Effects of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair on isokinetic muscle function 6-months following surgery: influence of tear type, tear size and tendon retraction
Rotator cuff tears are a common musculoskeletal condition which can lead to functional limitations and impairments in quality of life. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of arthroscopic repair surgery on isokinetic muscle function before and 6-months after surgery. Additionally, the mediating effects of tear type, tear size and tendon retraction were examined. (Source: Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery)

High Platelet Dose PRP May be the Nonoperative Treatment of Choice for Knee Osteoarthritis
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) affects 30% of individuals over 60 and 40% over 70 years old. The incidence of radiological knee OA is 373 per 10,000 person-years, but symptomatic knee OA registers as a considerably lower rate of 50 per 10,000 person-years. For symptomatic cases that are not candidates for surgical intervention, various treatment options include exercise, weight loss, pharmacological management, bracing, physical therapy, oral supplementation, and intra-articular injection with corticosteroids, hyaluronic acid, or orthobiologics such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP).
