“…Further enhancements in wireless communication and machine learning are expected to facilitate their application in musculoskeletal radiology, skeletal trauma, orthopedics, and physical and rehabilitation medicine. [213,214] In conclusion, musculoskeletal electronics represent an innovative and promising frontier in research, yet substantial progress is necessary to realize goals such as implantable prostheses, cost-effective commercial diagnostic apparatus, and sophisticated human-machine interactive devices. Further development should focus on materials and device engineering to achieve balanced mechanical properties, superior biocompatibility, versatile optoelectronic functionalities, and innovative device architectures.…”

The musculoskeletal system, constituting the largest human physiological system, plays a critical role in providing structural support to the body, facilitating intricate movements, and safeguarding internal organs. By virtue of advancements in revolutionized materials and devices, particularly in the realms of motion capture, health monitoring, and postoperative rehabilitation, “musculoskeletal electronics” has actually emerged as an infancy area, but has not yet been explicitly proposed. In this review, we attempt to elucidate the concept of musculoskeletal electronics, and summarize the evolution history, representative progress and key strategies of the involved materials and state‐of‐the‐art devices. Therefore, we first introduce the fundamentals of musculoskeletal electronics and key functionality categories. Subsequently, we present recent advances in musculoskeletal electronics from the perspectives of “in‐vitro” to “in‐vivo” signal detection, interactive modulation, and therapeutic interventions for healing and recovery. Additionally, we propose nine strategies avenues for the development of advanced musculoskeletal electronic materials and devices. Finally, concise summaries and perspectives are proposed to highlight the directions that deserve focused attention in this booming field.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved

“…Currrently, evidence for the use of heat in treating KOA is limited. However, cold application for KOA has been shown to decrease pain, increase joint range, improve the knee's functional capacity, and increase quality of life [15,16]. In a study on 100 patients with bilateral KOA treated with short-wave diathermy, the patients exhibited signi cant decreases in the VAS and Lequesne index scores and better muscle strength compared to patients in the control group [17].…”

Background: Different treatments with varying clinical efficacies have been applied to treat knee osteoarthritis (KOA). This study observes the effectiveness of deep hyperthermia combined with dynamic traction in KOA treatment. Methods: Deep hyperthermia and dynamic traction was administered to 60 patients with KOA. The pretreatment and 20- and 40-day post-treatment visual analog scale (VAS) and Lysholm score, knee joint cavity effusion, synovium thickness, and synovial blood flow signal (by high-frequency ultrasound) of the patients were recorded. The pretreatment and 20- and 40-day post-treatment Lysholm scores were 47.17 ± 5.07, 63.22 ± 3.44, and 81.98 ± 3.30 (P < 0.001), respectively. Results: The pretreatment and 20- and 40-day post-treatment VAS scores were 5.67 ± 0.91, 2.92 ± 0.81, and 0.60 ± 0.72 (P < 0.001), respectively. The pretreatment and 20- and 40-day post-treatment articular effusion was 5.41 ± 0.46 mm, 4.34 ± 0.34 mm, and 2.32 ± 0.32 mm (P < 0.001), respectively. The pretreatment and 20- and 40-day post-treatment synovial thickness was 3.44 ± 0.31 mm, 2.79 ± 0.15 mm, and 2.32 ± 0.32 mm (P < 0.001), respectively. The pretreatment and 20- and 40-day post-treatment grades of synovial blood flow signal exhibited a significant difference (P < 0.001). Conclusion: Deep hyperthermia combined with dynamic traction can significantly improve the clinical symptoms and pain degree in KOA, reduce joint cavity effusion, synovium thickness, and internal blood flow, and the effect improves with time. The changes in soft tissues observed by high-frequency ultrasound are reliable and consistent with clinical signs.
