Spinal Facet Joint Biomechanics and Mechanotransduction in Normal, Injury and Degenerative

The facet joint is a crucial anatomic region of the spine owing to its biomechanical role in facilitating articulation of the vertebrae of the spinal column. It is a diarthrodial joint with opposing articular cartilage surfaces that provide a low friction environment and a ligamentous capsule that encloses the joint space. Together with the disc, the bilateral facet joints transfer loads and guide and constrain motions in the spine due to their geometry and mechanical function. Although a great deal of research has focused on defining the biomechanics of the spine and the form and function of the disc, the facet joint has only recently become the focus of experimental, computational and clinical studies. This mechanical behavior ensures the normal health and function of the spine during physiologic loading but can also lead to its dysfunction when the tissues of the facet joint are altered either by injury, degeneration or as a result of surgical modification of the spine. The anatomical, biomechanical and physiological characteristics of the facet joints in the cervical and lumbar spines have become the focus of increased attention recently with the advent of surgical procedures of the spine, such as disc repair and replacement, which may impact facet responses. Accordingly, this review summarizes the relevant anatomy and biomechanics of the facet joint and the individual tissues that comprise it. In order to better understand the physiological implications of tissue loading in all conditions, a review of mechanotransduction pathways in the cartilage, ligament and bone is also presented ranging from the tissue-level scale to cellular modifications. With this context, experimental studies are summarized as they relate to the most common modifications that alter the biomechanics and health of the spine—injury and degeneration. In addition, many computational and finite element models have been developed that enable more-detailed and specific investigations of the facet joint and its tissues than are provided by experimental approaches and also that expand their utility for the field of biomechanics. These are also reviewed to provide a more complete summary of the current knowledge of facet joint mechanics. Overall, the goal of this review is to present a comprehensive review of the breadth and depth of knowledge regarding the mechanical and adaptive responses of the facet joint and its tissues across a variety of relevant size scales.

The blowup illustrates the different zones of the articular cartilage layer with the collagen fibers and chondrocytes orientations through its depth. A cut through of the facet joint (A-A) is also drawn to show the elliptically-shaped inter-articular surfaces with the cartilage surface on the inferior facet, the synovium, and meniscoids.

Traumaplant Cream 1.76 oz 35% Comfrey Cream ( Made in Germany)



Traumaplant The Healing Power of Trauma Comfrey: Soothe Injuries, Wounds, Back, Joint and Muscle Pain Traumaplant is the effective pain ointment with additional repair effect . It contains the high-dose active ingredient from the specially selected medicinal plant "Trauma Comfrey". Through this special ingredient complex with allantoin and its tissue- regenerating and wound-healing properties Traumaplant® acts not only strong analgesic, but also promotes the healing of tissue 1 and wounds 1 . The percutaneous antitraumatic for bruises and sprains, joint and muscle pain relieves pain, reduces swelling and inflammation additional wound healing, for open and blunt injuries highly concentrated active ingredient from medical comfrey (Trauma-Comfrey) Composition Clinical Trials Comfrey (Symphytum) is traditionally known as one of the most valuable medicinal plants and was already used in ancient times due to its antiinflammatory and wound-healing effects for fractures, sprains, bruises and even burns. Its antiphlogistic, pain relieving, anti-exudative and wound-healing effects have meanwhile been confirmed by numerous scientific evidence. Composition Symphytum concentrate (active ingredient)10.0 g (ex herba symphyti recente 25.0 g) Emulsion cream base ad 100.0 g The active components in Traumaplant® The active ingredients contained in Traumaplant® cream are taken from freshly harvested symphytum blossoms and leaves, a specially cultivated medical comfrey (Symphytum x uplandicum NYMAN) - “Trauma-Comfrey”. By means of a particulary careful process, the pharmacologically active, high dosage and standardized ingredients in Traumaplant® are isolated from the freshly pressed plant sap. Choline, rosmarinic acid derivates and allantoin provide the antiphlogistic, antiexudative and wound-healing effects. In intermediary metabolism, choline is the central building block for various biosynthetic processes and achieves vasodilatation through the parasympathetic nerve endings and therefore, improves perfusion in the inflamed tissue. Inflammatory exudates and metabolic products are removed. Acting as a vasoactive substance with capillary membrane-sealing properties, choline is the most important anti-exudative ingredient among the active components in Traumaplant®. Besides anti-exudative properties, rosmarinic acid derivates possesses an excellent antiphlogistic effect and inhibits the formation of inflammation mediators. Allantoin - an active component in Traumaplant® - stimulates cell proliferation and promotes regeneration of damaged tissue. It is, therefore, responsible for the effects which promote granulation and the wound-healing action of Traumaplant® cream. Traumaplant® - the percutaneous antitraumatic The various pharmacological properties of the ingredients in Traumaplant® antiphlogistic anti-exudative wound healing analgetic are responsible for the extensive and reliable effects of this antitraumatic medication in cases of painful diseases of joints, sports injuries, sprains, bruises, slow-healing wounds and inflammatory symptoms associated with disorders of the muscles, tendons and joints. The emulsion system of the cream base has been highly developed from both a galenical and cosmetic point of view. Traumaplant® acts directly on superficial wounds and, after percutaneous absorption, on deeper lying injuries - especially in cases of deeper inflammations and exudates resulting from blunt injuries. Traumaplant® provides topical treatment without systemic side effects. Successful treatment using Traumaplant® provides rapid decrease in swelling and inflammation pain relief reduces feeling of tension additional wound healing thus, Traumaplant® is reliable and effective in cases of both open and blunt injuries. Indications: Bruises and sprains (sports and accidental injuries), joint and muscle pain, slow healing wounds. Application and Dosage: For external applicaton. If not otherwise instructed, the cream should be applied up to several times daily to the afflicted region. Especially suitable for cream bandages. Contra-Indications: No contra-indications are known. Traumaplant® is free of problematic pyrrolicidine alcaloides (detection limit 0,1 ppm, officially fixed safety limit 10 mg pyrrolicidine alcaloides / day) Side effects: In rare cases erythema (reddening of the skin) may occur, especially in patients with extremely sensitive skin or with an allergic tendency to a component of Traumaplant® cream. Interaction with other drugs: No interactions with other drugs are known.
