Journal ArticleDOI
Common Skeletal Injuries in Young Athletes
TL;DR: As the risk of injuries sustained by young athletes can be significant, it is essential that training programmes take into account their physical and psychological immaturity, so that the growing athlete can adjust to their own body changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hormones and tendinopathies: the current evidence.
Francesco Oliva,Eleonora Piccirilli,Anna C. Berardi,Antonio Frizziero,Umberto Tarantino,Nicola Maffulli,Nicola Maffulli,Nicola Maffulli +7 more
TL;DR: The influence of hormones on tendon structure and metabolism needs to be further investigated and if found to be significant, multidisciplinary preventive and therapeutic strategies should then be developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetics and epidemiology of idiopathic congenital talipes equinovarus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs in tendinopathy: friend or foe
Merzesh Magra,Nicola Maffulli +1 more

Journal ArticleDOI
Carnosine, taurine and enzyme activities of human skeletal muscle fibres from elderly subjects with osteoarthritis and young moderately active subjects
TL;DR: Ageing is associated with a reduction in muscle carnosine (β-alanyl-l-histidine), but there are no data on the changes specifically in type I and type II muscle fibres, and changes observed in whole muscle may be secondary to a shift in fibre composition.
