Since the start of my residency in 2009 and after joining the Rehab Team in 2019, I've had the daily privilege of working with Physical Therapists. They are the unwavering work force of our team. They are the people that literally lift you when you fall; they are the support in every fracture; they are the soothing hand that runs through every pain; and they are the hope that pushes you to take that first step after a stroke. To all the Physical Therapists around the world, maraming maraming salamat.

Ten-year follow-up data from the FIDELITY study of arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) in patients with symptoms of degenerative meniscal tear found the procedure offered no benefits and was even associated with worse outcomes.

The FIDELITY study used sham APM as the placebo control. The study involved 146 patients, aged 35-65 years, who were randomized during exploratory arthroscopy either to have damaged or loose parts of the meniscus removed, or to a sham procedure where the surgeon mimicked the movements of surgery without removing any tissue.

The 1-year data found no differences between the sham and real surgery groups in patient-evaluated functional outcomes, health-related quality of life, or knee pain after exercise. https://mdsc.pe/4tXumot

150 minutes of moderate physical activity every week is the recommended amount for a healthy heart. But this is one case where more might be better. Research showed that adults who exercised two to four times the recommended amount might lower their risk of dying by as much as 31%.
