The movements of the humerus, the clavicle, and the scapula are not completely independent. The coupled pattern of movement of these bones is called the shoulder rhythm. To date, multiple studies have focused on providing regression-based 3-D shoulder rhythms, in which the orientations of the clavicle and the scapula are estimated by the orientation of the humerus. In this study, six existing regression-based shoulder rhythms were evaluated by an independent dataset in terms of their predictability. The datasets include the measured orientations of the humerus, the clavicle, and the scapula of 14 participants over 118 different upper arm postures. The predicted orientations of the clavicle and the scapula were derived from applying those regression-based shoulder rhythms to the humerus orientation. The results indicated that none of those regression-based shoulder rhythms provides consistently more accurate results than the others. For all the joint angles and all the shoulder rhythms, the RMSE are all greater than 5°. Among those shoulder rhythms, the scapula lateral/medial rotation has the strongest correlation between the predicted and the measured angles, while the other thoracoclavicular and thoracoscapular bone orientation angles only showed a weak to moderate correlation. Since the regression-based shoulder rhythm has been adopted for shoulder biomechanical models to estimate shoulder muscle activities and structure loads, there needs to be further investigation on how the predicted error from the shoulder rhythm affects the output of the biomechanical model. 相似文献

In biomechanical modeling of the shoulder, it is important to know the orientation of each bone in the shoulder girdle when estimating the loads on each musculoskeletal element. However, because of the soft tissue overlying the bones, it is difficult to accurately derive the orientation of the clavicle and scapula using surface markers during dynamic movement. The purpose of this study is to develop two regression models which predict the orientation of the clavicle and the scapula. The first regression model uses humerus orientation and individual factors such as age, gender, and anthropometry data as the predictors. The second regression model includes only the humerus orientation as the predictor. Thirty-eight participants performed 118 static postures covering the volume of the right hand reach. The orientation of the thorax, clavicle, scapula and humerus were measured with a motion tracking system. Regression analysis was performed on the Euler angles decomposed from the orientation of each bone from 26 randomly selected participants. The regression models were then validated with the remaining 12 participants. The results indicate that for the first model, the r2 of the predicted orientation of the clavicle and the scapula ranged between 0.31 and 0.65, and the RMSE obtained from the validation dataset ranged from 6.92° to 10.39°. For the second model, the r2 ranged between 0.19 and 0.57, and the RMSE obtained from the validation dataset ranged from 6.62° and 11.13°. The derived regression-based shoulder rhythm could be useful in future biomechanical modeling of the shoulder. 相似文献

Trauma among the Shanidar Neandertals 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Four of the adult Neandertals from Shanidar Cave, Iraq, Shanidar 1, 3, 4, and 5, show evidence of antemortem trauma. Shanidar 1 sustained injuries to the right frontal squama, the left lateral orbit, the right humerus and right fifth metatarsal. Associated with this trauma are hypoplasia or atrophy of the right clavicle, scapula, and humerus, osteomyelitis of the right clavicle, degenerative joint disease at the right knee, ankle, and first tarsometatarsal joint, and remodeling of the left tibia. Shanidar 3 experienced trauma-related degenerative joint disease at the right talocrural and talocalcaneal joints and sustained a penetrating wound across the left ninth rib. Shanidar 4 suffered a fracture of the right seventh or eighth rib, and Shanidar 5 had a scalp wound over the left frontal. A high frequency of antemortem trauma associated with the survival of the injured individuals appears to have been characteristic of the Neandertals. 相似文献

In order to analyze shoulder joint movements, the authors use a ZEBRIS CMS-HS ultrasound-based movement analysis system. In essence, the measurement involves the determination of the spatial position of the 16 anatomical points, which are specified on the basis of the coordinates of ultrasound-based triplets positioned on the upper limb, the scapula, and the thorax; their spatial position is measured in the course of motion. Kinematic characteristics of 74 shoulder joints of 50 healthy persons were identified during elevation in the plane of the scapula. Kinematic characteristics of motion were identified by scapulothoracic, glenohumeral, and humeral elevation angles; range of angles; scapulothoracis and glenohumeral rhythm; scapulothoracic, glenohumeral, and scapuloglenoid ratios; and the relative displacement between the rotation centers of the humerus and the scapula. Motion of the humerus and the scapula relative to each other was characterized by their rotation as well as the relative displacement between the rotation centers of scapula and humerus. The biomechanical model of the shoulder joint during elevation can be described by analyzing the results of the measurements performed. 相似文献

