Follistatin Protein Enhances Satellite Cell Counts in Reinnervated Muscle Open
Background Muscle recovery following peripheral nerve repair is sup-optimal. Follistatin (FST), a potent muscle stimulant, enhances muscle size and satellite cell counts following reinnervation when administered as recombinant FST DNA via …

Lower Extremity Biomechanics During a Drop-Vertical Jump in Participants With or Without Chronic Ankle Instability Open
Context: Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is a condition characterized by range-of-motion, neuromuscular, and postural-control deficits and subjective disability, reinjury, and posttraumatic osteoarthritis. Differences have been reported in…

Effect of Impairment-Based Rehabilitation on Lower Leg Muscle Volumes and Strength in Patients With Chronic Ankle Instability: A Preliminary Study Open
Context: Patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI) have demonstrated atrophy of foot and ankle musculature and deficits in ankle strength. The effect of rehabilitation on muscle morphology and ankle strength has not previously been inv…

Gait training for chronic ankle instability improves neuromechanics during walking Open
A novel gait‐training device has been shown to improve gait patterns while patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI) are using the device and our current objective was to analyze the effect of structured gait training with the device o…

Does partial muscle reinnervation preserve future re‐innervation potential? Open
Introduction Late revision nerve surgery for incomplete motor recovery due to partial reinnervation would improve muscle function if all muscle fibers were protected from developing denervation atrophy. Methods Sixty immature Sprague‐Dawle…

CLINICAL COMMENTARY ON MIDFOOT AND FOREFOOT INVOLVEMENT IN LATERAL ANKLE SPRAINS AND CHRONIC ANKLE INSTABILITY. PART 2: CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS. Open
Lateral ankle sprains (LAS) and chronic ankle instability (CAI) are common musculoskeletal injuries that are a result of inversion injury during sport. The midfoot and forefoot is frequently injured during a LAS, is often overlooked during…

Intrinsic Foot Muscle Activation During Specific Exercises: A T2 Time Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study Open
Context: The intrinsic foot muscles maintain the medial longitudinal arch and aid in force distribution and postural control during gait. Impaired intrinsic foot-muscle function has been linked to various foot conditions. Several rehabilit…

Patterns of congenital bony spinal deformity and associated neural anomalies on X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging Open
Purpose Congenital malformations of the bony vertebral column are often accompanied by spinal cord anomalies; these observations have been reinforced with the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We hypothesized that the incidence of c…

Diminished Foot and Ankle Muscle Volumes in Young Adults With Chronic Ankle Instability Open
Background: Patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI) have demonstrated altered neuromuscular function and decreased muscle strength when compared with healthy counterparts without a history of ankle sprain. Up to this point, muscle vo…

Rehabilitation for Chronic Ankle Instability With or Without Destabilization Devices: A Randomized Controlled Trial Open
Individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI) have deficits in neuromuscular control and altered movement patterns. Ankle-destabilization devices have been shown to increase lower extremity muscle activity during functional tasks and ma…

Impairment-based Rehabilitation and Gait Training for Chronic Ankle Instability Open
Following a lateral ankle sprain, many patients develop chronic ankle instability (CAI). CAI is a heterogeneous condition that characterizes lateral ankle sprain patients who still have decreased self-reported function, recurrent sprains a…

Lower Extremity Muscle Activation in Patients With or Without Chronic Ankle Instability During Walking Open
Context Ankle sprains are among the most common musculoskeletal injuries, and many individuals with ankle sprains develop chronic ankle instability (CAI). Individuals with CAI exhibit proprioceptive and postural-control deficits, as well a…
