Medial gastrocnemius muscle remodeling correlates with reduced plantar flexor kinetics fourteen weeks following Achilles tendon rupture.

Journal of applied physiology, 2019
Deficits in plantar flexor kinetics are associated with poor outcomes in patients following Achilles tendon rupture. In this longitudinal study, we analyzed the fascicle length and pennation angle of the medial gastrocnemius muscle and the length of the ...

Architecture of lower leg muscles in children: Reference curves and potential mechanisms of growth

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Muscle architecture (physiological cross‐sectional area, fascicle lengths and pennation angle) was measured from multimodal MRI scans of the lower legs of 197 children aged ≤15 years. We showed that lower leg muscle volumes (product of PCSA and fascicle length) increase primarily through increases in PCSA (transverse growth) rather than increases in ...

Do plantar calcaneal spurs make the plantar aponeurosis enthesis stronger? A biomechanical analysis

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Novel testing set up for determining enthesial avulsion parameters. Donor calcanei were dissected to isolate the central band of the plantar fascia, and mounted in a custom 3D‐printed rig (Fig A, B, C) for uniaxial tensile testing of the plantar fascia enthesis (Fig D). This study demonstrated no significant differences in the avulsion parameters, Fmax

Fatal Pulmonary Embolism following Achilles Tendon Repair: A Case Report and a Review of the Literature

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2013
Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is a significant source of morbidity in orthopaedic surgery. It can progress to a pulmonary embolism, a significant source of mortality.

Retention of critical platelet hemostatic functions of amotosalen‐UVA pathogen‐reduced cryoprecipitated fibrinogen complex

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cryoprecipitate Anti‐Haemophilic Factor (CRYO‐AHF) is enriched for fibrinogen, VWF, FVIII, FXIII and fibronectin, but has short post‐thaw expiration due to risk of transfusion‐transmitted infection (TTI) limiting availability for rapid treatment.

Gastrocnemius fascicles are shorter and more pennate throughout the first month following acute Achilles tendon rupture

PeerJ, 2019
The purpose of this study was to characterize the short-term effects of Achilles tendon ruptures on medial gastrocnemius. We hypothesized that the fascicles of the medial gastrocnemius muscle of the injured Achilles tendon would be shorter and more ...

Effect of artificial gravity on calcaneal bone marrow adipose tissue and mineral content in female and male participants in 60 days of bed rest

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modulation of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) with prolonged inactivity was reported in haemopoietic but not in non‐haemopoietic bones. This prospective randomized controlled trial submitted 16 men and 8 women to 60 days of 6° head‐down‐tilt bed rest.
