Rating
0.0 stars

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Patellar tendinopathy, or jumper’s knee, is a common injury in athletes of all skill levels. Aside from causing pain and dysfunction, the condition can be costly for individuals and sports teams. Physical therapy is critical, but consistently effective treatment regimens remain elusive. Regenerative therapy is one promising alternative, as platelet-rich plasma injection and cultured stem cell injection have been shown to repair other types of damaged tissue. To explore the benefits for jumper’s knee, researchers compared these two treatments in patients with patellar tendinopathy. The findings, reported in _The American Journal of Sports Medicine_, suggest that cultured stem cell injection is a particularly promising option for functional and structural healing. The researchers examined 20 male patients with patellar tendinopathy that had lasted for at least 4 months, was unresponsive to nonsurgical treatments, and featured lesions larger than 3 mm..."

High-volume shoulder strengthening does not improve subacromial impingement outcomes

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"A new study published in _The American Journal of Sports Medicine_ suggests that adding more shoulder-strengthening exercise to current nonoperative care protocols for subacromial impingement does _not _improve outcomes. Nonoperative care including physical therapy is the first-line treatment for subacromial impingement, also known as shoulder impingement. Although shoulder strengthening is important for recovery, the current exercise protocols don’t always provide sufficient relief. In addition, decompression surgery is no longer recommended for refractory cases, leaving patients with fewer options and increasing the need for better nonoperative care. To determine whether more shoulder-strengthening exercise might help patients achieve relief, the study’s authors randomly divided 200 patients with chronic shoulder pain due to impingement into a control group and an intervention group. The patients in the control group received normal nonoperative care..."
