Abstract

Background: We want to learn more about inter-limb asymmetries in Achilles tendinopathy patients since they have been linked to increased injury risk.
Materials and Methods: We evaluated the effects of a 8-week exercise intervention on inter-limb asymmetries of mechanical, material, and morphological musculoskel et al. characteristics and function in patients with Achilles tendinopathy (n = 44). Additionally, we investigated the relationship between asymmetry reductions and better patient-reported outcomes.
Results: At baseline, tendons with tendinopathy showed decreased tendon force (p = 0.013), decreased tendon stress (p 0.0001), greater tendon cross-sectional area (p 0.001), and higher intratendinous (p = 0.022) and tendon overall (p = 0.018) vascularization. PRE-to-POST asymmetry comparisons for the high-load group showed an increase in asymmetry for the counter-movement jump.
Conclusion: The tendinopathic appendage contrasts from the asymptomatic leg while helpful activity mediations meaningfully affect imbalances.
