@LindsayBIOMECH Medial trochlea forces elbow into valgus, which is similar to the screw home of the knee, mechanically. Make sense? #PTH414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@LindsayBIOMECH this mechanism on 191-2 is screw home from the point of increasing joint stability (b/c interosseus membrane is slack)

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@healthnut003 yes, and the natural tension in the tissues causes the "gripping" #PTH414

@TeofiloKathryn you're up for research group sign up!

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@GinoJohn3 Sorry, see your email for the new link.

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@Torque4life depends, they are important for being able to grip around things due to its motion/flexibility. #PTH414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@lombardi66 not sure but I believe yes, surgery would be needed. #PTH414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@ToriRuffing They are 2 different osteokinematic movements! #PTH414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@Krista_Marie28 CPP - full extension, LPP - slight flexion

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@Krista_Marie28 it can have both! they are 2 different things. #PTH414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@NewtonsFave they are functionally the same thing! #PTH414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@healthnut003 they are going to flex and extend and then also rotate internally 27 and 22 degrees respectively. #PTH414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@AbigailAnne11 not really, tenodesis is using the body's natural tension (passive) to accomplish the task holding a glass w/o muscle #PTH414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@calderks yes, usually the heavier, the greater the coactivation. #PTH414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@GinoJohn3 You're up to sign up for research groups!

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@calderks both, think of it as two axes of "rotation" in a way. #PTH414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@AbigailAnne11 Yes, it is relatively stable and motionless until it is needed (e.g. 60 degrees of shoulder abduction) #PTh414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@LindsayBIOMECH what page? #PTh414

[PTH404-Biomechanics @PTH404]

@LindsayBIOMECH The larger medial lip of the trochlea influences the increased carrying angle. #PTH414
