2004 bis 2016 wurden in der Klinik für Kleine Haustiere der Freien Universität Berlin 233 Hunde kleinwüchsiger Rassen wegen einer Patellaluxation operiert. Durch die klinische Untersuchung wurde bei 52 Hunden (23%) zusätzlich eine Ruptur des vorderen Kreuzbandes festgestellt. Zwei Gruppen erfüllten die Einschlusskriterien. Die erste Gruppe bestand aus 55 Hunden (97 Kniegelenken) mit Patellaluxation (PL Gruppe), während die zweite Gruppe aus 26 Hunden (33 Kniegelenke) mit Patellaluxation und einer Ruptur des vorderen Kreuzbandes (PL+CCLR Gruppe) bestand. Ergebnisse: 23% der Hunde mit Patellaluxation litten zugleich auch an einem Kreuzbandriss. Übergewicht und zunehmendes Alter wurden bei Patienten mit Patellaluxation als Risikofaktoren für KBR identifiziert. In dieser Studie waren Malteser die einzige Rasse, die für PL und KBR prädisponiert war. Höhere Grade von PL standen nicht in Bezug zur KBR. Die Kombination von “Trochleakeilvertiefung” mit einer “Transposition der Tuberositas tibiae” und einer "Fascia Over the top” oder “Kapsel und Faszienraffung”- Technik wurden durchgeführt, um Kniegelenke (n=28) mit beiden Pathologien zu behandeln. Bei zwei Fällen war eine “Transposition der Tuberositas tibiae” nicht erforderlich. 90% der chirurgischen Kniegelenkskorrekturen erbrachten ein hervorragendes Resultat. Fazit: Als Resultat der Pathophysiologie von PL und KBR kommt ein multifaktorieller Komplex in Frage. Eine Kombination von Faktoren wie zunehmendes Alter, Degeneration des Ligamentes, Übergewicht, Luxation in mediale Richtung sowie die Rasse könnten für die Pathogenese ausschlaggebend sein. Weitere Studien sind notwendig. Advisors/Committee Members: male (gender), Brunnberg, Leo (firstReferee), Plendl, Johanna (furtherReferee), Gruber, Achim (furtherReferee).

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar os aspectos clínicos e morfofisiológicos da articulação do joelho de ratos após imobilização prolongada e remobilização com atividade livre e natação. Trinta e quatro ratos adultos machos (Wistar) foram alocados aleatoriamente em um dos quatro grupos: sem imobilização (G1, n = 4), com imobilização (G2, n = 10), imobilização e remobilização com atividade livre (G3, n = 10), imobilização e remobilização com atividade livre e natação (G4, n = 10). Os animais tiveram o joelho direito imobilizado por 45 dias. Os animais do G2 foram sacrificados após o período de imobilização, juntamente com os animais do G1. Após o período de imobilização os animais do G3 movimentaram livremente em suas respectivas gaiolas e os animais do G4, além da movimentação na gaiola, foram submetidos a um programa de natação por 5 semanas, sendo todos sacrificados em seguida. Durante este período de remobilização os animais dos G3 e G4 foram submetidos a avaliação clínica da marcha. Após sacrifício a resistência à flexão articular do joelho direito de todos os animais foi avaliada e cortes histológicos da cápsula articular, cartilagem e osso subcondral foram obtidos. Os resultados mostraram que os animais do G4 apresentaram melhor evolução na marcha nos cinco primeiros dias, em relação àqueles do G3. Após este período a evolução na marcha foi similar nos G3 e G4. Animais do G2 apresentaram rigidez articular enquanto nos do G3 e G4 o movimento estava próximo ao normal. A análise histológica mostrou que a imobilização promoveu aumento da espessura da cápsula articular, evidenciada pela presença do tecido conjuntivo fibroso substituindo o tecido adiposo no G2, mas em menor proporção nos G3 e G4. Pela análise da cartilagem articular e osso subcondral pode-se observar que a imobilização determinou perda de proteoglicanos da matriz cartilaginosa, aumento do número de condrócitos dispostos de forma irregular, aumento da espessura da cartilagem calcificada, irregularidade da superfície articular, proliferação de tecido conjuntivo no espaço intra-articular e aumento da espessura do osso subcondral. Os animais do G3 apresentaram um maior número de alterações tanto na cartilagem articular como no osso subcondral, quando comparados com aqueles do G4. Concluiu-se que a imobilização degenerou as células sinoviais, indicando diminuição da produção de fluido sinovial e redução do suprimento nutricional à cartilagem; e que tanto a atividade livre na gaiola quanto sua associação com a natação influenciaram positivamente o retorno das condições morfológicas da cápsula, anteriores à imobilização.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and morphophisiological aspects of the rat knee articulation after immobilization and remobilization with free activity and swimming. Thirty four adult male rats (Wistar) were randomly allocated into one of four groups: without immobilization, (G1, n = 4), with immobilization (G2, n = 10), immobilization and remobilization with free activity (G3, n = 10), and immobilization and…

