Several flat tendon graft types are viable options for flat superficial medial collateral ligament reconstructions—A biomechanical analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Flat superficial medial collateral ligament (sMCL) reconstruction helps restore knee kinematics in medial instability, but recommendations on grafts that best mimic the sMCL's biomechanical properties are missing. This study aimed to compare the biomechanical properties of flat grafts to the native sMCL, hypothesizing that (1) flat ...

Three in every four systematic reviews and meta‐analyses on concomitant anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and anterolateral complex procedures present at least one type of spin in the abstract

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Spin is a form of bias that misrepresents research findings, potentially influencing clinical decisions and patient care. This meta‐research study evaluates the prevalence and types of spin in abstracts of systematic reviews and meta‐analyses comparing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with and without lateral extra ...
