Introduction: This review aims to synthesise research evidence regarding biomarkers in the synovial fluid that may predict the risk of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) in young adults. Considering the high prevalence of knee joint injuries, particularly among youth sports athletes, this review will focus on anterior cruciate ligament and/or meniscal ruptures. These injuries are highly associated with PTOA, with studies indicating that even with surgical reconstruction, 50%-80% of affected individuals develop knee PTOA within a 10-year follow-up.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Wearable activity-measurement devices are increasingly popular among the public, but there is little information regarding their use among patients undergoing sports medicine procedures. The purpose of this study was to compare accelerometer-measured data with traditional patient-reported measures and to determine the trajectory of physical activity from before surgery to 1 year after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
Materials And Methods: Adult patients undergoing primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction were enrolled in this prospective cohort pilot study.

Purpose: To investigate the failure rate, predictive factors associated with failure and clinical outcomes after a two-stage surgery; meniscus repair followed by subsequent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR).
Methods: Patients with a concomitant traumatic meniscus tear and ACL injury who underwent a two-stage surgery between January 2015 and January 2021 were identified. The primary outcome was meniscal repair failure, defined as a reoperation (re-repair or resection).

Background: Some patients submitted to isolated ACL reconstruction may have symptomatic postoperative rotational instability. The objective of this study was to evaluate a population with mild rotatory instability after ACL reconstruction, which was submitted to an isolated extra-articular procedure.
Methods: Patients submitted to an isolated extra-articular procedure after ACL reconstruction were retrospectively evaluated.
