Genetic variations in the androgen receptor are associated with steroid concentrations and anthropometrics but not with muscle mass in healthy young men [PDF]
, 2014 OBJECTIVE: The relationship between serum testosterone (T) levels, muscle mass and muscle force in eugonadal men is incompletely understood. As polymorphisms in the androgen receptor (AR) gene cause differences in androgen sensitivity, no straightforward

An All-Arthroscopic Simple Double 360° Lasso Loop Technique for Supraopectoral Biceps Tenodesis
Arthroscopy Techniques, 2023 In many shoulder joint diseases, there is often a combination of long head biceps tendon（LHBT）pathology. Biceps pathology is one of the main causes of shoulder pain, and it is effectively managed with tenodesis.

Biceps tendon autograft augmentation for rotator cuff and instability procedures: a narrative review
EFORT Open ReviewsRotator cuff tears (RCT) and instability are the most common surgically treated shoulder pathologies. The concept of augmentation using the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) autograft was created to improve the results of surgical treatment of ...

The biceps tendon footprint [PDF]
Acta Orthopaedica, 2005 By arthroscopy, we observed a phenomenon that, according to our knowledge not previously described, we call the "biceps tendon footprint" (BTF)--an area of chondromalacia beside the bicipital groove.We studied 118 shoulder arthroscopies prospectively. We documented whether a BTF could be observed and what the main pathology associated with it was.

Biceps Tenodesis: Anatomic Tensioning [PDF]
Arthroscopy Techniques, 2017 Biceps tenodesis is a commonly employed surgical intervention for refractory symptoms related to the biceps-labral complex, those intra-articular and those within the extra-articular bicipital tunnel. While a litany of surgical techniques exists, the optimal method for ensuring an anatomic length-tension relationship during tenodesis remains elusive ...

Estimation of muscular forces from SSA smoothed sEMG signals calibrated by inverse dynamics-based physiological static optimization [PDF]
, 2016 The estimation of muscular forces is useful in several areas such as biomedical or rehabilitation engineering. As muscular forces cannot be measured in vivo non-invasively they must be estimated by using indirect measurements such as surface ...
