Continuous Sewing Machine‐Like Suture Provides Higher Failure and Yield Load Compared to Traditional Techniques for Meniscal Root Repair in a Biomechanical Porcine Model

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the biomechanical performance of the sewing machine‐like suture (SMS) technique against three established techniques (two cinch‐loop (TCL), modified Mason‐Allen (MMA), and double Mason‐Allen (DMA)) for transtibial pull‐out repair of posterior medial meniscal root tear (PMMRT) in a porcine model.

Incremental Modal Pushover Analysis (IMPA) for bridges

open access: yes, 2021
In recent years, many research activities were undertaken to develop a reliable and practical analysis procedure to identify the safety level of existing structure. There are many literatures available on the seismic evaluation procedures of buildings using nonlinear static analysis (pushover) instead of performing, as in the well known incremental ...

Heat Stress in Quail: Impacts on Health and Productivity, and Mitigation Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts physiological homeostasis in quail, inducing oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, and metabolic imbalance, which impair growth, reproduction, product quality, and welfare. Integrating nutritional, environmental, and genetic–epigenetic strategies enhances thermotolerance, sustains productivity, and supports climate‐smart quail ...

Trans‐Tendon Suture‐Bridge Knotless Proximal Pulley Repair With Bioinductive Patch Augmentation for High‐Grade Partial Hip Abductor Tendon Tears

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract This technical note describes a knotless trans‐tendon proximal‐pulley repair with distal suture‐bridge fixation and bioinductive collagen patch augmentation for high‐grade partial gluteus medius and minimus tears. The technique preserves intact tendon fibers, restores broad footprint compression, and supports biologic healing through a ...