▼ Males (58.7%) were more affected than females (4l.3%).Majority of the patients were in the 26- 50 years age group, with the right knee (67.4%) being affected more than the left (32.6%). The commonest findings encountered were meniscal tears and joint effusions constituting 78.3% and 65.2% of the cases seen respectively. Both showed a male predilection. Other pathologies seen included chondromalacia patellae, cruciate ligament tears, collateral ligament disruptions, bone bruises, patella tendinosis, synovitis and intraarticular loose bodies.MRI and arthroscopic findings of 46 knees with varied pathologies were reviewed in a retrospective - prospective study that covered the period between January 2006 and August 2007. The Knee magnetic Resonance Imaging was carried out at five Radiological centers providing MRI services in Nairobi. These centers are: 1) Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH); 2) Medical Imaging and Therapeutic Centre-Nairobi (MITC); 3) Aga Khan University Hospital-Nairobi (AKUH); 4) MRI centre-Nairobi and 5) The Nairobi Hospital. The study was carried out in collaboration with two Orthopaedic and Trauma surgeons carrying out Knee arthroscopic surgery in Nairobi. There were 30 retrospective and 16 prospective cases collected during the duration of the study. All the 46 knees included in the study had both MRI findings and corresponding knee arthroscopic data acquired following diagnostic or therapeutic knee arthroscopic surgery. The Knee MRI images / reports done before the surgery and the arthroscopic findings of the corresponding knee formed the basis of this study. The aim of this study was to determine the pattern of knee joint pathology as seen at five radiological imaging centres in Nairobi by MRI, the age and sex distribution and correlate these findings to the arthroscopic findings. MRI showed a high sensitivity in the medial meniscus, where it was sensitive in detecting a tear in 8'8.9% of cases. Sensitivity for tears in the lateral meniscus was higher at 93.3%. However, specificity for a meniscal tear was lower in the medial meniscus than in the lateral meniscus (36.1 % and 63.3% respectively). The sensitivity and specificity of the MRI for anterior cruciate ligament rupture (whether complete or partial) was 83.3% and 90.9% respectively, For the articular cartilage, sensitivity was 46.2% and 16.7010 for femoral and tibial articular cartilage abnormalities with a specificity of 8l.8% and 75.0% respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of the MRI for chondromalacia patellae was 26.7% and 8l.8% respectively. The results of this study support the use of MRI in the diagnosis of internal derangements of the knee. However, it should always be used in conjunction with a full history and clinical examination.

