This suggest that pain on palpation may serve as a simple clinical marker of underlying structural pathology in midportion Achilles tendinopathy, a unique feature compared to other pain measures, supporting its use in diagnosis & prognosis @AS_itwere https://t.co/jH6rhhNKUu
"NMES may enhance Achilles and patellar tendon structure and mechanical properties, alongside alleviating pain"
One of the clinical takeaways from our #Review of NMES used to supplement lower limb tendon loading protocols.

Such a fun time presenting this at #ISB2025! More sex disaggregated data is needed in Achilles tendinopathy in order to improve outcomes for both males and females!
We are excited for a great week at #ISB2025 !! We have 3 PhD students from our lab presenting their research during the platform sessions this week. Come check them out!! @kgSilbernagel@UDelawarePT
⚡️New Pub⚡️Findings suggest prolonged symptom duration in midportion Achilles tendinopathy is unlikely to ⬆️ the occurrence of symptoms associated with central sensitization https://t.co/uVDlgZ7Txf Great work @MorganNPotter@bio_stats@kgSilbernagel@HayleyPowellPT@UDelawarePT
