Journal ArticleDOI

Conservative, open or percutaneous repair for acute rupture of the Achilles tendon.

TL;DR: Reviewing the complications and recovery of patients with Achilles tendon rupture managed by percutaneous repair, open repair, and non-operative means in a tertiary referral centre between 2001 and 2003 found conservative management was the least expensive and open surgery the most costly modality of management.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro tenocyte metabolism in aging and oestrogen deficiency.

TL;DR: In vitro evaluation of the proliferation and metabolism of tenocytes isolated from the Achilles tendons of ovariectomised, middle-aged and young rats highlighted how aging and, more significantly, oestrogen deficiency negatively affect tendon metabolism and healing.
Journal ArticleDOI

MCT1 genetic polymorphism influence in high intensity circuit training: A pilot study

TL;DR: The carriers of the A1470T polymorphism in the MTC1 gene seem to exhibit a worse lactate transport capability into the less active muscle cells for oxidation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tendon repair through stem cell intervention: Cellular and molecular approaches

TL;DR: The current state of the art in terms of molecular markers of tendon development, stem cell applicability to human tendon repair, scaffolding for in vitro tendon generation, and chemical/molecular approaches to both induce stem cell differentiation into tenocytes and maintain their proliferation in vitro are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Animal models for translational research on shoulder pathologies: from bench to bedside.

TL;DR: The various animal models already used to study shoulder pathologies are presented and a lack of validation for these animal models provides challenge to the further research in this field.
