Relationship of Acl Injury with Posterior Tibial Slope, Intercondylar Notch Width Ratio, Age, and Sex [PDF]

, 2018
Posterior tibial slope (PTS) has been proposed as a potential risk factor for ACL injury; however, studies that examined this relationship have provided inconclusive and sometimes contradictory results.

Correlation of Tibial Tubercle Overgrowth With Increased Posterior Tibial Slope: A Novel Radiographic Assessment

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine
Background: An elevated posterior tibial slope (PTS) is associated with an increased risk for anterior cruciate ligament and meniscal injury. Recent evidence suggests that the PTS is elevated in patients with Osgood-Schlatter disease. Purpose: To determine whether there is an association between objective measures of anterior tibial tubercle growth and

Adipose‐derived small extracellular vesicles exacerbate microvascular dysfunction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction via mmu‐miR‐582‐3p‐mediated Rap1b suppression

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This study reveals that small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) from visceral fat compromise coronary microcirculation in a mouse model of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The SGLT2 inhibitor canagliflozin emerges as a therapeutic strategy, improving cardiac function and endothelial health.

Prevalence and Mechanisms of Sustained Force Production in the Musculature of the Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata)

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The southern alligator lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) exhibits prolonged mate‐holding behavior. This behavior maybe be underpinned by a phenomenon known as sustained force, observed in the jaw muscles of this species, in which the muscle fails to relax between subsequent contractions.

Anterior Opening-Wedge Proximal Tibial Osteotomy for Slope Correction of Genu Recurvatum

Video Journal of Sports Medicine
Background: Symptomatic genu recurvatum is defined as greater than 5° of knee hyperextension and can be caused by osseous deformity, soft tissue laxity, or a combination. Common symptoms include pain, weakness, instability, decreased range of motion, leg

Several flat tendon graft types are viable options for flat superficial medial collateral ligament reconstructions—A biomechanical analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Flat superficial medial collateral ligament (sMCL) reconstruction helps restore knee kinematics in medial instability, but recommendations on grafts that best mimic the sMCL's biomechanical properties are missing. This study aimed to compare the biomechanical properties of flat grafts to the native sMCL, hypothesizing that (1) flat ...

Posterior tibial slope increases over time in patients undergoing revision ACL reconstruction: A long‐term radiographic follow‐up study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Increased medial posterior tibial slope (PTS) is recognized as a significant risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL‐R) failure. This study investigated radiographic changes in medial PTS over time among skeletally mature individuals undergoing revision ACL‐R and identified associated factors contributing to PTS ...

Long‐term clinical and MRI outcomes of a polyurethane meniscal scaffold implantation for the treatment of partial meniscal deficiency: A minimum 10‐year follow‐up study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess the clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results after implantation of a polyurethane scaffold for chronic segmental meniscus deficiency following partial meniscectomy in a long‐term follow‐up. Study Design Level IV, retrospective case series. Methods Thirty‐two knees received arthroscopic implantation of an Actifit®

Older age, higher BMI, female sex and meniscal repair are predictors of inferior patient‐reported outcomes 1 year after ACL reconstruction

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To identify predictors of inferior patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) 1 year after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and to examine whether these predictors differ by sex. We hypothesised that older age, female sex, and meniscectomy are associated with inferior PROs.
