Filter by:To compare the effects of facial distortion model and equipment assisted soft tissue mobilization techniques on the treatment process, which are among the applications in the rehabilitation process after meniscus repair.
A single-arm, multi-center study to verify that knee joint function at 52 weeks after injection of FF-31501 is better than at screening in patients with meniscus tear who are eligible for meniscectomy .
Genomes of all sports medicine-related genes will be exome sequenced to find relevant gene mutations. To further study the molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways related to sports injury. To search for genetic risk factors of injury and put forward related scientific hypotheses. To demonstrate the importance of mutation or polymorphism of related genes in injury.
Through the analysis of the data of 8094 patients with knee meniscus injury before December 31, 2008 and more patients with partial meniscus resection, subtotal resection and total resection, we can understand the gender difference and ratio of medial and lateral meniscus injuries. Differences, differences in locations, differences in tearing methods, differences in surgical methods, and the course of the disease affect the meniscus injury and surgical methods, and further affect the patient's knee degeneration imaging, accompanying cartilage injury, knee osteoarthritis, Partial resection, subtotal resection and meniscus regeneration after total resection, imaging and secondary arthroscopic exploration (Second-Look) were studied.
Our study has explored the causes of failure of meniscus repair and investigated the clinical effects of partial meniscectomy when meniscus repair failed.

Injuries to the meniscus are common in sport. A meniscectomy is often performed to manage symptoms associated with the meniscal injury. Following a meniscectomy individuals are highly likely to develop knee osteoarthritis (OA). Footwear interventions have demonstrated biomechanical changes during walking and running, in healthy and individuals with osteoarthritis. With the increased risk of developing OA associated with meniscectomy patients, understanding biomechanical changes with footwear when compared to healthy individuals, may provide a conservative approach to delaying or minimising the development of (OA). There is no current literature assessing the effect footwear has post meniscectomy, so this is a very novel approach and can yield important results for the management of future risks. Current evidence supports the use of footwear interventions aiming to minimise OA progression in older adults during walking. Yet, meniscectomy patients who have sustained an injury during sport are likely to continue to participate in sport following treatment in their usual footwear. Further evidence is required to better understand the effect of footwear interventions during dynamic movements often performed in sport. Previous studies have assessed customised footwear interventions, however these interventions are not representative of commercially available interventions that could be widely used by the general population. Therefore assessing commercially available footwear will give a more realistic approach to conservative treatment for meniscectomy patients. This project aims to examine biomechanical differences between commercially available footwear conditions in healthy individuals and individuals who have had a meniscal injury. Three-dimensional kinetic and kinematic measures will be assessed during five tasks (walking, running, 90 degrees side cut, single leg landing, and small knee bend squat), for different footwear conditions.
The key aim of this study is to examine biomechanical measures associated with osteoarthritis (OA) progression in patients who have lateral and medial menisci injuries during various tasks. The likelihood is that individuals who have a meniscal injury often develop knee osteoarthritis. Therefore understanding biomechanical changes from the injury, specifically undertaking both functional and sporting activities, may provide a conservative approach to delaying or minimising the development of OA. Three-dimensional kinetic and kinematic measures will be assessed during seven tasks (walking, running, side cuts, single leg landing, small knee bend squat and isokinetic leg strength), prior to and following treatment. In addition, Strength and balance will be assessed to indicate if there is more work in the rehabilitation program that is needed for functional movement.
PURPOSE: To investigate the natural time course of patient-reported outcomes after meniscus surgery and identify factors associated with good and bad outcome after surgery.
