Ultrasound‐Guided Peripheral Nerve Blocks for Percutaneous Treatments of Common Tendinopathies

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 1139-1161, June 2026.
Objectives Ultrasound‐guided percutaneous needle fenestration (UPNF) and percutaneous needle tenotomy (UPNT) are minimally invasive procedures commonly used to treat chronic tendinopathies. However, these techniques can be painful, potentially limiting patient tolerance, satisfaction, and procedural feasibility. Although local anesthetics (LAs) provide

Looking Under the Hood of Elite Rowers: Skeletal Muscle Determinants of Rowing Performance

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT We aimed to identify the physiological and muscle characteristics associated with mean power output in the final stage of a rowing incremental test in elite rowers. Twenty‐two national level rowers (n = 9 female) completed the following assessments (i) a 7‐stage incremental rowing ergometer test to determine V̇O2peak, maximal muscle ...

Medial parapatellar surgical approach leads to greater loss of postural sway complexity compared to mid‐vastus approach in women undergoing total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 1700-1712, May 2026.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with acute postoperative effects that increase the risk of falls. These effects differ between the medial parapatellar (PP) and mid‐vastus (MV) surgical techniques but have not been evaluated in terms of postural sway complexity.

Personalized alignment in total knee arthroplasty reduces patellar tilt: A retrospective study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 1766-1775, May 2026.
Abstract Purpose Patellofemoral kinematics is crucial for patient satisfaction following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). A postoperative patellar tilt greater than 5° has been associated with inferior clinical outcomes. While a femoral component external rotation beyond 3° is generally protective against patellar tilt, personalized alignment may not ...