▼ This study compared for the first time the osseous healing, the intraosseous remodeling and the bone remodeling between soft tissue autografts and fresh- frozen allografts with extracortical fixation in a sheep model. Altogether 54 female Merino-Mix sheep, aged 2-3 years, were included in the study. In these animals the tendons of M. flexor digitalis were removed and inserted during the same operation as cruciate ligament substitute, or they were kept for at least one week at a temperature of -80°C and were then inserted in another animal as allografts. The experimental animals were divided into 2 groups (autologous/allogeneic), each of them with 3 different periods of observation (6, 12 or 52 weeks, resp.). In order to improve the judgement on boneremodeling 3 fluorescence markers (calcein-green, xylenol-orange and tetracycline) were applied additionally at 3 different times. After killing the sheep microscopic sections were stained, using Masson-Goldner-trichrome, safranin-O ad modum Kossa or alcian blue, respectively. The quantitative microscopic examination of the preparations was done partly by the help of a polarization microscope. To compare the results of descriptive statistics the grade of direct ligament insertion was determined by the semiquantitative score according to Unterhauser et al. (2006). It was shown that extracortical indirect fixation of the soft tissue graft facilitates an anatomical neoinsertion after 52 weeks. In the literature this was unmentioned till date. Osseous tendon-to-bone-healing as well as intraosseous remodeling of soft tissue grafts from human donors, so-called allografts, require more time than autologous grafts. In the autograft group first signs of the development of a direct ligament insertion at the tibial tunnel entrance were seen after 6 weeks already. Remodeling activity at the anterior tibial tunnel aperture site (tensile site) (grade II) was more pronounced than at the posterior site (grade I). In allografts only a few chondroid cells were seen. Bone- incorporation and ligament remodeling of autografts were more advanced than in allografts. A typical direct ligament insertion was already found in autologous reconstructions after 12 weeks, especially at the tibial tunnel entrance. All maturity levels of a direct ligament insertion were found along the other tunnel sections. Indications of a mature direct ligament insertion could also be observed after 12 weeks, but overall maturity was less in allocompared to autologous animals. A neoligament inserted with a mature direct ligament insertion at the bone 52 weeks after reconstruction in all auto- and allograft reconstructions. In comparison to the native cruciate ligament no histological differences could be found. This study focused on the bony incoporation and development of neoinsertion of an ACL graft. More studies are needed to assess the intraarticular healing of auto- and allografts, which ensues parallel to the bony incorporation of the grafts. These results will provide a complete overview of the differences of… Advisors/Committee Members: w (gender), Prof. Dr. Roland Rudolph (firstReferee), Priv.-Doz. Dr. med.

▼ Recovery of walking function is among the foremost goals of stroke survivors, thus, identification of effective and efficient approaches to restore gait post-stroke is a high priority.1 Unfortunately, current rehabilitative therapies do not sufficiently retrain walking function. At least half of stroke survivors are unable to remediate gait dysfunction.2,3 This lack of therapeutic efficacy results, in part, because the capacity for such recovery is poorly understood. Equally important, current therapies likely fail to address the most appropriate targets for rehabilitation. Therefore the purpose of this dissertation was to identify previously unrecognized biomechanical mechanisms of gait dysfunction post stroke. Current practices in stroke rehabilitation and research include classifying walking function based on gait speed;4-8 however, gait speed alone is unable to elucidate biomechanical mechanisms of gait dysfunction post stroke. We classified individuals post-stroke on a biomechanical parameter important to gait, pelvic excursion, which identified three groups who demonstrated various functional and temporal impairments of key parameters of gait. Additionally, multiple current intervention approaches target the remediation of foot drop.9-12 However, little evidence supports the assumed presence of dorsiflexor dysfunction, implicit in these interventions. To investigate the appropriateness of these interventions, we performed sensitivity analysis to determine the relative contributions of each sagittal plane joint angle to limb clearance. We first used the sensitivity analysis in a healthy cohort walking at three progressively slower speeds to determine the appropriateness of speed-matching. Next we investigated the relative contribution of each sagittal plane joint angle on paretic limb clearance. Third, we investigated the response of these contributions to a walking-related intervention. And finally, we quantified these contributions for the groups identified from our pelvic classification. We found sensitivity measures are speed-dependent and thus speed-matched individuals post-stroke with non-disabled controls for comparison. Investigation of the relative contributions of each joint angle to limb clearance post-stroke revealed dysfunction of the coordination between the hip and knee, rather than dorsiflexor impairment. Both hip and knee contributions improved following treatment. Unique impairments were identified between groups classified on pelvic excursion. Our findings suggest redirecting treatment emphasis away from remediation of, or compensation for, dorsiflexor impairment post-stroke is warranted.

