Addressing muscle–tendon imbalances in adult male athletes with personalized exercise prescription based on tendon strain
PurposeImbalances of muscle strength and tendon stiffness can increase the operating strain of tendons and risk of injury. Here, we used a new...
-
Biomechanically and biochemically functional scaffold for recruitment of endogenous stem cells to promote tendon regeneration
Tendon regeneration highly relies on biomechanical and biochemical cues in the repair microenvironment. Herein, we combined the decellularized bovine...
-
Tendon length estimates are influenced by tracking location
PurposeMeasurement of medial gastrocnemius (MG) tendon length using ultrasonography (US) requires the muscle–tendon junction (MTJ) to be located....
