Calcific tendonitis of the quadriceps tendon [PDF]
Journal of Surgical Case Reports, 2018 A 61-year-old woman presented with chronic anterior pain and stiffness in the distal left thigh. Examination revealed swelling and tenderness immediately proximal to the patella. Radiographs showed opacities in the distal anterior thigh whilst MRI identified enlargement of the distal quadriceps tendon with splayed fibres separated by solid ...

Tendinopathy—from basic science to treatment [PDF]
, 2008 Chronic tendon pathology (tendinopathy), although common, is difficult to treat. Tendons possess a highly organized fibrillar matrix, consisting of type I collagen and various 'minor' collagens, proteoglycans and glycoproteins.

Tendon proper- and peritenon-derived progenitor cells have unique tenogenic properties. [PDF]
, 2014 IntroductionMultipotent progenitor populations exist within the tendon proper and peritenon of the Achilles tendon. Progenitor populations derived from the tendon proper and peritenon are enriched with distinct cell types that are distinguished by ...

Structural and molecular characteristics of axons in the long head of the biceps tendon [PDF]
, 2020 The innervation of the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) is not sufficiently documented. This is a drawback since pathologies of the LHBT are a major source of shoulder pain.

JBJS Essential Surgical Techniques, 2018 Although triceps tendon ruptures can result from a traumatic incident, chronic overuse causing degenerative changes to the insertion and leading to a complete or partial rupture is more common. In our practice, we have found that anabolic steroid abuse by weightlifters is the most common predisposing factor. The initial diagnosis is often missed.

A three-dimensional finite element model of maximal grip loading in the human wrist [PDF]
, 2009 The aim of this work was to create an anatomically accurate three-dimensional finite element model of the wrist, applying subject-specific loading and quantifying the internal load transfer through the joint during maximal grip.

Exploratory Analysis of ELP1 Expression in Whole Blood From Patients With Familial Dysautonomia
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a hereditary neurodevelopmental disorder caused by aberrant splicing of the ELP1 gene, leading to a tissue‐specific reduction in ELP1 protein expression. Preclinical models indicate that increasing ELP1 levels can mitigate disease manifestations.

Thermo-mechanical compatibility of CFRP versus steel reinforcement for concrete at high temperature [PDF]
, 2014 Optimization of the design of concrete structures has become a driver for the use of nonconventional reinforcing materials. One example of this is the emerging use of non-corrosive, highstrength, and lightweight carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP ...
