Abstract

The effect of anterior cruciate healing on the uninjured ligament insertion site after enhanced suture repair with collagen‐platelet composites (CPC) has not yet been defined. In this study, we hypothesized that fibroblasts and osteoclasts would participate in generating histologic changes in insertion site morphology after transection and bioenhanced repair of the ACL, and that these changes would be age‐dependent. Skeletally immature, adolescent, and adult Yucatan mini‐pigs underwent ACL transection and bioenhanced suture repair. The histologic response to repair of the insertion site was evaluated at 1, 2, 4, and 15 weeks. In young and adolescent animals treated with bioenhanced suture repair with CPC, changes in the insertion site included: (1) fibroblastic proliferation with loss and return of collagen alignment in the fibrous zone; (2) osteoclastic resorption within fibrocartilage zones at 2–4 weeks; and (3) partial reappearance of fibrocartilage zones at 15 weeks. In adult animals; however, degenerative changes were noted by 15 weeks: (1) loss of parallel arrangement of collagen fibers in the fibrous zone; and (2) increasing disorganization and loss of columnation of chondrocytes in the fibrocartilage zone. These results suggest that fibroblasts and osteoclasts mediate histologic changes at the insertion site during bioenhanced suture repair of the ACL which may prevent insertion site degeneration, and that the magnitude of these changes may be a function of skeletal maturity. © 2011 Orthopaedic Research Society Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • In a porcine ACL rupture model, collagen-PRP composite augmentation displayed more advanced remodeling at the insertion site, hypercellularity and increased collagen organization at the fibrous zone.

    “The augmentation group displayed more advanced remodeling at the insertion site, hypercellularity and increased collagen organization at the fibrous zone.”

    From Molecular and Biologic Effects of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) in Ligament and Tendon Healing and Regeneration: A Systematic Review (2023) · cites this paper as [49]

    The Results (Histology Results; page not provided) report insertion-site remodeling, fibrous-zone hypercellularity, and increased collagen organization after bioenhanced repair in immature and adolescent pigs. The claim omits the age qualification: adult pigs showed little healing and insertion-site changes consistent with degeneration. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
