Journal ArticleDOI

Tendon injury and tendinopathy: healing and repair.

TL;DR: There is limited and mixed high-level evidence to support the, albeit common, clinical use of these modalities and further research and scientific evaluation are required before biological solutions become realistic options.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone regenerative medicine: classic options, novel strategies, and future directions

TL;DR: Tissue engineering is a new and developing option that had been introduced to reduce limitations of bone grafts and improve the healing processes of the bone fractures and defects and may open new insights in the near future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Creatine kinase monitoring in sport medicine

TL;DR: It is probably safe to counsel athletes with suspected myopathy to continue to undertake physical activity at a lower intensity, so as to prevent muscle damage from high intensity exercise and allow ample recovery to favour adequate recovery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Studies of surgical outcome after patellar tendinopathy: clinical significance of methodological deficiencies and guidelines for future studies. Victorian Institute of Sport Tendon Study Group.

TL;DR: It is concluded that study methodology may influence reported surgical outcome and practical guidelines for improving study design are suggested, as improved study design would provide clinicians with a more rigorous evidence‐base for treating patients who have recalcitrant patellar tendinopathy.
Journal Article

Biology of tendon injury: healing, modeling and remodeling

TL;DR: The structure of tendons is described, the process of tendon healing is an indivisible process that can be categorized into three overlapping phases for descriptive purposes, and the pathophysiology of tendon injury and healing is reviewed.
