Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the regional protein turnover in tendon tissue from patients with chronic patellar tendinopathy and comparing this to healthy controls. Further we will examine the effect of resistance training on protein turnover in healthy individuals.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the benefits from adding multimedia animations to a paper-based therapeutic exercise program in subjects with rotator cuff related shoulder pain. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Does subjects improve more regarding shoulder disability and pain? - Are the subjects more satisfied with the treatment received? - Do the subjects adhere more to the exercise program? - Do the subjects perform better the trained exercises? - Do the subjects have greater expectations with the treatment received? Participants will perform a therapeutic exercise program within 6 months. Researchers will compare the addition of web-app animations to the classical paper-based information.
The purpose of the present study is to assess the efficacy of secukinumab 300 mg s.c. (subcutaneous) compared to placebo, each in combination with standard of care, in improving signs, symptoms and physical function in participants with moderate to severe rotator cuff tendinopathy (RCT), using a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel group design to minimize bias.
The purpose of the present project is to investigate if the restitution time from loading in an exercise-based 12 weeks rehabilitation regime for patellar tendinopathy influences the clinical outcome, tendon structure and function. The investigators hypothesize that greater restitution from loading (1 exercise day per week) will yield a greater positive clinical outcome, and tissue structure and function in patients with patellar tendinopathy compared to less restitution (3 exercise days per week), when impact activities are restricted in both groups.

Currently, the only study comparing the long-term results of these procedures (two years) is that of Kim.(24) This study is the first randomized, blinded clinical trial comparing ultrasound-guided percutaneous lavage ( UPL) for rotator cuff calcific tendinopathy with subacromial injection vs. Shock (1000 impulses/0.36mJ/mm2), obtaining clinical improvement and reabsorption of calcification in both groups. In this study, greater effectiveness was observed in terms of pain improvement and functional recovery in these patients in the short term than in those undergoing UPL: The results of this study were obtained through radiographic evaluation (AP X-ray of the shoulder) before and after intervention and clinical evaluation in both groups using the scales of the American Society of Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), the Simple Shoulder Test (SST) and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Our future work may add many interesting data to the comparative study of these two techniques, since it would provide new results, overcoming the limitations of the only similar study in the literature today. On the one hand, the radiological selection of patients will be carried out with shoulder X-rays and a shoulder ultrasound performed by two expert musculoskeletal radiologists from this center and validated by interobserver correlation. This will allow a detailed selection of patients according to the characteristics and phases of the calcification that they present. Sonographically, calcifications are classified into three types (according to Garner's 1993 classification): type I, II and III. As we have previously mentioned, calcific tendinopathy is a self-limited disease and we know that calcifications in phase III or in the resorption phase tend to resolve spontaneously. The control ultrasound that will be performed on the patients will also be performed by the same expert musculoskeletal radiologists who have performed the interobserver correlation study. Secondly , we are going to define a maximum number as well as the exact protocol for carrying out the Eco - guided Puncture Lavage technique . Another contribution of our work is that we will carry out an evaluation of the differences between both techniques up to two years post-treatment, which will allow us to know the long-term evolution of the results.
Achilles tendinopathy is highly prevalent in runners, but its evolution is not easily predictable. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of clinical and social factors on the prognosis of acute (less than 3 months) Achilles tendinopathy in runners. Runners will be evaluated in person twice. At their first visit, data related to their training (frequency, intensity, …), their running pattern (cadence, foot contact angle) and shoes (minimalist index) will be collected. Moreover, an ultrasound evaluation of Achilles tendon will be performed. At one, two and three months after their initial evaluation, participants will receive a link to complete an online survey about their pain. Three months after their initial evaluation, a second ultrasound of Achilles tendon will be performed.
PLT vs. steroid vs. PLT + steroid, which treatment is most effective in lateral epicondylitis (or tennis elbow) and supraspinatus calcific tendinitis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in participant population (patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy of the shoulder) the effect of a Global Postural Reeducation (GPR) program vs. a nonspecific therapeutic (aerobic) exercise program
