Open re-rupture of the Achilles tendon after surgical treatment
The rate of re-rupture of Achilles tendon after surgical treatment were reported to 1.7-5.6% previously. Re-rupture of Achilles tendon generally occurs subcutaneously.

Late fusion of deep learning and hand-crafted features for Achilles tendon healing monitoring [PDF]
Healing process assessment of the Achilles tendon is usually a complex procedure that relies on a combination of biomechanical and medical imaging tests. As a result, diagnostics remains a tedious and long-lasting task. Recently, a novel method for the automatic assessment of tendon healing based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging and deep learning was ...

The Fallacy in the Paradox of Achilles and the Tortoise [PDF]
Zeno's ancient paradox depicts a race between swift Achilles and a slow tortoise with a head start. Zeno argued that Achilles could never overtake the tortoise, as at each step Achilles arrived at the tortoise's former position, the tortoise had already moved ahead.

Acute Achilles tendon rupture is one of the most common tendon injuries in adults. We hypothesized that Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) can be used as biological augmentation for surgical treatment of acute Achilles tendon rupture.

Outcomes of remnant-preserving anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using Achilles tendon allografts: A retrospective analysis of tibial tunnel widening and complications. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose This study evaluates the outcomes of remnant‐preserving Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) using Achilles tendon allografts, focusing on tibial tunnel widening and complications. The primary research question is whether this technique results in significant tunnel widening and other complications.

Simultaneous Measurement Imputation and Outcome Prediction for Achilles Tendon Rupture Rehabilitation [PDF]
Achilles Tendon Rupture (ATR) is one of the typical soft tissue injuries. Rehabilitation after such a musculoskeletal injury remains a prolonged process with a very variable outcome. Accurately predicting rehabilitation outcome is crucial for treatment decision support.

Manipulation of Foot Strike and Footwear Increases Achilles Tendon Loading During Running
Background: The Achilles tendon is the most common site of tendon overuse injury in humans. Running with a forefoot strike pattern and in minimal shoes is a topic of recent interest, yet evidence is currently limited regarding the combined influence of ...

Anatomical morphometrics have been used to design and manufacture models of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon to bone insertion in vitro. This innovative approach can be used to design models of other enthesis regions with anatomical and clinical applicability.

An anatomical investigation of alkaptonuria: Novel insights into ochronosis of cartilage and bone
Examination of an alkaptonuria body highlights the susceptibility of all cartilage types and associated perichondrium to ochronotic pigmentation and the heterogeneity of ochronotic pigment distribution both within and between tissues. In joints, calcified cartilage pigments before non‐calcified cartilage.

An inverted pendulum with a springy control as a model of human standing [PDF]
The normal and the inverted pendulum continue to be one of the main physical models and metaphors in science. The inverted pendulum is also a classic study case in control theory. In this paper we consider a special demonstration version of the inverted pendulum which is controlled via a spring.
