Widespread Vascularization and Correlation of Glycosaminoglycan Accumulation to Tendon Pain in Human Plantar Fascia Tendinopathy Am. J. Sports Med. (IF 4.8) Pub Date : 2024-05-06 Max F.R. Merkel, Rene B. Svensson, Jens R. Jakobsen, Abigail L. Mackey, Peter Schjerling, Robert B. Herzog, S. Peter Magnusson, Lars Konradsen, Michael R. Krogsgaard, Michael Kjær, Finn E. Johannsen
Background:Plantar fasciitis is a painful tendinous condition (tendinopathy) with a high prevalence in athletes. While a healthy tendon has limited blood flow, ultrasound has indicated elevated blood flow in tendinopathy, but it is unknown if this is related to a de facto increase in the tendon vasculature. Likewise, an accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) is observed in tendinopathy, but its

Magnetic Seeding of SPIO-BMSCs Into a Biphasic Scaffold Can Promote Tendon-Bone Healing After Rotator Cuff Repair Am. J. Sports Med. (IF 4.8) Pub Date : 2024-05-04 Chi Zhang, Jia-Le Jin, Cong-Hui Zhou, Cheng-Xing Ruan, Peng-Fei Lei, You-Zhi Cai
Background:The tendon-bone interface (TBI) in the rotator cuff has a poor intrinsic capacity for healing, which increases the risk of retear after rotator cuff repair (RCR). However, facilitating regeneration of the TBI still remains a great clinical challenge. Herein, the authors established a novel strategy based on magnetic seeding to enhance the TBI regeneration.Hypothesis:Magnetic seeding bone

Background:Historically, it was assumed by some that high leg lift with windup pitching generated more ball velocity whereas pitching from the stretch was quicker to reduce the risk of base stealing but also more stressful on the arm. However, many now believe that velocity and stress do not differ between windup and stretch and always pitching from the stretch is simpler than mastering 2 techniques
