Article Synopsis
  • Scientists are really interested in how to help the area where tendons connect to bones heal better because it's tricky to fix.
  • They are using a fancy technique called electrospinning to create special scaffolds that can help these tissues grow back together.
  • The review talks about how this technology works, the problems that are still there, and why it's important for helping people move better after injuries.

Objective: Patellofemoral grind refers to the tender behind the knee cap while contracting the quadriceps muscle during the patellar grind test. The present investigation aims to elucidate the association between patellofemoral grind and synovitis in the knee osteoarthritis (KOA).

Method: A total of 1,119 knees with complete patellofemoral grind and synovitis assessment records from the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI) were investigated in this study.

Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is more accurate than mammography in screening for breast cancer. Exposure to ionizing radiation from repeated diagnostic X-rays may be a cause of breast cancer.

Methods: We conducted systematic searches on PubMed, Cochrane and Embase to identify studies on women who underwent mammography or MRI screening.
