The equine patellar ligaments and the infrapatellar fat pad – a microanatomical study

BMC Veterinary Research, 2023
Background Interpretation of patellar ligament (PL) ultrasonography may be difficult, as hypoechoic or heterogenous echogenicity are common findings.

Novel Biomaterial‐Based Synovial Fluid Analysis Reveals Protective microRNA Signatures in a Mouse Model of Acute Synovitis‐Driven Osteoarthritis

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 12, 30 June 2026.
We successfully established a novel method for collecting synovial fluid in the murine knee joint using Tetra‐slime. Acute synovitis led to secondary cartilage degeneration in the early stage of OA, which might be attributed to the increase of MMP‐3, TNF‐α, and M1 macrophage activation in the synovium.

A novel infrapatellar approach of ultrasound-guided intra-articular injection of the knee from both lateral and medial side: a case series

Therapeutic Advances in Musculoskeletal Disease, 2023
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is common. Ultrasound-guided intra-articular injection (UGIAI) using the superolateral approach is currently the gold standard for treating knee OA, but it is not 100% accurate, especially in patients with no knee effusion ...

Anti‐inflammatory and osteogenic effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation in knee osteoarthritis rats via the regulation of the intestinal microbiota

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 9, Issue 6, Page 1217-1234, June 2026.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) improved knee osteoarthritis (KOA) in rats by regulating interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β), IL‐6, and IL‐8 expressions and the bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP‐2)/transforming growth factor β (TGF‐β) signaling pathway.

Smart Nanodelivery Systems for Immunometabolic Modulation in Osteoarthritis

Exploration, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
Smart nanodelivery systems deliver therapeutic payloads across the cartilage matrix to ensure their sustained accumulation within chondrocytes at sites of injury. By targeting specific molecular targets and signaling pathways, these platforms modulate the pathological synovium‐cartilage axis to restore immunometabolic homeostasis and drive tissue ...

The biphasic role of the infrapatellar fat pad in osteoarthritis

Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive degenerative disease resulting in joint deterioration. It is a whole organ disease characterized by cartilage degeneration and varying degrees of synovitis, involving pathological changes in all joint tissues, such as cartilage, subchondral bone, ligaments, meniscus, synovium, and infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP).

Broken-fat pad sign: a characteristic radiographic finding to distinguish between knee rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis

Insights into Imaging
Objectives Diagnostic imaging plays an important role in the pre-treatment workup of knee osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Herein, we identified a useful MRI sign of infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) to improve diagnosis.

Ultrasound‐Guided Peripheral Nerve Blocks for Percutaneous Treatments of Common Tendinopathies

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 1139-1161, June 2026.
Objectives Ultrasound‐guided percutaneous needle fenestration (UPNF) and percutaneous needle tenotomy (UPNT) are minimally invasive procedures commonly used to treat chronic tendinopathies. However, these techniques can be painful, potentially limiting patient tolerance, satisfaction, and procedural feasibility. Although local anesthetics (LAs) provide

Arthroscopic Resection of Infrapatellar Fat Pad Impingement Syndrome: Long-Term Clinical Results at Minimum 10-Year Follow-Up

Medicina
Background and Objectives: Infrapatellar fat pad impingement syndrome (IFPIS) is a relatively underdiagnosed cause of anterior knee pain. While conservative management is the initial approach, some patients require surgical intervention. This study aimed
