VO Max Improvement of 96% in a Non-Elite Recreational Athlete over 24 Months.

VO max is a measure of athletic performance and is generally considered an excellent health parameter for athletic performance testing. Various methods are used to generate such a result generally using a treadmill or cycle ergometer. Improvements have been shown through training.

The impact of harvest length and detachment of the interosseous membrane on donor-site morbidity following free fibula flap surgery-a biomechanical experimental study.

Purpose: The fibula flap has been established for orofacial reconstruction following ablative surgery. Donor-site morbidity of the lower leg may be explained by the harvest technique and particularly by detachment of the M. extensor halluces longus (EHL) and M.

The subscapularis footprint: an anatomic description of its insertion site.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe the anatomic footprint of the subscapularis tendon.

Methods: We examined 19 cadaveric shoulder specimens in this study. Dissection was carried out to the level of the subscapularis through a deltopectoral approach.

Quantifying glenoid bone loss arthroscopically in shoulder instability.

Purpose: Our goal was to establish a consistent methodology for quantifying glenoid bone loss by arthroscopic means.

Type Of Study: This study was an anatomic investigation of glenoid structure and its consistent anatomic landmarks as determined by arthroscopic means in live subjects and by direct measurement in fresh-frozen cadaver specimens.

Methods: We arthroscopically evaluated and measured the location of the bare spot of the glenoid in 56 subjects that had no evidence of instability (average age, 40 years).
