TL;DR: Conclusively, CORT has good short‐term but poor long‐term clinical effects, in patellar tendinopathy, and HSR hasGood short‐ and long‐ term clinical effects accompanied by pathology improvement and increased collagen turnover.

TL;DR: Cross-sectional data raise the possibility that age may not appreciably influence the dimensions or mechanical properties of the human patellar tendon in vivo, which may be a mechanism to maintain the Mechanical properties of tendon with aging.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied whether persistent physical activity compared with inactivity has a global effect on serum metabolome toward reduced cardiometabolic disease risk, and they used permutation analysis to estimate the significance of the multivariate effect combined across all metabolic measures; univariate effects were estimated by paired testing in twins and in matched pairs in the cohorts.

TL;DR: Protein intake close to resistance exercise workout may alter mRNA expression in a manner advantageous for muscle hypertrophy, suggesting higher proliferating cell activation response with protein supplementation.

TL;DR: It is supposed that the properties of collagen partly explain the capacity of slow muscles to maintain posture and to perform prolonged dynamic work and the effects of training on the tensile properties indicate the close relationship between intramuscular collagen and the endurance capacity of muscles.