▼ Following a staged intervention with 5 weeks of power training followed by 3 weeks of gait training we identified 2 distinct groups of individuals based on the improvement in their walking speed: responders and non-responders. Ernst in his review on stroke rehabilitation in 1990 had expressed an urgent need to design well-planned clinical trials aimed at finding the best treatment approach and discriminating potential responders. However, this issue has only recently been investigated. Stroke is one of the most leading causes of disability worldwide and leaves more than 67% of individuals who have walking impairment following stroke unable to achieve independent walking.Consequently, walking recovery is one of the most articulated goals in stroke rehabilitation.Moreover a large clinical trial recently showed that only about 52% of individuals post subacute stroke improve their walking function following intervention.Consequently, there is an urgent need to understand why some individuals respond to treatment to a greater extent and how this information can be used in clinics to the advantage of a clinician. This dissertation informs us that individuals who respond have better lateral stabilization of their pelvis and are able to transfer weight from the paretic to the non-paretic leg more efficiently at baseline.Moreover, they achieve improvement in their walking speed following treatment by using restoration as well as compensation both proximally and distally whereas non-responders use intra-limb compensation by more proximal muscles and inter-limb compensation by the non-paretic leg. Finally, using a multivariate approach by a combination of Sure Independent Screening, Envelope model and Fischer Discriminant analysis we also developed a criterion based on 8 key gait measures at baseline which could a priori identify the potential responders.

▼ Excessive contact forces in the medial compartment of the knee during walking are believed to progress articular cartilage damage in osteoarthritis. Abnormally large adduction moments of the knee from gait analyses have been linked to progression and severity of this disease. The results of the first study presented here indicate that reducing the knee adduction moment does not necessarily guarantee a reduction in corresponding contact forces. Therefore, a more accurate measurement of the loads on the knee, especially the balance between contact and muscle forces, is desired for a subject-specific biomechanical analysis of subjects with neuromusculoskeletal disorders. However, the inability to easily measure muscle forces in vivo, along with the inability to calculate unique muscle forces directly, has greatly hindered achievement of this goal. The use ofelectromyography (EMG) to constrain shapes of muscle excitations has been helpful to produce muscle force estimates, but require EMG-to-force models with unknown model parameters and EMG collection is limited to a subset of leg muscles. The concept of neural synergies is developed here to parameterize the muscle excitations of all muscles based on a small set of time varying neural commands. The second and third studies presented here investigated how the complexity of EMG-to-force models, and the inclusion of EMG tracking or neural synergy parameterization, affect estimates of muscle and contact forces in the leg during walking using optimization methods. The investigations were performed using experimental motion capture,ground reaction, EMG, and knee contact loads collected from a subject implanted with a force-measuring tibial prosthesis. A small trend for better contact force predictions was found with the use of synergies to constrain muscle excitations and also with the removal of EMG tracking. It is believed that EMG-based constraint methods suffer from the difficulties of accurate EMG collection,model parameter uncertainty, and the lack of experimental excitation-magnitude constraints. Further research should be performed to determine how well the complexity of EMG-to-force models affects contact force estimates and to determine the best model parameter calibration techniques for EMG-based muscle force estimations ( en ) Advisors/Committee Members: Fregly, Benjamin J (committee chair), Banks, Scott A (committee member), Rao, Anil (committee member), Conrad, Bryan (committee member).