Soft tissue artifact (STA) is the main source of error in kinematic estimation of human movements based on skin markers. Our objective was to determine the components of marker displacements that best describe STA of the shoulder and arm (i.e. clavicle, scapula and humerus). Four participants performed arm flexion and rotation, a daily-life and a sports movement. Three pins with reflective markers were inserted into the clavicle, scapula and humerus. In addition, up to seven skin markers were stuck on each segment. STA was described with a modal approach: individual marker displacements or marker-cluster (i.e. translations, rotations, homotheties and stretches) relative to the local segment coordinate system defined by markers secured to the pins. The modes were then ranked according to the percentage of total STA energy that they explained. Both individual skin marker displacements and marker-cluster geometrical transformations were task-, location-, segment- and subject-specific. However, 85% of the total STA energy was systematically explained by the rigid transformations (i.e. translations and rotations of the marker-cluster). In conclusion, large joint dislocations and limited efficiency of least squares bone pose estimators are expected for the computation of upper limb joint kinematics from skin markers. Future developments shall consider the rigid transformations of marker-clusters in the implementation of an STA model to reduce its effects on kinematics estimation. 相似文献

In this paper, we present an inverse kinematics method to determining human shoulder joint motion coupling relationship based on experimental data in the literature. This work focuses on transferring Euler-angle-based coupling equations into a relationship based on the Denavit–Hartenberg (DH) method. We use analytical inverse kinematics to achieve the transferring. For a specific posture, we can choose points on clavicle, scapula, and humerus and represent the end-effector positions based on Euler angles or DH method. For both Euler and DH systems, the end-effectors have the same Cartesian positions. Solving these equations related to end-effector positions yields DH joint angles for that posture. The new joint motion coupling relationship is obtained by polynomial and cosine fitting of the DH joint angles for all different postures. 相似文献

Shoulder motion is complex and significant research efforts have focused on measuring glenohumeral joint motion. Unfortunately, conventional motion measurement techniques are unable to measure glenohumeral joint kinematics during dynamic shoulder motion to clinically significant levels of accuracy. The purpose of this study was to validate the accuracy of a new model-based tracking technique for measuring three-dimensional, in vivo glenohumeral joint kinematics. We have developed a model-based tracking technique for accurately measuring in vivo joint motion from biplane radiographic images that tracks the position of bones based on their three-dimensional shape and texture. To validate this technique, we implanted tantalum beads into the humerus and scapula of both shoulders from three cadaver specimens and then recorded biplane radiographic images of the shoulder while manually moving each specimen's arm. The position of the humerus and scapula were measured using the model-based tracking system and with a previously validated dynamic radiostereometric analysis (RSA) technique. Accuracy was reported in terms of measurement bias, measurement precision, and overall dynamic accuracy by comparing the model-based tracking results to the dynamic RSA results. The model-based tracking technique produced results that were in excellent agreement with the RSA technique. Measurement bias ranged from -0.126 to 0.199 mm for the scapula and ranged from -0.022 to 0.079 mm for the humerus. Dynamic measurement precision was better than 0.130 mm for the scapula and 0.095 mm for the humerus. Overall dynamic accuracy indicated that rms errors in any one direction were less than 0.385 mm for the scapula and less than 0.374 mm for the humerus. These errors correspond to rotational inaccuracies of approximately 0.25 deg for the scapula and 0.47 deg for the humerus. This new model-based tracking approach represents a non-invasive technique for accurately measuring dynamic glenohumeral joint motion under in vivo conditions. The model-based technique achieves accuracy levels that far surpass all previously reported non-invasive techniques for measuring in vivo glenohumeral joint motion. This technique is supported by a rigorous validation study that provides a realistic simulation of in vivo conditions and we fully expect to achieve these levels of accuracy with in vivo human testing. Future research will use this technique to analyze shoulder motion under a variety of testing conditions and to investigate the effects of conservative and surgical treatment of rotator cuff tears on dynamic joint stability. 相似文献

