Objective: To compare physical activity (PA) levels between individuals with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) and uninjured controls and determine correlates of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA).
Design: Cross-sectional, comparative study.
Setting: University laboratory.
Participants: A total number of 25 individuals with FAIS (15 female; age, 31.0±9.2 years; symptom duration, 4.7±7.1 years) and 14 uninjured controls (9 female; age, 28.0±9.1 years) (N=39).
Interventions: Not applicable.
Main Outcome Measures: All individuals wore an accelerometer around the waist during waking hours for 7 days. We compared demographic, clinical data, and PA levels between groups using independent samples tests and compared the proportions of those meeting the PA guideline cutoff (150min/wk) using a chi-square test. Additionally, we examined correlates of mean daily MVPA using linear regression in both groups.
Results: Individuals with FAIS spent less time in MVPA (controls, 52.1±25.6min/d; FAIS, 26.9±19.1min/d; =.001) and took fewer steps (controls, 8428±2931 steps/d; FAIS, 6449±2527 steps/d; =.033) than uninjured controls. A lower proportion of individuals with FAIS met the PA cutoff (40.0%) compared with uninjured controls (78.6%; =.020). Higher body mass index (BMI) values and lower (worse) Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS)-Quality of Life subscale scores were associated with lower mean daily MVPA in those with FAIS ( =21.2%, =.021; =22.0%, =.018; respectively) but not in uninjured controls.
Conclusions: Individuals with FAIS spent less time in daily MVPA, took fewer daily steps, and met recommended PA guideline cutoffs at lower proportions compared with uninjured controls. Higher BMI and lower HOOS-Quality of Life scores were associated with lower mean daily MVPA. Interventions should be developed for individuals with FAIS to increase PA engagement to potentially lessen the risk of future comorbidities associated with decreased PA and increased BMI.

Objective: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) leads to high rates of knee post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). Physical activity may mitigate PTOA risk but levels after ACLR have not been extensively studied. We aimed to review self-reported and device-measured physical activity levels in individuals with ACLR and compare them with international guidelines, and with uninjured controls.

Spinal V3 interneurons are glutamatergic neurons that are distributed among the dorsal, intermediate, and ventral spinal cord. They are involved in broad neural circuit connections in the central nervous system. Functionally, they play important roles in locomotion, such as the maintenance of robust and balanced gaits during walking.

The corticospinal tract (CST) is essential for forelimb-specific fine motor skills. In rodents, it undergoes extensive structural remodeling across development, injury, and disease states, with major implications for motor function. A vast body of literature, spanning numerous injury models, frequently assesses these projections.

Background: Peripheral nerve injuries often lead to inconsistent outcomes due to the complexity of nerve regeneration. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been proposed to enhance regeneration by improving oxygenation, promoting angiogenesis, and facilitating cellular repair processes. This study evaluated the effects of long-term HBOT on axonal regeneration, remyelination, and functional recovery in a rat model of sciatic nerve injury repaired with autologous nerve grafts.

Objective: To evaluate whether injury rates are elevated after return to sport after concussion clearance in youth athletes and examine differences between concussed athletes who sustain injury after return to play and those who remain uninjured.
Design: Prospective cohort study.
Setting: Large metropolitan hospital.
