Mechanisms for tendon adaptation include strain, fluid movement and stress relaxation. Here I discuss what they are, how they relate to each other and some considerations when you are loading human tendons. Link here: tendinopathyrehab.com/blog/biomechan… #tendinopathy #strongtendons

Thanks to AAOS and Biologic Association for inviting me to talk #tendinopathy novel treatments at the The 3rd annual AAOS-Biologic Association Symposium…. Discussed immune modulation and microRNA clinical trials as well as tendon modifying therapies 💉💊

Great new study on normative values for calf raise testing from Tjerk Visser, Achilles Tendons Kim Hébert-Losier Robert-Jan de Vos & Denise Eygendaal. Results are influenced by activity levels, sex and BMI. See full study for details 🔗 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Terminating Corticosteroid Injection in Tendinopathy? Hasta la Vista, Baby pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37506303/ That "window" isnt really a window. maybe, just maybe, zoom out.

Tendinopathy pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33414454/ One of the best papers Ive seen, tendon issues (like OA) are still seen as a tissue specific issue, and often "treated" directly, repeatedly with outdated info/language zoom out!!!

Corticosteroid injections: glass half-full, half-empty or full then empty? pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32001518/ An essential read for any clinician that provides CSI for MSK issues by John Orchard Do you fully disclose the short term nature of this intervention? 🧐

How long does a knee replacement last? 🤔 Based on pooled registry data on TKRs (n=299,291) and UKRs (n=7714): ➡️ Approximately 82% of TKRs are expected to last 25 years. ➡️ Approximately 70% of UKRs are expected to last 25 years. thelancet.com/journals/lance…

Back on this platform after a good gap. Recently dipped back in and still much more good content than bad, IMO. Thanks to some great clinicians and researchers who share lots of useful material. Time to share and learn again #tendons #tendongeek
