DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Acetabular dysplasia may be the leading cause of premature osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip. However, the relationship between the altered geometry associated with dysplasia and the resulting stresses in and around the joint is poorly understood. The overall hypothesis of this study is that acetabular dysplasia causes alterations in hip joint biomechanics, which predispose the joint to cartilage degeneration. Subject-specific, three-dimensional finite element modeling techniques will be developed and validated to study hip joint biomechanics. Then, using three patient populations (normal, traditional dysplastic and retroverted dysplastic), patient-specific finite element models will be used to determine stresses in and around the hip joint during simulated walking, stair-climbing and descending stairs. Patient-specific hip joint computational models also have a number of potential longer-term uses and benefits, including patient-specific approaches to treatment, and prediction of the long-term success rate of corrective surgeries based on pre- and post-operative mechanics. The methods to be developed and validated in this research can be directly applied to quantify changes in mechanical loading due to surgical intervention, allowing us to assess the efficacy of different approaches to osteotomy on a patient-specific basis. We also envision using these techniques for longer-term prospective studies, to correlate surgical correction with changes in mechanical loading and long-term outcome. Currently, the status quo is that long-term success is measured by avoidance of a total hip arthroplasty and is not correlated with any preoperative variable other than the relatively crude measurements made on an anteroposterior radiograph. Relevance to Public Health: Many orthopaedic surgeons are unaware of multiple facets of the hip dysplasia diagnosis and their potential implications for joint degeneration. Recognizing the mechanical consequences of different and often subtle forms of dysplasia allows earlier identification of "at risk' hips so that earlier treatment can be initiated, hopefully delaying the need for total hip athroplasty. This research will immediately help to delineate the true spectrum of this three-dimensional pathology by quantifying stress transfer in the hip joint using patient specific computational models.

描述（由申请人提供）：髋臼发育不良可能是髋关节过早骨关节炎（OA）的主要原因。然而，与发育不良相关的几何形状改变与关节内和周围产生的应力之间的关系知之甚少。本研究的总体假设是髋臼发育不良导致髋关节生物力学改变，使关节易于软骨退变。将开发和验证特定受试者的三维有限元建模技术，以研究髋关节生物力学。然后，使用三种患者人群（正常、传统发育不良和后倾发育不良），将使用患者特定有限元模型来确定模拟行走、爬楼梯和下楼梯期间髋关节内和周围的应力。患者特定的髋关节计算模型也具有许多潜在的长期用途和益处，包括患者特定的治疗方法，以及基于术前和术后力学预测矫正手术的长期成功率。在本研究中开发和验证的方法可以直接应用于量化手术干预引起的机械载荷变化，使我们能够根据患者的具体情况评估不同截骨方法的疗效。我们还设想将这些技术用于长期前瞻性研究，将手术矫正与机械负荷和长期结局的变化联系起来。目前的现状是，长期成功是通过避免全髋关节置换术来衡量的，除了在前后位X线片上进行的相对粗略的测量外，与任何术前变量无关。与公共卫生的相关性：许多骨科医生不知道髋关节发育不良诊断的多个方面及其对关节退行性变的潜在影响。认识到不同的，往往是微妙的形式的发育不良的机械后果，允许早期识别“风险”髋关节，以便早期治疗可以开始，希望推迟全髋关节成形术的需要。这项研究将立即有助于通过使用患者特定的计算模型量化髋关节中的应力传递来描绘这种三维病理学的真实谱。
