Reduced Muscle Strength Can Alter the Impact of Gait Modifications on Knee Cartilage Mechanics

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Muscle strength can substantially influence knee joint loading, stability, and cartilage biomechanics, all of which are important factors in the onset and progression of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Noninvasive rehabilitation methods, such as gait modifications, are suggested to effectively alter knee joint loading, potentially helping to ...

The uncrossed-doubled patellar tendon: A novel imaging finding

Radiology Case Reports, 2019
A spectrum of anatomic variants of the conventional single patellar tendon have been described however a double patellar tendon is a highly rare finding, which has only been described once before where a cross-over tendon morphology was illustrated.

Estrogen and Progesterone Exhibit Distinct Yet Coordinated Roles in the Regulation of Tendon Extracellular Matrix Remodeling

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is required for the proper healing, strengthening, and maintenance of tendon tissue. There are well‐documented sex differences in tendon injury rates and healing outcomes, often attributed to either innate differences in tissue structure and resident cell signaling or the influence of sex hormones ...

Altered Achilles Tendon Morphology in Individuals With Chronic Post-Stroke Hemiparesis: A Case Report

, 2020
Background: Individuals post-stroke walk slowly and with more effort, which puts them at higher risks for falls. The slow walking speed results from insufficient propulsive forces generated by the paretic leg.

No difference in osteoarthritis, but less graft failures after 5 years, comparing anatomic double‐bundle to anatomic single‐bundle ACL reconstruction

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence of knee osteoarthritis (OA) between the anatomic single‐bundle (SB) and anatomic double‐bundle (DB) anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction technique after 5‐year follow‐up (FU).

Repair of Acute Patellar Tendon Rupture Using an Internal Brace Technique

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2021
Acute patellar tendon rupture is a serious injury, resulting in the disruption of the knee extensor mechanism. Many authors recommend augmented repairs of patellar tendon ruptures to allow early active rehabilitation.

How statistically fragile are randomized controlled trials comparing quadriceps tendon autografts with hamstring or bone‐patellar tendon‐bone autografts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction?

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To determine the statistical fragility of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) which compare the use of quadriceps tendon (QT) autografts to either hamstring tendon (HT) or bone‐patellar tendon‐bone (BPTB) autografts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).