Homo floresiensis and the evolution of the hominin shoulder 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

The holotype of Homo floresiensis, diminutive hominins with tiny brains living until 12,000 years ago on the island of Flores, is a partial skeleton (LB1) that includes a partial clavicle (LB1/5) and a nearly complete right humerus (LB1/50). Although the humerus appears fairly modern in most regards, it is remarkable in displaying only 110 degrees of humeral torsion, well below modern human average values. Assuming a modern human shoulder configuration, such a low degree of humeral torsion would result in a lateral set to the elbow. Such an elbow joint would function more nearly in a frontal than in a sagittal plane, and this is certainly not what anyone would have predicted for a tool-making Pleistocene hominin. We argue that Homo floresiensis probably did not have a modern human shoulder configuration: the clavicle was relatively short, and we suggest that the scapula was more protracted, resulting in a glenoid fossa that faced anteriorly rather than laterally. A posteriorly directed humeral head was therefore appropriate for maintaining a normally functioning elbow joint. Similar morphology in the Homo erectus Nariokotome boy (KNM-WT 15000) suggests that this shoulder configuration may represent a transitional stage in pectoral girdle evolution in the human lineage. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine the relative contributions of the deltoid and rotator cuff muscles to glenohumeral joint stability during arm abduction. A three-dimensional model of the upper limb was used to calculate the muscle and joint-contact forces at the shoulder for abduction in the scapular plane. The joints of the shoulder girdle-sternoclavicular joint, acromioclavicular joint, and glenohumeral joint-were each represented as an ideal three degree-of-freedom ball-and-socket joint. The articulation between the scapula and thorax was modeled using two kinematic constraints. Eighteen muscle bundles were used to represent the lines of action of 11 muscle groups spanning the glenohumeral joint. The three-dimensional positions of the clavicle, scapula, and humerus during abduction were measured using intracortical bone pins implanted into one subject. The measured bone positions were inputted into the model, and an optimization problem was solved to calculate the forces developed by the shoulder muscles for abduction in the scapular plane. The model calculations showed that the rotator cuff muscles (specifically, supraspinatus, subscapularis, and infraspinatus) by virtue of their lines of action are perfectly positioned to apply compressive load across the glenohumeral joint, and that these muscles contribute most significantly to shoulder joint stability during abduction. The middle deltoid provides most of the compressive force acting between the humeral head and the glenoid, but this muscle also creates most of the shear, and so its contribution to joint stability is less than that of any of the rotator cuff muscles. 相似文献

This article describes the growth of the anuran pectoral girdle of Rana pipiens and compares skeletal development of the shoulder to that of long bones. The pectoral girdle chondrifies as two halves, each adjacent to a developing humerus. In each, the scapula and coracoid form as single foci of condensed chondrocytes that fuse, creating a cartilaginous glenoid bridge articulating with the humerus. Based on histological sections, both the dermal clavicle and cleithrum begin to ossify at approximately the same time as the periosteum forms around the endochondral bones. The dermal and endochondral bones of the girdle form immobile joints with neighboring girdle elements; however, the cellular organization and growth pattern of the scapula and coracoid closely resemble those of a long bone. Similar to a long bone epiphysis, distal margins of both endochondral elements have zones of hyaline, stratified, and hypertrophic cartilages. As a result, fused elements of the girdle can grow without altering the glenoid articulation with the humerus. Comparisons of anuran long bone and pectoral girdle growth suggest that different bones can have similar histology and development regardless of adult morphology. 相似文献

