DOI: 10.1007/s00264-021-05066-6
Abstract: The rotator cuff (RC) muscles contribute to dynamic stability and rotational actions of the glenohumeral joint. Moment arm can be used to demonstrate the potential work a muscle contributes to a musculoskeletal joint rotation. This… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2018.06.020
Abstract: Geometric and tendon excursion methods have both been used extensively for estimating plantarflexor muscle moment arm in vivo. Geometric measures often utilize magnetic resonance imaging, which can be costly and impractical for many investigations. Estimating… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2018.11.066
Abstract: BACKGROUND Irreparable posterosuperior rotator cuff tears cause pain and impaired shoulder function. Latissimus dorsi (LD) transfer has been proven to improve shoulder function, but lower trapezius (LT) transfer has recently been proposed as an alternative.… read more here.

Fossorial mammals emphasise the forelimb muscle moment arms used for digging: New indices for reconstruction of the digging ability and behaviours in extinct taxa

DOI: 10.1111/joa.13815
Abstract: Among fossorial mammals, forelimbs are major digging apparatuses for dwelling, sheltering and foraging underground. Forelimb‐diggers have independently evolved in many lineages of mammals; thus, the method of digging with forelimbs varies by taxon. Therefore, the… read more here.

Infraspinatus Muscle Fiber Moment Arms During Abduction: A Biomechanical Comparison of Values for Intact Rotator Cuff, Supraspinatus Tear, Superior Capsular Reconstruction, and Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine"
DOI: 10.1177/23259671221098378
Abstract: Background: Lines of action of the superior, middle, and inferior infraspinatus muscle fibers work together to produce moment arms that change throughout abduction in an intact shoulder, after a supraspinatus tear, and after superior capsular… read more here.

DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.4059752
Abstract: Most dynamic musculoskeletal models define the subtalar joint (STJ) as a one degree of freedom (DOF) hinge with a tri-planar axis. The orientation of this axis of rotation is often determined as a combination of… read more here.
