Can we predict the clinical outcome of arthroscopic partial meniscectomy? A systematic review.
CONCLUSION: Long duration of symptoms (>1 year), radiological knee osteoarthritis and resecting >50% of meniscus are associated with a worse clinical outcome following APM. These prognostic factors should be considered in clinical decision making for patients with meniscal tears.

Clinical risk factors for Achilles tendinopathy: a systematic review.
CONCLUSION: From an ocean of studies with high levels of bias, we extracted nine clinical risk factors that may increase a person's risk of Achilles tendinopathy. Clinicians may consider ofloxacin use, alcohol consumption and a reduced plantar flexor strength as modifiable risk factors when treating patients with Achilles tendinopathy.

Limb Alignment: The Key to Success
In the young active patient with early knee osteoarthritis, chondral defects, meniscal deficiency, and/or ligament instability, it is crucial to assess knee alignment. In this issue of Clinics in Sports Medicine, you will appreciate the importance of limb alignment and how it is central to biologic reconstruction around the knee. It is important to have an armamentarium of techniques for the varus and valgus knees, meniscal transplantation combined with osteotomy, anterior cruciate ligament instability, and osteotomy.

Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) in renal transplant recipients during an unsupervised physical exercise program.
CONCLUSIONS: Unsupervised tailored and mixed exercise intervention reduces some cardiovascular risks factors. However, it does not modify the frailty of RTG. BIVA analysis seems to have appropriate sensitivity to highlight this aspect.

Concise Review: Endothelial Progenitor Cells in Regenerative Medicine: Applications and Challenges
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are currently being studied as candidate cell sources for revascularization strategies. Significant advances have been made in understanding the biology of EPCs, and preclinical studies have demonstrated the vasculogenic, angiogenic, and beneficial paracrine effects of transplanted EPCs in the treatment of ischemic diseases. Despite these promising results, widespread clinical acceptance of EPCs for clinical therapies remains hampered by several challenges. The present study provides a concise summary of the different EPC populations being studied for ischemic therapies and their known r...

Addiction medicine ethics: relapse, no lapse and the struggle to treat addicts like everyone else
Abstract
Two case studies are presented as a focus for discussion of ethics in addiction medicine. The first is that of the alcohol‐dependent patient who receives a liver transplant. The second is that of a heroin‐dependent patient who continues to inject himself while in a general medical ward. I make some comments about the obligations of doctors to treat those who cause harm to themselves as they would treat those who are ‘not responsible’.

Barriers to and facilitators of sports participation for people with physical disabilities: A systematic review
Most people with physical disabilities do not participate in sports regularly, which could increase the chances of developing secondary health conditions. Therefore, knowledge about barriers to and facilitators of sports participation is needed. Barriers and facilitators for people with physical disabilities other than amputation or spinal cord injuries (SCI) are unknown. The aim of this study was to provide an overview of the literature focusing on barriers to and facilitators of sports participation for all people with various physical disabilities. Four databases were searched using MeSH terms and free texts up to April...

Sports and Life Lessons Collide at World Transplant Games
Brock and Connor recently returned from the 2013 World Transplant Games in South Africa
By Brock Marvin
“Tough times never last, but tough people do.”
This is what I told myself every single day that I battled severe dilated cardiomyopathy. And the phrase stayed with me for the months after my eventual heart transplant at Boston Children’s Hospital Heart Transplant Program in 2010. I always had plenty of faith that there were happier, healthier days ahead; I just needed to work a little harder than most teenagers to get there.
But I wasn’t alone in the battle. Months after my transplant, my b...

Return to Sports After Athletes Undergo Meniscal Surgery: A Systematic Review
Conclusions:
The shortest time to RTS and the highest RTS rate were observed after partial meniscectomy. The time to RTS was shorter, and the RTS rate was higher after meniscal repair than after MAT. Concurrent procedures such as ACLR prolonged the time to RTS, but it had no effect on the RTS rate and the level of sports activity at the time of RTS.

Exercise after Heart Transplantation: Typical Alterations,
Diagnostics and Interventions
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1194-4995For the treatment of terminal heart failure, heart transplantation is considered
to be the gold standard, leading to significantly improved quality of life and
long-time survival. For heart transplant recipients, the development and
maintenance of good functional performance and adequate exercise capacity is
crucial for renewed participation and integration in self-determined live. In
this respect, typical transplant-related alterations must be noted that play a
significant role, leading to restrictions both centrally and peripherally.
Before patie...

Return to active duty not likely after allograft treatment for knee defect
(American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine) Treatment of large cartilage knee defects with an allograft osteoarticular transplant may not allow some military personnel to return to full active duty status, say researchers presenting their work at the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine's Specialty Day in Chicago, Ill.

Young athletes with knee pain may turn to meniscus transplant
(American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine) Patients undergoing meniscal allograft transplantation surgery require an additional operation approximately 32 percent of the time, but overall see a 95 percent success rate after an average five-year follow-up, according to new research released today at the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine's Specialty Day.

Osteochondral allograft transplantation effective for certain knee cartilage repairs
(American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine) Isolated femoral condyle lesions account for 75 percent of the cartilage repair procedures performed in the knee joint, and physicians have a variety of techniques to consider as part of surgical treatment. Osteochondral allograft transplantation (OCA) is a valuable and successful approach for this condition, as described by research presented today at the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine's Specialty Day in New Orleans.