▼ Traumatic meniscal tears often occur during sports activities. Many patients receive meniscectomy to re-establish normal knee function and facilitate return to sport participation. However, quadriceps weakness is a common impairment after meniscectomy. As quadriceps weakness is related to poor knee function and articular cartilage degradation, restoring quadriceps strength after meniscectomy is imperative. In addition, psychosocial factors can be altered after knee injury. The overall goal of this dissertation was to compare the effects of targeted quadriceps strengthening and standard rehabilitation on knee function and impairments over 1-year after meniscectomy, to explore the interaction between quadriceps strength and psychosocial factors after meniscectomy, and to examine the contributions of quadriceps strength and psychosocial factors to function and movement patterns of the knee. No differences were found between the targeted quadriceps strengthening group and standard rehabilitation group in self-reported knee function, tibial cartilage volume and defect score, and quadriceps impairments. Pain catastrophizing and fear of movement/re-injury improved from pre-surgery to post-intervention. Pre-surgical pain catastrophizing was positively associated with knee pain at 1-year post-surgery. Pre-surgical fear of movement/re-injury was positively associated with knee function at 1-year post-surgery in the targeted quadriceps strengthening group, but negatively associated with knee function at 1-year post-surgery in standard rehabilitation group. In both groups combined, the surgical limb showed reduced knee flexion excursion compared to the non-surgical limb during the weight acceptance phase of gait, and the change in pain catastrophizing was negatively associated with the change in peak vertical ground force from pre-surgery to post-intervention. In addition, the surgical limb showed reduced peak knee flexion angle and knee extension moment compared to the non-surgical limb during the landing phase of a single leg hop. Rate of knee extensor torque development was positively associated with single leg hop performance, as well as the peak knee flexion angle and knee extension moment. Self-efficacy for knee activity was also positively associated with single leg hop performance. In summary, the targeted quadriceps strengthening intervention did not result in better knee function and less impairments. Psychosocial factors and rate of knee extensor torque development may influence functional performance and movement patterns after meniscectomy.

▼ Women are susceptible to knee injuries, like torn ligaments, and diseases such as osteoarthritis and sarcopenia. Researchers in the fields of physical therapy, sports science, and medicine have been investigating topics centered around the complex joint that are tedious, expensive, or lack of accuracy. The present study provides a new engineering technique approach to women’s knees that is non-invasive and insightful. The objective of this research is to evaluate a non-invasive method to study the behavior of women’s knees. Digital imaging correlation (DIC) is a high-resolution camera system that calculates deformation in subjects through tracking a pattern applied to the surface. Offering many benefits in comparison to past strain measurement devices, DIC could potentially provide supplemental data to the research surrounding the injury prone knee joint. The scope of this study focuses on the feasibility of utilizing DIC in the biomechanical field and implementing an application process to ensure accurate results on active humans, specifically targeting the knee. In order to apply DIC on moving knees, a new method was developed to enable quality images. Temporary tattoo paper provided a safe, easy, and quick pattern application to the skin without hindering its natural behavior. A pattern was developed specifically for analyzing a squat like motion in which the field of view, system set up, and curvature of the knee were contributing factors to the development. Two studies used this technique. The first study hypothesized that performing resistance banded squats would utilize neuromuscular activation for proper control to reduce the knee valgus position of participants knees, which is linked to injury. Displacement data was compared to evaluate the hypothesis. The second study compared the knee of a mother and daughter duo aged 30 years apart. DIC captured the effects of aging like osteoarthritis, sarcopenia, and loss of elasticity in skin. Overall, DIC captured the skin’s movements, which consequently result from the behavior of the variety of tissue underneath the surface. In concluding, this work proves DIC as feasible and provides a method to accurately apply reliable speckle patterns to the skin of active humans. The technique can be implemented into future studies concerning a variety of fields. Advisors/Committee Members: Liang, Hong (advisor), Gonezen, Sevan (advisor), Antao, Dion (committee member).

