Patellar Tendon Repair With Gracilis Autograft Augmentation and Anchor Fixation
Abstract Patellar tendon rupture is a severe injury that disrupts knee extensor continuity and requires prompt surgical management. Although primary repair remains the standard treatment, isolated suture repair may be insufficient in cases of poor tissue quality or high mechanical demand, making augmentation necessary.

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 ...

Abstract This technical note describes a modified transtibial pullout repair for medial meniscus posterior root tear incorporating a barbed suture to improve fixation strength and load distribution. The technique combines 2 simple sutures placed near the torn root with a circumferential barbed suture passed through the posteromedial meniscocapsular ...

Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata
ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

What drives animal responses to high severity fire? The role of functional traits
ABSTRACT Fire regimes are changing worldwide, with increases in the frequency, extent, and severity of fires posing growing risks to biodiversity. Fire severity – the degree of habitat alteration following fire – strongly influences both immediate survival and long‐term recovery of fauna.
