A Single‐Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Technique Using Quadrupled Semitendinosus Tendon With Tibial Double Knotless Anchor Fixation And Femoral Suspensory Fixation

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a common sports injury and has a significant effect on knee function. Its injury can seriously affect athletic ability and quality of life and may lead to complications such as secondary osteoarthritis.

Ultrasound assessment of muscle mass in response to exercise training in chronic kidney disease: a comparison with MRI

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2019
Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a catabolic condition associated with muscle wasting and dysfunction, which associates with morbidity and mortality.

Tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis regulates quadriceps muscle atrophy and fiber-type alteration in a rat model of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Tobacco Induced Diseases, 2017
Background In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), weakness and muscle mass loss of the quadriceps muscle has been demonstrated to predict survival and mortality rates of patients.

Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...

MR Imaging‐Based Biomarkers for Strength Prediction: A Statistical Shape and Architecture Modeling of Quadriceps Muscles

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Muscle mass decline, associated with strength decline, is a hallmark of aging. Yet, strength decline greatly exceeds mass decline. This indicates that aspects of muscle quality and architecture—not reflected by mass—also influence force generating capacity.

Mapping Fatty Acid Composition in the Human Knee: Short‐Term Repeatability at 3T

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Alterations in periarticular lipid composition are implicated in musculoskeletal diseases, yet short‐term reliability of MRI‐based triglyceride composition mapping in the knee is not fully established. Purpose To evaluate 1‐week repeatability of proton‐density fat fraction (PDFF) and triglyceride fatty‐acid composition—saturated ...

Microfracture for full‐thickness chondral lesions of the knee in elite athletes leads to high return‐to‐play rates

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Injuries to the knee are common in elite athletes and often involve damage to the articular cartilage. Given the high demands of elite sport, full‐thickness articular cartilage defects in the knee can be career‐limiting or threatening.

Thresholds for minimum clinically important difference, minimal important change and patient acceptable symptom state for the ACL‐RSI and the K‐SES in patients after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to calculate and provide Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) thresholds, Minimum Clinically Important Difference (MCID), and Minimal Important Change (MIC) values for the ACL‐Return to Sport after Injury (ACL‐RSI) scale and the Knee Self‐Efficacy Scale (K‐SES) in patients treated with ACL reconstruction ...