▼ Articular cartilage lesions generally do not heal, or heal only partially under certain biological conditions. They are frequently associated with disability and with symptoms such as joint pain, locking phenomena and reduced or disturbed function. Moreover, such lesions are generally believed to progress to severe forms of osteoarthritis. This limited ability for self- repair of hyaline cartilage is caused by specific tissue properties, partly because of its low cellularity and partly because of its lack of vascular supply. In the case that the defect is larger than a certain critical size, spontaneous subchondral bone healing even fails. In these critical defects, bone resorption at the base of the defect is observed. Biomechanical analysis suggests that bone resorption is related to inappropriate mechanical conditions at the base of the defect. Therefore, early reconstruction of the subchondral structure to permit load transfer appears to be essential not only for the regeneration of the subchondral bone but also the overlying cartilage. Numerous methods have been devised to augment its natural healing response, but these methods generally lead to filling of the defects with fibrous tissue or fibrocartilage, which lacks the mechanical characteristics of articular cartilage and fails with time. Two of the more common cartilage repair procedures are autologe chondrocyte implantation (ACI) and autologe osteochondral transplantation (AOT). Recently, tissue engineering has emerged as a new discipline that amalgamates aspects from biology, engineering, material science and surgery. Tissue engineering has as a goal the fabrication of functional new tissue to replace damaged tissue. Biodegradable scaffolds offer a new treatment alternative for full-thickness osteochondral defects of critical size that fail to heal spontaneously by providing a supportive matrix that also encourages the in-growth of cell and tissues. These scaffold materials must fulfil specific requirements with respect to the demands for mechanical stability and biocompatibility. The goal is still to promote repair of subchondral bone with restoration of the cortical plate and an overlay of normal hyaline articular cartilage. In twenty four adult merino ewes osteochondral defects in the femoral condyle were created and the subchondral bone was reconstructed with either a stiff or a soft scaffold. In order to analyze the influence of scaffold stiffness, a commercial scaffold was used to reconstruct the subchondral bone of a critical osteochondral defect. The scaffold was composed of polylactide-co-glycolide (PLG) copolymer for providing structure and calcium sulfate for enhancing bone growth. An untreated defect was created in other condyle of the same knee which served as an untreated control. After three and six months the osteochondral repair has been evaluated by immunohistological, histological and histomorphometric assessments. MRI studies were performed six months postoperatively. The histological and MRI findings show that the mechanical scaffold… Advisors/Committee Members: w (gender), Univ.-Prof. Dr. A. Sterner-Kock (firstReferee), Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. G.

La conception des robots humanoïdes est un défi depuis plusieurs années. Les articulations de l'être humain de par leur complexité cinématique créent des mouvements difficilement reproductibles par un mécanisme. Le genou humain permet des mouvements composés de roulement et de glissement. La conception de nouvelles articulations bio-inspirées est un enjeu pour recréer avec un robot une marche anthropomorphe. Une analyse de la cinématique des genoux a été effectuée et nous proposons une solution mécanique pour reproduire cette cinématique de genoux. L'idée est de recréer un genou avec un contact roulant entre le fémur et le tibia. Les modèles géométriques, cinématiques et dynamiques et un modèle d'impact sont développés pour un robot bipède muni de ce genou à contacts roulants. L'allure de marche est étudiée sous forme d'un problème d'optimisation paramétrique sous contraintes. Les trajectoires de marche sont approximées par des fonctions mathématiques pour deux allures de marche : une allure de simple support avec impacts et une allure de double support suivi d'un simple support puis d'un impact. Des critères énergétiques permettent de comparer le robot muni du mécanisme de genoux roulants à un robot muni de genoux à liaison rotoïde. Les résultats des optimisations montrent que le genou roulant apporte une diminution du critère sthénique. L'optimisation énergétique montre que les couples articulaires sont plus faibles sur les hanches ce qui engendre une diminution de la masse des actionneurs du robot. Enfin, un gain d'énergie est possible en associant des systèmes à ressorts en parallèle sur les articulations du robot.

The design of humanoids robot has been a tricky challenge for several years. Due to the kinematic complexity of human joints, their movements are notoriously difficult to be reproduced by a mechanism. The human knees allow movements including rolling and sliding, and therefore the design of new bio-inspired robots is of utmost importance for the reproduction of anthropomorphic walking in a robot. In this thesis, the kinematic characteristics of knees were analyzed and a mechanical solution reproducing them is proposed. The geometrical, kinematic and dynamic models are created together with an impact model for a piped robot with the knees proposed. The walking is studied as of a problem of parametric optimization under constraints. The trajectories of walking are simulated approximately by mathematical functions for two gaits: one of a single support with impacts and one of double supports followed by a simple support and then an impact. Energy criteria allow comparing the robot provided with the mechanism of rolling knees and a robot provided with revolute knees connection. The results of the optimizations show that the rolling knee brings a decrease of the sthenic criterion. The energy optimization shows that the articular couples are weaker on hips what engenders a decrease of the mass of the actuators of the robot. Finally, energy gains are possible by associating spring systems.

