Patellar tendinopathy: optimizing outcomes of exercise therapy using a comprehensive approach to tendon health

open access: yes, 2020
Gravare Silbernagel, KarinPatellar tendinopathy is chronic, painful, overuse injury to the patellar tendon. It is rampant among jumping athletes, with 11.8-14.4% of recreational and 32-45% of elite volleyball and basketball players reporting symptoms ...

Atomically precise metal cluster enzymes for pathological tissue regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of atomically precise metal cluster enzymes (MCEs) for pathological tissue regeneration. Atomically precise MCEs can modulate biological processes, such as attenuation of inflammatory responses, eradication of bacterial pathogens, regulation of angiogenesis, and promotion of cell development.

Trends in the theory that inflammation plays a causal role in tendinopathy: a systematic review and quantitative analysis of published reviews

open access: yesBMJ Open Sport & Exercise Medicine, 2018
Background/aims The contribution of inflammation to tendinopathy has been debated in the scientific literature. Several factors may contribute to this lack of clarity, including inconsistent definitions of inflammation.

Increased Upper Trapezius Muscle Stiffness in Overhead Athletes with Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Although excessive tension of the upper trapezius (UT) is thought to contribute to rotator cuff tendinopathy, no study examined UT tension in athletes with and without rotator cuff tendinopathy.

Biomaterials for modulating cellular responses of endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells: A promising avenue for tendon regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review comprehensively summarizes emerging biomaterial‐based strategies and underlying mechanisms for modulating endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs). It offers the most recent insights into TSPC physiology and potential applications of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in tendons.

Matching TGF‐β1 Activation With Stress‐Responsive Charge‐Reversal Hydrogel Microspheres for the Treatment of Osteoarthritis

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Based on the interaction between the weakly cross‐linked disulfide bonds that break under stress and charge‐reversal messenger molecules, we herein achieved nanoparticle charge reversal under stress and constructed a stress‐responsive charge‐reversal hydrogel microsphere system using microfluidic technology.

Sono‐Anatomy and Histology of the Deep Fasciae in the Upper Limb

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
The deep fascia of the upper limb represents a pivotal anatomical structure essential for effective force transmission, dynamic compartmentalization and musculoskeletal stability. Its composition (rich in type I collagen fibers) enables both mechanical resilience and functional adaptability, crucial for the upper limb's complex movements.

EPL rupture prodrome: Case series and review of the literature

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Reports
Extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendinopathy is relatively uncommon condition which is often associated with nondisplaced distal radius fractures. If left untreated, it can progress to EPL rupture.
