Tendinopathy describes a complex multifaceted pathology of the tendon, characterized by
pain, decline in function and reduced exercise tolerance. The most common overuse …

Background The present article systematically reviews recent literature on the in vivo
adaptation of asymptomatic human tendons following increased chronic mechanical …

Background: Previous studies have shown that eccentric training has a positive effect on
Achilles tendinopathy, but few randomized controlled trials have compared it with other …

Background Few interventions reduce patellar tendinopathy (PT) pain in the short term.
Eccentric exercises are painful and have limited effectiveness during the competitive …

The hallmark features of patellar tendinopathy are (1) pain localized to the inferior pole of
the patella and (2) load-related pain that increases with the demand on the knee extensors …

Tendinopathy (pain and dysfunction in a tendon) is a prevalent clinical musculoskeletal
presentation across the age spectrum, mostly in active and sporting people. Excess load …

Background: Injection therapies are often considered alongside exercise for chronic
midportion Achilles tendinopathy (AT), although evidence of their efficacy is sparse …

Background Few evidence-based treatment guidelines for tendinopathy exist. We undertook
a systematic review of randomised trials to establish clinical efficacy and risk of adverse …

Introduction Achilles and patellar tendinopathy are overuse injuries that are common among
athletes. Isolated eccentric muscle training has become the dominant conservative …

Athletic performance relies on tendons, which enable movement by transferring forces from
muscles to the skeleton. Yet, how load-bearing structures in tendons sense and adapt to …
