Journal ArticleDOI

Bilateral consecutive rupture of the quadriceps tendon in a man with BstUI polymorphism of the COL5A1 gene : Reply to the letter by R. Dalgleish (Letter to the Editors)

TL;DR: The article stated that ‘‘it is possible that an interaction between the various intrinsic and extrinsic factors with the genetic make up of a given individual increases the likelihood of that individual developing tendinopathy’’ and that �‘the exact role of COL5A1 and TNC genes in the pathogenesis of tend inopathy is still debated, and the current evidence does not allow to clarify’.
Journal ArticleDOI

The cubital tunnel: a radiologic and histotopographic study

TL;DR: The anatomy of the cubital tunnel showed the presence of superimposed layers, corresponding to fascial, tendineous and muscular layers, giving rise to a tri‐laminar structure, which may play a role in producing the symptoms typical of cubital Tunnel syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic biomarkers in non-contact muscle injuries in elite soccer players

Journal ArticleDOI

Syndesmosis injuries of the ankle

Journal ArticleDOI
