Shevtsov M, Pitkin E, Combs S, Yudintceva N, Nazarov D, Meulen G, et al.
Nanomaterials (Basel) . 2024 Dec; 14(23). PMID: 39683264
3D-printed microporous titanium scaffolds enjoy good biointegration with the residuum's soft and bone tissues, and they promote excellent biomechanical properties in attached prostheses. Implant-associated infection, however, remains a major clinical...

Shevtsov M, Pitkin E, Combs S, Meulen G, Preucil C, Pitkin M
Nanomaterials (Basel) . 2024 Sep; 14(18). PMID: 39330641
Percutaneous implants osseointegrated into the residuum of a person with limb amputation need to provide mechanical stability and protection against infections. Although significant progress has been made in the biointegration...

Pitkin M, Park H, Frossard L, Klishko A, Prilutsky B
Mil Med . 2024 Aug; 189(Suppl 3):439-447. PMID: 39160882
Introduction: Approximately 89% of all service members with amputations do not return to duty. Restoring intuitive neural control with somatosensory sensation is a key to improving the safety and efficacy...

Pitkin M
Biomimetics (Basel) . 2023 Dec; 8(8). PMID: 38132511
The purpose of this paper is to discuss a new quantitative mechanical parameter of prosthetic feet called the Index of Anthropomorphicity (), which has the potential to be adopted as...

Park H, Klishko A, Oh K, Zhang C, Grenga G, Herrin K, et al.
Motor Control . 2022 Oct; 27(1):71-95. PMID: 36316008
Cutaneous feedback from feet is involved in regulation of muscle activity during locomotion, and the lack of this feedback results in motor deficits. We tested the hypothesis that locomotor changes...

Bohart Z, Cassidy C, Merrill D, Villani M, Villani R, Cappabianca L, et al.
Front Rehabil Sci . 2022 Jul; 3. PMID: 35891709
Enhancing the technology of bone-anchored limb prosthetics, we present a modified porcine model for developing an infection-free integration between the skin and a percutaneous bone implant. The deeply porous Skin...

Pitkin M
Mil Med . 2021 Jan; 186(Suppl 1):814-819. PMID: 33499550
Background: A new training and rehabilitation methodology called Sanomechanics® is presented based on a recent discovery of the anatomical system called Floating Skeleton System (FSS) responsible for redistributing contact pressures...

Pitkin M, Frossard L
Mil Med . 2021 Jan; 186(Suppl 1):681-687. PMID: 33499512
Introduction: Osseointegrated implants for direct skeletal attachment of transtibial prosthesis carry risks that are yet to be fully resolved, such as early loosening, mechanical failure of percutaneous and medullar parts...

Pitkin M, Cassidy C, Shevtsov M, Jarrell J, Park H, Farrell B, et al.
Mil Med . 2021 Jan; 186(Suppl 1):688-695. PMID: 33499499
Introduction: The three major unresolved problems in bone-anchored limb prosthetics are stable, infection-free integration of skin with a percutaneous bone implant, robust skeletal fixation between the implant and host bone,...
