Passive elongation of muscle fascicles in human muscles with short and long tendons [PDF]
This study tested the hypothesis that the ratio of changes in muscle fascicle and tendon length that occurs with joint movement scales linearly with the ratio of the slack lengths of the muscle fascicles and tendons.

The Coracohumeral Ligament and Its Fascicles: An Anatomic Study
Background: The coracohumeral ligament (CHL) is inserted in the coracoid process, from which it extends laterally and caudally, blending with the tendinous insertions of the subscapularis muscle and the supraspinatus muscle, with a third intermediate ...

Unravelling the Distinct Phenotype and Mechanosensitive Properties of Different Tendon Cell Populations. [PDF]
Tendon interfascicular and fascicular matrix cells are isolated and cultured, revealing distinct phenotypes and mechanosensitive responses. Interfascicular matrix cells exhibit marked stiffness‐dependent phenotypic plasticity, whereas fascicular matrix cells remain comparatively stable.

Anatomic All-Inside Repair of the Anteroinferior and Posterosuperior Popliteomeniscal Fascicles for Hypermobile Lateral Meniscus. [PDF]
Abstract Hypermobile lateral meniscus refers to abnormal mobility of an otherwise morphologically normal meniscus without obvious tears, causing lateral knee pain due to catching or locking of the lateral meniscus during flexion. The most common cause is rupture or elongation of the popliteomeniscal fascicles (PMFs), which connect the lateral meniscus ...

Quantified Morphology of the Cervical and Subdiaphragmatic Vagus Nerves of Human, Pig, and Rat
It is necessary to understand the morphology of the vagus nerve (VN) to design and deliver effective and selective vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) because nerve morphology influences fiber responses to electrical stimulation.

Effect of Transducer Orientation on Errors in Ultrasound Image-Based Measurements of Human Medial Gastrocnemius Muscle Fascicle Length and Pennation. [PDF]
Ultrasound imaging is often used to measure muscle fascicle lengths and pennation angles in human muscles in vivo. Theoretically the most accurate measurements are made when the transducer is oriented so that the image plane aligns with muscle fascicles ...

Vocal Cord Amyloidosis in a Middle-aged Female: A Rare Clinical Entity [PDF]
Primary laryngeal amyloidosis is a rare disorder, accounting for approximately 1% of all benign laryngeal lesions. The authors, here, report the case of a 55-year-old female who presented to the Otorhinolaryngology Department with complaints of change in
