Neuropeptides in tendinopathy [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2009
Overuse tendinopathy remains a major clinical burden for sports medicine and general practitioners. Recent studies have highlighted the role of sensory and autonomic nerves in generating or perpetuating the symptoms and tissue abnormalities associated with tendinopathy.

Extracellular matrix and proteolysis: mechanisms driving irreversible changes and shaping cell behavior

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Irreversible ECM proteolysis by remodeling enzymes shapes development, homeostasis, and disease. ECM‐degrading proteases display cell specificity and are governed by shared mechanisms, exhibiting functional redundancy in generating matrikines, growth factors, and cytokines.

Prevalence and incidence rate of lower-extremity tendinopathies in a Danish general practice: a registry-based study

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background Tendinopathies of the lower extremity (e.g. Achilles, patellar, and plantar heel pain) are common in both general and sporting populations. However, the prevalence and incidence in Danish general practice is unknown.

Plantaris excision reduces pain in Mid-portion Achilles tendinopathy even in the absence of plantaris tendinosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background It is becoming increasingly apparent that the plantaris can contribute to symptoms in at least a subset of patients with mid-portion Achilles tendinopathy. However the nature of its involvement remains unclear.

Tendinopathy in Sport [PDF]

open access: yesSports Health: A Multidisciplinary Approach, 2012
Context: Tendinopathy is increasing in prevalence and accounts for a substantial part of all sports injuries and occupational disorders. Despite the magnitude of the disorder, high-quality scientific data on etiology and available treatments have been limited.

An investigation of the functional significance of the pyramidalis muscle using shear wave elastography

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pyramidalis (Py) is a small triangular‐shaped anterior abdominal wall muscle, the function of which remains uncertain. We used shear wave elastography to test the hypothesis that Py contributes to stiffness of the linea alba. Our results indicate that Py contraction results in a significant increase in LA stiffness, supporting the previously ...

Oral Mucositis in Oncopediatric Patients: MTX and MMP‐1, MMP‐8, MMP‐13 Gene Polymorphisms

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study investigates the association between single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the MMP‐1, MMP‐8, and MMP‐13 genes and the risk of oral mucositis development in paediatric patients with leukaemia and lymphoma who are undergoing methotrexate (MTX) treatment.
