Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...

Increased contralateral dynamic valgus in female athletes following ACL reconstruction
Abstract Purpose Female athletes have a higher risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, which has been associated with neuromuscular deficits and dynamic valgus, while contralateral risk profiles after ACL reconstruction remain insufficiently characterized.

Bicomponent Mapping of Cortical Bone Using a New Interleaved UTE Imaging Sequence
ABSTRACT Purpose Ultrashort echo time (UTE) MRI enables direct imaging of cortical bone and quantification of its water compartments via bicomponent T2* modeling. However, conventional approaches require multiple separate dual‐echo scans due to limitations in gradient power. This approach is prone to inter‐scan inconsistencies such as motion and signal

Abstract Background The effectiveness of platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) injections in chronic tendinopathies remains debated. Although the product's characteristics play a role, the impact of postinjection recommendations remains poorly investigated. Objective To establish principles and guidelines for post‐PRP injection rehabilitation and return to ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Ultrasound is a sensitive and specific tool for identifying structural changes in tendinopathy and fasciopathy. While prior studies have assessed inter‐rater reliability using static images with mixed results, none have examined reliability using retrospective sonographic video review.
