Ankle Motion Is Associated With Soft Tissue Displacement in the Dorsal Thigh: An in vivo Investigation Suggesting Myofascial Force Transmission Across the Knee Joint
Jan Wilke, Heloise Debelle, Sarah Tenberg, Andrew Dilley, Constantinos MaganarisThis study investigated how ankle motion affects tissue in the back of the thigh. Researchers passively stretched the calves of healthy participants lying prone with an extended knee. Using ultrasound, they observed tha…

Ultrasound-detected connective tissue involvement in acute muscle injuries in elite athletes and return to play: The French National Institute of Sports (INSEP) study
Jérôme Renoux, Jean-Louis Brasseur, Mathilde Wagner, Alain Frey, Dominique Folinais, Christian Dibie, Djamila Maiza, Mi…This study examined 70 elite athletes with acute muscle injuries. Researchers used ultrasound within seven days to assess injury severity and to see if connective tissue was involved. They then tracked the time it took…

Stiffness and echogenicity: Development of a stiffness-echogenicity matrix for clinical problem solving
Antonio Stecco, Carmelo Pirri, Raffaele De Caro, Preeti RaghavanAssessing soft tissue stiffness is important for many neuromusculoskeletal conditions, but can be challenging. While ultrasound can measure a tissue's echogenicity (how it reflects sound waves), this is not directly pro…

Evidence of Connective Tissue Involvement in Acupuncture
Helene M Langevin, David L Churchill, Junru Wu, Gary J Badger, Jason A Yandow, James R Fox, Martin H KragResearchers investigated the "needle grasp" phenomenon in acupuncture, where it becomes harder to pull a needle out after manipulation. They hypothesized this is caused by connective tissue winding around the needle, ra…
