Molecular Events in Tendinopathy: A Role for Metalloproteases

TL;DR: The mechanism of activation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) is poorly understood, and their precise role in tendinopathy is unclear as discussed by the authors, but they are involved in remodelling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) of tendons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surgical management of chronic Achilles tendon ruptures using less invasive techniques.

TL;DR: All three techniques produced significant functional improvement, and return to sports was possible in most patients, and this study does not demonstrate a clear advantage of one technique over the others.
Journal ArticleDOI

The low-profile Roman bridge technique for knotless double-row repair of the rotator cuff

TL;DR: This technique allows us to perform a low-profile (single pulley–suture bridges) repair for knotless double-row repair of the rotator cuff.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anatomic repair for chronic lateral ankle instability.

TL;DR: Direct anatomic surgical repair with the Brostrom procedure with or without its modifications is advocated for patients who suffer recurrent ankle instability with activities of daily living, work on uneven terrain, or sports.
Journal ArticleDOI

Supervised training and home-based rehabilitation in patients with stabilized ankylosing spondylitis on TNF inhibitor treatment: a controlled clinical trial with a 12-month follow-up:

TL;DR: In comparison with the educational-behavioural programme or no intervention, supervised training and home exercises improved long-term outcome in patients with ankylosing spondylitis.