This paper presents a novel method to explore the intrinsic morphological correlation between the bones of a shoulder joint (humerus and scapula). To model this correlation, canonical correlation analysis (CCA) is used. We also propose a technique to predict a three-dimensional (3D) bone shape from its adjoining segment at a joint based on partial least squares regression (PLS). The high dimensional 3D surface information of a bone is represented by a few variables using principal component analysis, which also captures the pattern of variability of the shapes in our datasets. Our results show that the humerus set and scapula set have highly linear morphological relationship and that the correlation information can be used as a classifier. In this study, primate shoulder bone datasets were categorised into two clusters: great apes (including humans) and monkeys. A leave one out experiment was performed to test the robustness of this prediction method. The prediction behaviour using this method shows statistically significantly better results than using the mean shape from the training set. 相似文献

In this paper the concept of a three-dimensional biomechanical model of the human shoulder is introduced. This model is used to analyze static load sharing between the muscles, the bones and the ligaments. The model consists of all shoulder structures, which means that different positions and different load situations may be analyzed using the same model. Solutions can be found for the complete range of shoulder motion. However, this article focuses only on elevation in the scapular plane and on forces in structures attached to the humerus. The intention is to expand the model in future studies to also involve the forces acting on the other shoulder bones: the scapula and the clavicle. The musculoskeletal forces in the shoulder complex are predicted utilizing the optimization technique with the sum of squared muscle stresses as an objective function. Numerical results predict that among the muscles crossing the glenohumeral joint parts of the deltoideus, the infraspinatus, the supraspinatus, the subscapularis, the pectoralis major, the coracobrachialis and the biceps are the muscles most activated during this sort of abduction. Muscle-force levels reached values of 150 N when the hand load was 1 kg. The results from the model seem to be qualitatively accurate, but it is concluded that in the future development of the model the direction of the contact force in the glenohumeral joint must be constrained. 相似文献

The development of the scapula was studied in embryonic and postnatal specimens of Monodelphis domestica and perinatal specimens of Philander opossum, Caluromys philander, and Sminthopsis virginiae using histological sections and 3D reconstructions. Additionally, macerated skeletons of postnatal M. domestica were examined. This study focused on the detachment of the scapulocoracoid from the sternum and on the acquisition of a supraspinous fossa, a supraspinatus muscle, and a scapular spine, all these events associated with the origin of the therian shoulder girdle. In none of the specimens is there a continuity of the cartilaginous scapulocoracoid with the sternum, even though the structures are in close proximity, especially in S. virginiae. At birth, the first rib laterally presents a pronounced boss that probably contacts the humerus during certain movements. Only the acromial portion of the scapular spine, which originates from the anterior margin of the scapular blade, is preformed in cartilage. The other portion is formed by appositional bone ("Zuwachsknochen"), which expands from the perichondral ossification of the scapula into an intermuscular aponeurosis between the supra- and infraspinous muscles. This intermuscular aponeurosis inserts more or less in the middle of the lateral surface of the developing scapula. Thus, the floor of the supraspinous fossa is present from the beginning of scapular development, simultaneously with the infraspinous fossa. The homology of the therian spine with the anterior border of the sauropsid and monotreme scapula is questioned. We consider the dorsal portion (as opposed to the ventral or acromial portion) of the scapular spine a neomorphic structure of therian mammals. 相似文献

To analyze differences between apes and monkeys and the affinities of man, we have studied the shoulder girdle of 327 specimens of anthropoid primates. The scapula, clavicle and humerus are viewed as an integrated functional complex on the basis of 18 measurements. Several varieties of multivariate analysis show that man is clearly closer to other hominoids than to the included monkey taxa (whether terrestrial or arboreal, Old World or New World). The marked shoulder differences between apes and monkeys and similarities between apes and man correlate with the muscular anatomy, which in hominoids allows the motions involved in their locomotion and feeding behavior. As the hominid-pongid correspondence in shoulder morphology is especially detailed regarding the functionally important joint surfaces, it is consistent with a fairly recent period of common ancestry and behavior. No hypothetical evolutionary pathway or ancestral form of the human shoulder need look far beyond the model afforded by extant pongids. In contrast with previous studies on the primate shoulder, these results agree with information accumulating from other systems—comparative anatomy, primate behavior, and molecular biology — in suggesting very close relationship between man and extant African pongids. 相似文献

