Circular saw misuse is related to upper limb injuries: a cross-sectional study
Sabongi, Rodrigo Guerra; Erazo, Jaime Piccaro; Moraes, Vinicius Ynoe de; Fernandes, Carlos Henrique; Santos, João Baptista Gomes dos; Faloppa, FlávioOBJECTIVES: Machinery injuries account for a substantial share of traumatic upper limb injuries (TULIs) affecting young active individuals. This study is based on the hypothesis that there is an important relationship between the improper use of power saws and TULIs. The aim of the study is to assess the prevalence and epidemiology of TULIs caused by power saws and determine the risks related to power saw use. ...
The roles of Tenascin C and Fibronectin 1 in adhesive capsulitis: a pilot gene ...
Cohen, Carina; Leal, Mariana Ferreira; Belangero, Paulo Santoro; Figueiredo, Eduardo Antônio; Smith, Marília Cardoso; Andreoli, Carlos VicenteOBJECTIVES: We evaluated mRNA expression levels of genes that encode TGF-β1; the TGF-β1 receptor; the collagen-modifying enzymes LOX, PLOD1, and PLOD2; and the extracellular matrix proteins COMP, FN1, TNC and TNXB in synovial/capsule specimens from patients with idiopathic adhesive capsulitis. Possible associations between the measured mRNA levels and clinical parameters were also investigated. METHODS: We obta...
High-energy extracorporeal shockwave therapy in a patellar tendon animal model:...
Penteado, Fernando Travaglini; Faloppa, Flávio; Giusti, Guilherme; Moraes, Vinícius Ynoe; Belloti, João Carlos; Santos, João Baptista Gomes dosOBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of high-energy extracorporeal shockwave therapy on tendon angiogenesis in the patellar tendons of rabbits. We sought to investigate whether different voltage and number pulses modify the angiogenesis pattern. INTRODUCTION: High-energy extracorporeal shockwave therapy is an option in the treatment of orthopedic diseases such as chronic tendonitis. Despit...
