Mechanical stimulation is a key factor in the development and healing of tendon-bone insertion. Treadmill training is an important rehabilitation treatment. This study aims to investigate the benefits of treadmill training initiated on postoperative day 7 for tendon-bone insertion healing. A tendon-bone insertion injury healing model was established in 92 C57BL/6 male mice. All mice were divided into control and training groups by random digital table method. The control group mice had full free activity in the cage, and the training group mice started the treadmill training on postoperative day 7. The quality of tendon-bone insertion healing was evaluated by histology, immunohistochemistry, reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting, micro-CT, micro-MRI, open field tests, and CatWalk gait and biomechanical assessments.Aims
Methods
The aim of this study was to determine whether there is any significant
difference in temporal measurements of pain, function and rates
of re-tear for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR) patients compared
with those patients undergoing open RCR. This study compared questionnaire- and clinical examination-based
outcomes over two years or longer for two series of patients who
met the inclusion criteria: 200 open RCR and 200 arthroscopic RCR
patients. All surgery was performed by a single surgeon. Objectives