By birth in the acromioclavicular joint the acromial end of the clavicle is osseous, and the acromion of the scapula is cartilaginous. The most intensive formation of the relief and configuration of the articular surfaces of the joint occurs from 1 to 3 years of age. In mature persons the form of the articular surface of the acromial end of the clavicle is often oval and that of the acromion of the scapula--ellipsoid. In newborns the areas of the articular surfaces are nearly equal. The area of the articular surface of the acromial end of the clavicle is significantly more than that of the acromion of the scapula during the periods from 1 to 3, from 13 to 17 and from 21 to 30 years of age. The articular cleft is revealed in the roentgenograms by 17 years of age, when synostosis process of the acromion of the scapula is completed. The thickness of the articular cartilage at different poles of the articular surfaces from birth up to 70 years of age is not equal and therefore it is possible to judge about nonequivalent functional loading on different areas of the articular cartilage. The articular cartilage of the acromial end of the clavicle from birth to 16 years of age is hyaline, after 17 years of age, they acquire the structure of the fibrous cartilage. In the articular cartilage of the acromion of the scapula, this rearrangement is realized more slowly: its fibrous structure is revealed after 23-24 years of age. Involutional changes in the joint are revealed during the fourth decade.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Measuring the motion of the scapula and humerus with sub-millimeter levels of accuracy in six-degrees-of-freedom (6-DOF) is a challenging problem. The current methods to measure shoulder joint motion via the skin do not produce clinically significant levels of accuracy. Thus, the purpose of this study was to validate a non-invasive markerless dual fluoroscopic imaging system (DFIS) model-based tracking technique for measuring dynamic in-vivo shoulder kinematics. Our DFIS tracks the positions of bones based on their projected silhouettes to contours on recorded pairs of fluoroscopic images. For this study, we compared markerlessly tracking the bones of the scapula and humerus to track them with implanted titanium spheres using a radiostereometric analysis (RSA) while manually manipulating a cadaver specimen's arms. Additionally, we report the repeatability of the DFIS to track the scapula and humerus during dynamic shoulder motion. The difference between the markerless model-based tracking technique and the RSA was ±0.3 mm in translation and ±0.5° in rotation. Furthermore, the repeatability of the markerless DFIS model-based tracking technique for the scapula and humerus was ±0.2 mm and ±0.4°, respectively. The model-based tracking technique achieves an accuracy that is similar to an invasive RSA tracking technique and is highly suited for non-invasively studying the in-vivo motion of the shoulder. This technique could be used to investigate the scapular and humeral biomechanics in both healthy individuals and in patients with various pathologies under a variety of dynamic shoulder motions encountered during the activities of daily living. 相似文献

Retinoic acid has long been used to induce limb reductions defects in experimental animal studies. No limb malformations, however, have been reported among malformed retinoic acid-exposed human fetuses from case reports or epidemiologic studies. We report a child and a fetus with limb reduction malformations following maternal use of isotretinoin (13-cis-retinoic acid) during the first trimester of pregnancy. The child had a unilaterally absent clavicle and nearly absent scapula, with a short humerus and short, synostotic forearm bones. He also had ventriculomegaly and developmental delay, minor dysmorphic facial features, and a short sternum with a sterno-umbilical raphe. The fetus had a unilaterally absent thumb with normal proximal bony structures. Other findings included hydrocephalus, craniofacial anomalies, thymic agenesis, supracristal ventricular septal defect, single umbilical artery, anal and vaginal atresia, and urethral agenesis with dysplastic, multicystic kidneys. Although the limb malformations were quite dissimilar, a number of anomalies that are frequently found among isotretinoin-exposed fetuses/infants were present in both cases. This increases the probability that retinoic acid caused these limb defects, but a causal association cannot be conclusively drawn on the basis of these two retrospective case reports. 相似文献
