Pathogenesis of Fibrosis in Patella-Patellar Tendon Junction Induced by Jumping Load in a Rabbit Model.
J Appl Physiol (1985)

School of Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, Beijing Sport University, Beijing, China.
The mechanism of fibrosis at the patella-patellar tendon junction (PPTJ) was investigated using a rabbit overuse jumping model. Thiry-two female New Zealand White rabbits were randomly divided into control and jumping groups, and each group was further divided into four groups at 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks. The rabbits in the jumping group jumped 150 times per day, 5 days per week.

Patellar pathologies are a common cause of knee dysfunction, with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) alone responsible for 25% of knee-related visits to sports medicine clinics. Non-traumatic conditions, while often overlooked, can also lead to significant discomfort and functional limitations, highlighting the importance of accurate and timely diagnosis for effective management and prevention of complications. This pictorial review examines the radiologic characteristics of various non-traumatic patellar disorders, focusing on imaging modalities such as radiography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

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.
Congruency of Ultrasound Measure Changes Against Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in Patellar Tendinopathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

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.

In the past, humans have centered on a number of strategies of treating PT such as ultrasound and surgical treatment. However, they did no longer genuinely consider the effectiveness of eccentric, isometric, or HSR (Heavy Slow Resistance Training) education for PT; They did now not really outline the stage of PT to beautify the uniformity of the find out about participants; They did no longer immediately examine the affects of isometric, eccentric, and HSR training.
