Journal ArticleDOI

Estradiol and progesterone during exercise in healthy untrained women.

TL;DR: Ten eumenorrheic nonathletic women, aged 21-25, were studied on the 8th day following the LH peak in three consecutive cycles to study the effects of estradiol and progesterone on metabolic clearance rate and plasma level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immediate weight-bearing is not detrimental to operatively or conservatively managed rupture of the Achilles tendon

TL;DR: Patients with operatively managed rupture of the tendo Achillis have faster return to normal walking and stair climbing with weight- bearing mobilisation, and non-operatively managed patients attained similar functional outcomes regardless of weight-bearing status.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro investigation of friction at the interface between bone and a surgical instrument

TL;DR: It is concluded that silicone could be a potentially useful material for the design of bases of orthopaedic instruments that interface with bone.
Journal ArticleDOI

High resolution real time ultrasonography of the sural nerve after percutaneous repair of the Achilles tendon

TL;DR: Since the sural nerve can be easily visualised using high-frequency high resolution real time ultrasonography, intraoperative ultrasound can be of assistance during percutaneous repair of Achilles tendon rupture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Muscle transplant in the rabbit's Achilles tendon.

TL;DR: The persistence of the soleus muscle pedicle graft within the Achilles tendon tissue is an index of sound blood supply and this surgical model is suitable for application in further studies on tendon healing.
