Summary: Endoscopic Whiteside transfer technique shows moderate results in patients with massive gluteus medius tear, with some experiencing good outcomes while others having early failure or limited improvement in symptoms.

Summary: This study used shear wave elastography to evaluate the stiffness of muscles in patients with iliotibial band syndrome. The results showed significant differences in the stiffness of the lateral thigh muscles in patients compared to healthy controls, indicating a potentially larger role of hip abductor muscles in the pathophysiology of ITBS.

Summary: This study investigated the acute effects of elbow crutch locomotion on gluteus medius (GM) activity during stair ascending. The results showed that GM activation increased with the ipsilateral use of crutches, using two crutches and three points, and when all the load depended on one limb. GM activation decreased with contralateral use and in the unload limb.

Summary: This study assessed the effects of fresh beef tumbling without brine inclusion combined with aging on the quality, biochemical attributes, and sensory scores of sirloin muscles. The results showed that tumbling combined with aging can improve tenderness of certain sirloin muscles, although it may also have some impacts on flavor and juiciness.

Summary: The study aimed to report the mid-term follow-up results of endoscopic gluteus medius repair combined with a systematic release of the gluteus maximus reflected tendon. The surgical method was found to significantly improve hip function and reduce pain in patients with a full-thickness tear of the gluteus medius tendon, and no major complications were reported.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of gluteus maximus flap transfer (GMT) surgery on gait and its impact on hip abduction moment. The results showed no improvement in hip abduction moment after the surgery at the group level. However, speed and cadence improved postoperatively.

Summary: Gluteus medius tears are commonly caused by chronic degeneration and present with lateral hip pain and weakness in abduction. Surgical intervention is indicated for failed conservative treatment and imaging studies showing a torn tendon. Both open and endoscopic techniques are effective for treating gluteus medius tears, but endoscopic techniques have fewer postoperative complications.

Summary: This study investigated the clinical outcome of free myocutaneous tensor fasciae latae (TFL) flap reconstruction for sternal defects. It found that the procedure had few complications and resulted in satisfactory functional and aesthetic outcomes at the donor-site.

Summary: Consumption of HMB increased the percentage of type IIA and IIA/X muscle fibers in the GM, but did not improve athletic performance in horses. Additionally, HMB supplementation did not have measurable effects on the biomechanical properties of the muscles in horses.

Summary: The study found that gluteus medius activation was higher compared to tensor fascia latae in all three strengthening exercises. The hip abductor machine seems to be the best exercise choice for preferentially activating the gluteus medius while minimizing tensor fascia latae activation.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the relative torque contributions of the gluteus maximus and hamstrings in different testing positions. Results showed that the gluteus maximus had the highest torque contribution at 45 degrees of hip flexion, while the hamstrings had the highest contribution at full knee extension. The gluteus maximus/hamstring torque contribution ratio was highest at 0 degrees of hip extension and 90 degrees of knee flexion.

Summary: This study describes a simplified technique for abductor repair using the transfer of gluteus maximus (Gmax) and tensor fascia lata (TFL) in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although patients reported improved function after the reconstruction, there was still mild to moderate limping. Further research is needed to determine the efficacy of this technique and patient reported outcomes.

Summary: This study describes two new signs, weak gluteus maximus (weak GM) and weak iliopsoas with normal gluteus maximus (weak iliopsoas with normal GM), for diagnosing functional weakness of the lower limb. The tests involved Medical Research Council (MRC) examinations of the iliopsoas and GM in the supine position. These signs showed high sensitivity and specificity in differentiating between functional weakness (FW) and structural weakness (SW).

Summary: Tears in the gluteus medius and minimus tendons are a common cause of greater trochanter pain syndrome (GTPS). Non-surgical treatment includes physical rehabilitation, medications, and injections. Surgical treatment can be performed endoscopically, leading to significant improvement in functional scores and pain with a lower complication rate.

Summary: This study investigated the instantaneous muscle moment arm (IMMA) of the hip extensor M. gluteus medius in 18 species of caviomorph rodents. The results showed that scansorial species had the largest IMMA, while fossorial and cursorial species had smaller IMMA values. At larger extension angles, cursorial species displayed the second-largest IMMA after scansorial species. The results of the osteological in-lever matched the IMMA results only at larger hip extension angles, suggesting that modeling the IMMA provides more nuanced insights into adaptations of musculoskeletal lever-arm systems than this osteological proxy.
