Welcome to the podcast review of JISAKOS volume 1, issue 4. See full issue here: http://jisakos.bmj.com/content/1/4 Social Media Editor, Peter D. Fabricant, MD, MPH, reviews this issue, including the introductory Editorial by Editor-in-Chief Prof. Niek van Dijk, MD, PhD, which focuses on the diathesis between increased physical activity that might cause the typical “wear and tear” of osteoarthritis as it contrasts to the health benefits of physical exercise, including those benefits to the joints. See Editorial here: http://jisakos.bmj.com/content/1/4/183 Other topics include neuromuscular balance training to prevent ankle sprains, state of the art reviews on knee osteoarthritis and stress fractures in football (soccer), and a review of the classic 1908 article by Stieda in which the post-traumatic Pellegrini-Stieda lesion on the medial aspect of the knee was first described.
