Introduction: medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction using an autologous quadriceps tendon graft to treat patellofemoral dislocation in the pediatric population is a surgical alternative that may offer advantages compared to other types of grafts. We assessed clinical and functional outcomes, rate of return to sport, and complications in a cohort of pediatric patients.
Material And Methods: retrospective and descriptive cohort study.

Background: Postural balance is impaired in adults with asthma; however, this remains poorly understood in older people with asthma.
Objective: To assess postural balance and the incidence of falls in older individuals with moderate to severe asthma.
Methods: A controlled cross-sectional study with follow-up included individuals aged 65 to 80 years (asthma group,AG; n = 26) and without asthma (control group,CG; n = 27).

Diabetic myonecrosis is an uncommon complication of poorly controlled diabetes mellitus. Usually, patients present with acute painful swelling of the affected muscles, mostly the quadriceps muscle of the thigh. We present the case of a 57-year-old male with type 2 diabetes mellitus who presented with progressive bilateral thigh pain and reduced movement.

Background: Resistance training plays a crucial role in musculoskeletal rehabilitation and athletic performance. Traditional resistance training often underloads the eccentric phase, as muscles generate more force while lengthening. Isokinetic and iso-inertial exercises have been used to overcome this limitation, with both showing greater muscle activity compared to traditional methods, potentially leading to enhanced strength and hypertrophy.

This study explored the effects of isometric training at long muscle lengths (ISOM) vs. full range of motion (ROM) isotonic training (ISOT) on quadriceps femoris regional hypertrophy. Twenty-three healthy, resistance-trained men and women completed a 6-week, twice-per-week intervention.
