Does self-myofascial release cause a remote hamstring stretching effect based on myofascial chains? A randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2021)
Background: The hamstring muscles are described as forming part of myofascial chains or meridians, and the superficial back line (SBL) is one such chain. Good hamstring flexibility is fundamental to ...
Effect of an unsupervised exercises-based athletics injury prevention programme on injury complaints leading to participation restriction in athletics: a cluster-randomised controlled trial
(MDPI, 2021)
Objective: To test the efficacy of the Athletics Injury Prevention Programme (AIPP) to reduce the percentage of athletes presenting at least one injury complaint leading to participation restriction ...
Biological roles and delivery strategies for ions to promote osteogenic induction
(Frontiers Media, 2021-01-14)
Bone is the most studied tissue in the field of tissue regeneration. Even though it has intrinsic capability to regenerate upon injury, several pathologies and injuries could hamper the highly orchestrated ...
Efects of occipital‑atlas stabilization in the upper cervical spine kinematics: an in vitro study
(Springer Nature, 2021)
This study compares upper cervical spine range of motion (ROM) in the three cardinal planes before and after occiput-atlas (C0–C1) stabilization. After the dissection of the superficial structures to ...
Early short-term postoperative mechanical failures of current ceramic-on-ceramic bearing total hip arthroplasties
(MDPI, 2020)
Although ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearings have been shown to produce the smallest amount of wear volume in vitro as well as in vivo studies when used for total hip arthroplasties (THA), concerns about ...
Does upper cervical manual therapy provide additional benefit in disability and mobility over a physiotherapy primary care program for chronic cervicalgia? A randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2020-11-11)
Introduction: Neck pain is a condition with a high incidence in primary care. Patients with chronic neck pain often experience reduction in neck mobility. However, no study to date has investigated the ...
Análisis de los resultados y los factores adversos de la reparación artroscópica de las lesiones del subescapular de origen degenerativo
(Elsevier, 2021)
Objetivo: Realizar una revisión de roturas del subescapular (SBE) de origen degenerativo tras su reparación por artroscopia y evaluar si los resultados son equiparables en términos de dolor y función a ...
Injuries of the subscapularis: prevalence of partial lesions and their diagnostic difficulty
(Fundación Española de Artroscopia, 2021-12)
Objective: to conduct a review of partial ruptures of the subscapularis muscle (SSC) and establish their prevalence and preoperative diagnostic difficulty, as well as their frequent association to ...
The effectiveness of massage therapy for improving sequelae in post-stroke survivors. A systematic review and meta-analysis
(MDPI, 2021)
Objective: To assess the effect of therapeutic massage for improving sequelae in stroke survivors. Methods: A systematic review of the nine medical databases from January 1961 to December 2020 was carried ...
Immobilization of BMP-2 and VEGF within multilayered polydopamine-coated scaffolds and the resulting osteogenic and angiogenic synergy of co-cultured human mesenchymal stem cells and human endothelial progenitor cells
(MDPI, 2020)
We have previously reported the fabrication of a polycaprolactone and hydroxyapatite composite scaffold incorporating growth factors to be used for bone regeneration. Two growth factors were incorporated ...
