common findings wereinfrapatellar fat padedema (53%),bone marrow edema(27%), prefemoral fat pad edema (19%), andjoint effusion(15.3%). Infrapatellar fat pad edema may be related to the high rate of repeated knee joint extension movements. The high prevalence of positive imaging findings ...
34 In addition, there is a positive association between serum testosterone and medial cartilage in healthy men.35 Testosterone increases muscle strength in males,36, 37 while estrogen increases bone density and muscle strength in females,38, 39 although conflicting evidence on the effect of estrogen...

A randomized controlled trial from Shanghai also showed that mobile app-based rehabilitation therapy could have a potential positive impact on patient self-efficacy, patient-reported physical function, health-related quality of life, and levels of anxiety and depression [17]. However, current wearable...
The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) age greater than or equal to 60 years; (2) unilateral closed IFs; (3) preoperative positive and lateral X-rays of the knee on the fracture side; (4) accepted PFNA internal fixation treatment; (5) no significant skin infection at the surgical ...
The sensitivity of asymmetrical knee flexion to predict posterior fixed DLM was 90%.#An asymmetric deficit in knee flexion is highly suggestive of DLM with anterior detachment and fixed posterior meniscal shift (specificity and positive predictive value of 100%). Given this could be the only ...
The Posterior Sag sign is an easy maneuver completed by flexing both knees to 90 degrees on the examination table. The injured proximal tibia will sit posterior to the uninjured side and posterior relative to the femoral condyles. After a positive finding, the Quad Activation test can be ...
false-negative results have been seen and are quite common, particularly if saline irrigation is required. The sensitivity and specificity ofjoint aspirationcan vary. Sensitivity ranges from 67% to 82%. Specificity ranges from 91% to 95%.21,27Bone scan may be positive for years following arthrop...
