Analysis of Mechanoreceptors and Free Nerve Endings in the Lateral Collateral Ligament of the Elbow Using Immunofluorescence and Confocal Microscopy
The lateral collateral ligament (LCL) of the elbow is an essential static stabilizer against varus and posterolateral rotatory forces. It is hypothesized that injury to the LCL might impair elbow proprioception, although direct evidence for this impairment remains limited and warrants further investigation. This study aimed to describe the morphology and distribution of mechanoreceptors and free nerve endings within the LCL.

This study evaluated and compared clinical outcomes and return-to-sport rates in TSA patients following standard rehabilitation protocol and RSA patients following fast rehabilitation protocol.
Steps for Treating a Deep Cut Finger
Treating a deep cut on your finger may require medical help if there is damage to the skin, tendons, ligaments, or bone. Other minor injuries, like shallow paper cuts, can quickly be treated at home with basic first aid.
SLAP Tear of the Shoulder
A SLAP tear is an injury to the labrum, the cartilage rim that surrounds the socket of the shoulder joint. SLAP stands for "superior labrum anterior and posterior," meaning that the tear occurs at the front of the upper arm where the bicep tendon connects to the shoulder.1
