Changes in ultrasound imaging of joints, entheses, bursae and tendons 24 and 48 h after adjusted weight training.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Joint effusion and enthesitis are common ultrasound findings in rheumatic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or spondyloarthritis. However, changes of joints and entheses were not only observed in patients but also in physically active individuals and athletes.

Objectives

The purpose of this study was to evaluate joint, entheseal, bursal and tendon musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) findings in large and medium joints of young healthy individuals after completing a standardised weight training.

Design

This is a prospective cohort study.

Methods

MSUS examinations of large- and medium-sized joints, and related entheseal sites, bursae and tendons were performed on young healthy individuals (ages 18-30 years). Before, 24 and 48 h after completing 1 h o
