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.

Autoregulation in Resistance Training for Lower Limb Tendinopathy: A Potential Method for Addressing Individual Factors, Intervention Issues, and Inadequate Outcomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Musculoskeletal disorders, such as tendinopathy, are placing an increasing burden on society and health systems. Tendinopathy accounts for up to 30% of musculoskeletal disorders, with a high incidence in athletes and the general population.

Versican splice variant messenger RNA expression in normal human Achilles tendon and tendinopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Versican is the principal large proteoglycan expressed in mid-tendon, but its role in tendon pathology is unknown. Our objective was to define the expression of versican isoform splice variant messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) in normal Achilles tendons,

Increased Blood Flow and Tendon Swelling Precedes Vascular Expansion and Tissue Matrix Changes In Early Human Tendinopathy: A Potential Window for Superior Treatment Response

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Human participants with early‐ or chronic‐stage tendinopathy and healthy controls are investigated using ultrasound Doppler, 3T and 7T MRI, and tendon biopsies. Tendon swelling and hyperperfusion are evident early, while vascular growth and extracellular matrix changes are most pronounced in chronic tendinopathy. Early intervention may provide superior

Ultrasound Characterization of Patellar Tendon in Non-Elite Sport Players with Painful Patellar Tendinopathy: Absolute Values or Relative Ratios? A Pilot Study

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2020
Imaging findings in patellar tendinopathy are questioned. The aim of this pilot study was to characterize ultrasound measures, by calculating ultrasound ratio and neovascularization of the patellar tendon in non-elite sport players with unilateral ...

Advancing the Tendinopathy Triad: Comment on “Tendinopathy: The Interplay Between Mechanical Stress, Inflammation, and Vascularity”

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Building upon the integrative framework of tendinopathy proposed by Gehwolf et al.—which elegantly connects mechanical stress, inflammation, and vascularity—this commentary extends the discussion by introducing novel mechanistic insights and future research directions that move beyond the established triad. A paradigm shift is proposed ...

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.

Using Platelet-Rich Plasma to Reverse the Effects of Tendinopathy and Prevent Tendon Re-rupture after Surgery in Athletes: The Search for a Standardized Protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
30-50% of all lesions amateur and professional sports players will experience during activity are related to the tendon. Moreover, the incidence of tendinopathy, a precursor to tendon rupture, is much higher in both of these groups due to excessive ...

Chronic Morel‐Lavallée Lesion Treated With Percutaneous Ultrasonic Debridement

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This case describes the use of Tenex in a 68‐year‐old female with a 10‐year history of a Morel‐Lavallée lesion. The device uses high‐frequency ultrasonic waves that percutaneously debride dystrophic musculoskeletal calcifications. Percutaneous ultrasonic debridement is a minimally invasive intervention to be considered for managing symptoms associated ...
