Similar dynamic tibiofemoral movements during jump‐landing and walking but distinct hamstrings strength across ACL reconstruction autograft types at mid‐term follow‐up

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Dynamic tibiofemoral movements following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with quadriceps tendon (QT) autografts have not yet been compared to other autografts. We aimed to compare dynamic anterior tibial translation (ATTd) and internal tibial rotation (ITRd) during jump‐landing and walking among patients with QT, bone ...

Impact of hamstring versus quadriceps tendon graft on thigh muscle strength and surface electromyography activity after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare quadriceps tendon (QT) and hamstring tendon (HT) autografts regarding isometric thigh muscle strength, surface electromyography (sEMG) activity and clinical outcomes following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).

Stretch‐shortening cycle force–time and power–time waveform analysis indicates limitations of the contralateral limb benchmark in athletes with ACL injury

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Unilateral countermovement jump (CMJsingle) testing is commonly used after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) to assess stretch‐shortening cycle (SSC) function and return‐to‐sport readiness. However, the impact of ACLR on contralateral limb SSC function is poorly understood, which may impact the utility of the ...

Reachable Workspace as a Clinical Outcome for Upper Extremity Function: A Narrative Review

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Motion sensing technology can be utilized to capture detailed upper extremity (UE) motion to reconstruct an individual's three‐dimensional (3D) reachable workspace (RWS). The RWS can be quantified as relative surface area (RSA), providing an innovative surrogate measure to assess UE mobility and function.

Outpatient preoperative parenteral nutrition in malnourished surgical patients: A feasibility study (the OPPORTUNITY study)

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Preoperative parenteral nutrition (PN) improves outcomes in malnourished surgical patients. Traditionally, this requires hospital admission, increasing length of stay and costs—challenges worsened by limited hospital bed availability. Outpatient PN may offer a feasible alternative.
