Background: Although most surgeons allow their patients to play golf after total
hip arthroplasty (THA), the effect on the implant during the golf swing is still
unclear. Purpose: To evaluate hip kinematics during the golf swing after THA.
Study Design: Descriptive laboratory study. Methods: Eleven hips in 9 patients
who underwent primary THA were analyzed. All patients were right-handed

One-Year Follow-up of Platelet-Rich Plasma Treatment in Chronic Achilles TendinopathyAmerican Journal of Sports Medicine - Tập 39 Số 8 - Trang 1623-1630 - 2011
Suzan de Jonge, Robert‐Jan de Vos, Adam Weir, Hans T. M. van Schie, Sita M.A. Bierma‐Zeinstra, Jan A.N. Verhaar, H. Weinans, Johannes L Tol
Background Achilles tendinopathy is a common disease among both athletes and in
the general population in which the use of platelet-rich plasma has recently
been increasing. Good evidence for the use of this autologous product in
tendinopathy is limited, and data on longer-term results are lacking. Purpose To
study the effects of a platelet-rich plasma injection in patients with chronic
midportion... hiện toàn bộ
Autologous Platelets Have No Effect on the Healing of Human Achilles Tendon RupturesAmerican Journal of Sports Medicine - Tập 39 Số 1 - Trang 38-47 - 2011
Thorsten Schepull, Joanna Kvist, Hanna Norrman, Marie Trinks, Gösta Berlin, Per Aspenberg
Background: Animal studies have shown that local application of platelet-rich
plasma (PRP) stimulates tendon repair. Preliminary results from a retrospective
case series have shown faster return to sports. Hypothesis: Autologous PRP
stimulates healing of acute Achilles tendon ruptures. Study Design: Randomized
controlled trial; Level of evidence, 2. Methods: Thirty patients were recruited

Comparison of Growth Factor and Platelet Concentration From Commercial Platelet-Rich Plasma Separation SystemsAmerican Journal of Sports Medicine - Tập 39 Số 2 - Trang 266-271 - 2011
Tiffany N. Castillo, Michael A. Pouliot, Hyeon Joo Kim, Jason L. Dragoo
Background: Clinical studies claim that platelet-rich plasma (PRP) shortens
recovery times because of its high concentration of growth factors that may
enhance the tissue repair process. Most of these studies obtained PRP using
different separation systems, and few analyzed the content of the PRP used as
treatment. Purpose: This study characterized the composition of single-donor PRP
produced by 3... hiện toàn bộ
Treatment of Chronic Elbow Tendinosis with Buffered Platelet-Rich PlasmaAmerican Journal of Sports Medicine - Tập 34 Số 11 - Trang 1774-1778 - 2006
Allan Mishra, Terri Pavelko
Background Elbow epicondylar tendinosis is a common problem that usually
resolves with nonoperative treatments. When these measures fail, however,
patients are interested in an alternative to surgical intervention. Hypothesis
Treatment of chronic severe elbow tendinosis with buffered platelet-rich plasma
will reduce pain and increase function in patients considering surgery for their
problem. Stud... hiện toàn bộ
Platelet-Rich Plasma Versus Autologous Whole Blood for the Treatment of Chronic Lateral Elbow EpicondylitisAmerican Journal of Sports Medicine - Tập 39 Số 10 - Trang 2130-2134 - 2011
C. Thanasas, George N. Papadimitriou, Charalambos Charalambidis, I. Paraskevopoulos, Athanasios Papanikolaou
Background: Chronic lateral elbow epicondylitis is a tendinosis with
angiofibrolastic degeneration of the wrist extensors’ origin. Healing of this
lesion is reported with the use of autologous blood as well as with
platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Purpose: A comparative study of these 2 treatments
was conducted in an effort to investigate the possible advantages of PRP. Study
Design: Randomized control... hiện toàn bộ
Platelet-Rich Plasma Augmentation for Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff RepairAmerican Journal of Sports Medicine - Tập 39 Số 2 - Trang 258-265 - 2011
Roberto Castricini, Umile Giuseppe Longo, Massimo De Benedetto, N. Panfoli, Piergiorgio Pirani, Raul Zini, Nicola Maffulli, Vincenzo Denaro
Background: After reinsertion on the humerus, the rotator cuff has limited
ability to heal. Growth factor augmentation has been proposed to enhance healing
in such procedure. Purpose: This study was conducted to assess the efficacy and
safety of growth factor augmentation during rotator cuff repair. Study Design:

Platelet Activation by Collagen Provides Sustained Release of Anabolic CytokinesAmerican Journal of Sports Medicine - Tập 39 Số 4 - Trang 729-734 - 2011
Sophia L. Harrison, Patrick Vavken, Sherwin V. Kevy, May S. Jacobson, David Zurakowski, Martha M. Murray
Background: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been increasingly used in sports
medicine applications. Platelets are thought to release growth factors important
in wound healing, including transforming growth factor (TGF-β1),
platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-AB), and vascular endothelial growth factor
(VEGF). However, little is known about the effect of platelet activator choice
on growth factor r... hiện toàn bộ
Ongoing Positive Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma Versus Corticosteroid Injection in Lateral EpicondylitisAmerican Journal of Sports Medicine - Tập 39 Số 6 - Trang 1200-1208 - 2011

Background: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been shown to be a general
stimulation for repair and 1-year results showed promising success percentages.
Purpose: This trial was undertaken to determine the effectiveness of PRP
compared with corticosteroid injections in patients with chronic lateral
epicondylitis with a 2-year follow-up. Study Design: Randomized controlled