▼ Limited coverage has been given to comparative studies involving the nature of cultural discourse between American Indians and American mainstream society. Thisthesis compares two incidents of American Indian and American mainstream discourse involving rare similar circumstances and substantially different outcomes.In 1996, two sets of ancient remains were discovered, one eroding out of the banks of the Columbia River, in Kennewick, Washington, and one discovered during acave exploration on Prince Wales Island, Alaska. The remains discovered in Kennewick became the focus of an almost decade long battle between a group of eight scientists and the landowners, the Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), which had denied the scientistsaccess to study the remains. USACE, representing tribal interests, wished to repatriate the remains to five tribes who had submitted a claim of ownership. After years ofdispute, the federal district court held that the remains were not Native American and therefore fell under the Archaeological Resource Protection Act (ARPA) making them a cultural resource, and granted the scientist plaintiffs the right to study the remains. The 9th Circuit court of Appeals upheld the District Court’s opinion.In contrast, the agreement by tribes to support study of the remains discovered at On Your Knees Cave in Alaska faced a 2-week discussion of government officials,interested scientists, and Alaska tribes. All agreed on a plan of scientific study and excavation of the site. Twelve years later, after all requested analysis had beencompleted, a coalition of interested tribes filed a claim of ownership, and in 2008 the remains were repatriated and reburied.The research question of this thesis was simple: What role did culture play in these two events, and, if it played a significant part, how did culture affect the resultingescalation and de-escalation of conflict.This thesis explores the impact of culture, specifically, differences in cultural element placement, priority, and privilege that led to the disparate amounts of conflict.

O presente trabalho consistiu em avaliar a utilização de duas técnicas cirúrgicas diferentes (Sutura fabelo tibial lateral e Osteotomia de nivelamento da meseta tibial) no tratamento da rotura do ligamento cruzado cranial em cães, mediante a descrição de quatro casos clínico-cirúrgicos. A rotura do ligamento cruzado cranial é uma das doenças ortopédicas de maior prevalência em cães. O seu quadro evolutivo leva a uma série de alterações articulares que culminam num decréscimo acentuado da sua função e consequente diminuição da qualidade de vida dos animais. Existem várias técnicas cirúrgicas para corrigir esta lesão e limitar a evolução das alterações articulares instaladas. As duas técnicas utilizadas no presente trabalho, assentam em diferentes princípios, sendo que uma é extracapsular e através de um implante tem a finalidade de mimetizar a função do ligamento cruzado cranial. A outra técnica, visa através de uma osteotomia, alterar a biomecânica do joelho, tendo como objetivo abdicar da necessidade funcional deste mesmo ligamento tornando-o redundante. A eleição da técnica consiste na ponderação de diferentes fatores como o elevado ângulo da meseta tibial, o peso corporal e estilo de vida do doente, assim como a disponibilidade financeira do tutor. Nos casos clínicos descritos no presente trabalho, ambas as técnicas utilizadas revelaram resultados satisfatórios, ainda que todos os doentes tenham demonstrado um período de recuperação pós-cirúrgico variável. Fatores como hiperatividade, cuidados como reabilitação física e intervenções cirúrgicas a ambos os joelhos, contribuíram para essa variação, assim como a cronicidade da doença.

The present work consisted in the evaluation of two distinct surgical techniques (Lateral suture system and Tibial plateau levelling osteotomy) for the treatment of the cranial cruciate ligament rupture in the dog, by using the description of four clinical study cases. The cranial cruciate ligament rupture is one of the most common orthopedic diseases in dogs. Its clinical panel leads to a series of joint changes that culminate in the lost of function and, consequently, in lower quality of life for the animals. There are several surgical techniques described in the literature that can be applied in the correction of this injury and limit the progression of the changes in the joints affected. Two of these techniques were used in the present work and rely on different principals. One is an extracapsular technique that by using one implant, acquires the ability to mimic the function of the cranial cruciate ligament. The other technique, demands a change on the biomechanics of the stifle joint and is achieved by an osteotomy. This last technique intends to waver the functional need of the ligament turning it redundant. The selection of one or other technique takes in consideration several factors as the high opening of the tibial plateau angle, the animal weigh, the life style of the dog and the financial possibility of the owner. In the clinical cases presented in this work, both…
