The "11 to Perf Score", a Test for Professional Players Returning to Soccer After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is common among soccer players. Although there are no strict recommendations for the return to sport, more and more practitioners are having their patients perform isokinetic and even composite tests. However, these tests have not yet been shown to be predictive of re-injury, and are not specific to professional footballers.

Liposomal Formulation of an Organogold Complex Enhancing Its Activity as Antimelanoma Agent-In Vitro and In Vivo Studies.

The therapeutic management of melanoma, the most aggressive form of skin cancer, remains challenging. In the search for more effective therapeutic options, metal-based complexes are being investigated for their anticancer properties. Cisplatin was the first clinically approved platinum-based drug and, based on its success, other metals (e.

Exploring the Biological Activity of Phytocannabinoid Formulations for Skin Health Care: A Special Focus on Molecular Pathways.

Recent advancements have highlighted the potential of cannabis and its phytocannabinoids (pCBs) in skin health applications. These compounds, through their interaction with the endocannabinoid system (ECS), show promise for skin health products. Their ability to regulate inflammation, oxidative stress and cell proliferation makes them useful in addressing skin problems such as inflammation, scarring, healing, acne and aging, positioning them as valuable tools for innovative skincare solutions.

Inflammaging contributes to osteoarthritis development and human microbiota variations and vice versa: A systematic review.

Objective: To report evidence on microbiota and its relationship with inflammaging, the innate immune system and osteoarthritis (OA) in human patients.

Design: A systematic review was performed in accordance with PRISMA and following the PICO model. Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library for clinical trials and PubMed were searched.

Combination of gold nanoparticles with near-infrared light as an alternative approach for melanoma management.

Melanoma is the most aggressive type of skin cancer and recently approved drugs are often associated with resistance and significant adverse effects. Therefore, the design of more effective and safe options remains imperative. Photothermal therapy (PTT) using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) presents a promising and innovative approach.
