Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Xicheng Gu"
Xicheng Gu's recent research primarily focuses on chronic ankle instability (CAI) and its surgical interventions, exploring clinical outcomes, proprioception recovery, and neuroplasticity associated with ankle injuries.
His studies include comparisons of treatment modalities such as elastic bandages versus casts after anterior talofibular ligament repairs, with findings suggesting variability in functional recovery and return to normal activities.
Gu also investigates the effectiveness of exercises in restoring joint position sense in CAI patients and examines the implications of neuroplastic changes post-injury using advanced imaging techniques.
