Achilles Tendon Mechanical But Not Morphological Properties Change with Rehabilitation in Patients with Chronic Midportion Achilles Tendinopathy.
Med Sci Sports Exerc
November 2024
Human Movement Biomechanics research group, Department of Movement Science, KU Leuven, BELGIUM.
Purpose: Achilles tendinopathy (AT) is associated with altered tendon's morphological and mechanical properties, yet it is unclear whether these properties are reversed upon mechanical loading to promote tendon healing. This study aims to determine the extent to which pathological tendon's morphological and mechanical properties adapt throughout a 12-week eccentric rehabilitation protocol.
Methods: Forty participants with midportion AT were recruited and participated in a 12-week eccentric rehabilitation program.
Do physical or imaging changes explain the effectiveness of progressive tendon loading exercises? A causal mediation analysis of athletes with patellar tendinopathy.

Department of Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, Erasmus MC University Medical Center, the Netherlands.
Objectives: To investigate whether the effectiveness of progressive tendon loading exercises (PTLE) on patellar tendinopathy is mediated through changes in physical or imaging properties.
Design: Mediation analyses based on a randomized clinical trial (n = 76) in patellar tendinopathy comparing PTLE with eccentric exercise therapy (EET).
Methods: Pain-related disability on Victorian Institute of Sports Assessment-Patella (VISA-P, 0 to 100) and pain (Visual Analogue Score) after single-leg decline squat (VAS-SLDS, 0 to 10) at 24 weeks were outcome measures.
Sex Differences and Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy Outcomes in Runners with Achilles or Hamstring Tendinopathy.

December 2024
Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.
: Achilles and hamstring tendinopathies are common injuries in runners, and extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) may be an effective treatment. Runners are at risk for lower extremity tendinopathies and the Male and Female Athlete Triad (Triad). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the association of sex, exposure to hormonal contraceptives, menopause, and Triad-related risk factors with ESWT outcomes in the treatment of Achilles and hamstring tendinopathy.

The field of allogeneic blood and marrow transplantation-cellular therapy (BMT-CT) has evolved through incremental advances. Engineered donor grafts, gene editing and chimeric antigen receptor T-cells are all standard clinical practice. Consequently, the scientific knowledge and complexity of clinical skills needed for next generation of BMT-CT physicians have increased.

Patellar tendinopathy is a highly prevalent clinical diagnosis supported by ultrasound changes. Numerous interventions are targeted at improving both symptoms and structure of dysfunctional tendons, however little is known of the diagnostic value in a changing ultrasound profile whilst patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) determine recovery. The aim is to assess if changes in ultrasound measures are congruent with changes in Victorian Institute of Sports Assessment - Patella (VISA-P) scores, thereby supporting the use of ultrasound to assess patellar tendinopathy during symptom improvement.
