Journal ArticleDOI

Prevention of non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injuries in soccer players. Part 1: Mechanisms of injury and underlying risk factors

TL;DR: The identification of those athletes at increased risk may be a salient first step before designing and implementing specific pre-season and in-season training programs aimed to modify the identified risk factors and to decrease ACL injury rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevention of non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injuries in soccer players. Part 2: a review of prevention programs aimed to modify risk factors and to reduce injury rates.

TL;DR: Lower extremity plyometrics, dynamic balance and strength, stretching, body awareness and decision-making, and targeted core and trunk control appear to be successful training components to reduce non-contact ACL injury risk factors and prevent non- contact ACL injuries in soccer players, especially in female athletes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infiltration of plasma rich in growth factors for osteoarthritis of the knee short-term effects on function and quality of life

TL;DR: Improvements in function and quality of life were documented and favourable findings point to consider PRGF as a therapy for OA at 6 months following intra-articular infiltration of PRGF in patients with OA of the knee.
Journal ArticleDOI

Failure of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

TL;DR: The present review classifies and describes the multifactorial causes of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery failure, concentrating on preventing and resolving such situations that require ACL revision due to recurrent instability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anteromedial portal versus transtibial drilling techniques in ACL reconstruction: a blinded cross-sectional study at two- to five-year follow-up

TL;DR: The use of the AMP technique significantly improved the anterior-posterior and rotational knee stability, IKDC scores, and recovery time from surgery compared to the TT technique.
