Article Synopsis
- This systematic review analyzes existing research on inflammation's role in tendinopathy, aiming to identify a potential shared underlying cause for the condition.* -
- Out of 1,431 articles screened, 53 were included, revealing that while many studies mention inflammatory cells, they yield inconsistent results, particularly regarding the involvement of macrophages.* -
- The findings highlight that tendinopathy may involve various disease stages and differences in pathology, suggesting that while anti-inflammatory medications like NSAIDs can be helpful, they might also complicate tendon healing in the long run.*
