Video Summary
The National Fellows Online Lecture Series hosted a lecture titled "Tendinopathy Management Using Hard Science," delivered by Dr. Kentaro Onishi, an expert in sports medicine and tendinopathy. Dr. Onishi presented an evidence-based overview of tendinopathy, emphasizing its prevalence and the need for effective management beyond palliative care. He outlined the structure and biology of tendons, highlighting the potential role of tendon-specific stem cells (TSCs) in tendon regeneration. Dr. Onishi discussed various treatment strategies, including the effects of mechanical loading, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and percutaneous needle tenotomy (PNT) on tendons. He pointed out that different tendon conditions require specific treatment approaches, suggesting that PRP is more beneficial for acute injuries, while advanced tendinopathy might need scar removal techniques like percutaneous ultrasonic tenotomy. Furthermore, he introduced HMGV-1, a protein involved in inflammation and degeneration within tendons, and mentioned its preventive potential when targeted with pharmaceuticals like metformin. The talk concluded with Dr. Onishi presenting interesting case studies and engaging in a Q&A session, where he provided insights on choosing appropriate treatments and managing various tendon-related injuries effectively.
