Nonoperative treatments have proven highly effective for managing MAT, often serving as the primary approach, as approximately 75% of patients experience spontaneous resolution of the condition.

Healthy tendons do not contain an extensive #vascular network, so why would I be interested? Well, vascular ingrowth is a hallmark of #tendinopathy! 👇 Look at what Greta discovered! #snedekerlab #debocklab

What do you recommend for #pain management when it comes to supraspinatus/subspinatus #tendinopathy and ulnar #neuritis? It's pretty unbearable at times!

Thanks in advance!

I love an article that includes a great infographic.

But there's also more to unpack than just differential diagnosis' to consider.

When you're working in an engineering school you end up talking about mechanics ;-). Together with Jess Snedeker-lab, we embarked on studying the molecular mechanisms underlying #tendinopathy. Currently revising the comments of the reviewers, but you can read it now:

Huge congrats to newly minted Dr Alejandro Gomez from @dakinlabgroup.bsky.social @ndorms.bsky.social for successfully defending his DPhil on #inflammation & #fibrosis in #tendinopathy today. Super grateful to external examiner Prof Traweger for making the trip to Oxford🤩

Tendon health is influenced by multiple factors!

These should be considered in tendinopathy management, especially where there are signs of systemic factors such as multi-site pain or lack of response to treatment.
