Automatic Tracking of the Muscle Tendon Junction in Healthy and Impaired Subjects using Deep Learning [PDF]
, 2020 Recording muscle tendon junction displacements during movement, allows separate investigation of the muscle and tendon behaviour, respectively. In order to provide a fully-automatic tracking method, we employ a novel deep learning approach to detect the position of the muscle tendon junction in ultrasound images.

Comprehending finger flexor tendon pulley system using a computational analysis [PDF]
J Biomech Eng. Nov 2021, 2020 Existing prosthetic/orthotic designs are rarely based on kinetostatics of a biological finger, especially its tendon-pulley system (TPS) which helps render a set of extraordinary functionalities. Studies on computational models or cadaver experiments do exist.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells Empowering Tendon Regenerative Therapies
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019 Tendon tissues have limited healing capacity. The incidence of tendon injuries and the unsatisfactory functional outcomes of tendon repair are driving the search for alternative therapeutic approaches envisioning tendon regeneration.

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019 Designing biomimetic artificial tendons requires a thorough, data-based understanding of the tendon's inner material properties. The current work exploits viscoelastic experimental observations at the tendon fascicle scale, making use of mechanical and ...

Reparative and Maladaptive Inflammation in Tendon Healing
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 Tendon injuries are common and debilitating, with non-regenerative healing often resulting in chronic disease. While there has been considerable progress in identifying the cellular and molecular regulators of tendon healing, the role of inflammation in ...

The use of 5‐fluorouracil in the prevention of tendon adhesions: A systematic review
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, 2020 Background This systematic review aims to study the effectiveness of 5‐fluorouracil (5FU) in the reduction of tendon adhesions postsurgical repair. Method A systematic review was performed involving four databases, Cochrane, PubMed, MEDLINE, and Embase ...

Modeling and parametric optimization of 3D tendon-sheath actuator system for upper limb soft exosuit [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 This paper presents an analysis of parametric characterization of a motor driven tendon-sheath actuator system for use in upper limb augmentation for applications such as rehabilitation, therapy, and industrial automation. The double tendon sheath system, which uses two sets of cables (agonist and antagonist side) guided through a sheath, is considered

Scientific Reports, 2017 To date, the cell and molecular mechanisms regulating tendon healing are poorly understood. Here, we establish a novel model of tendon regeneration using neonatal mice and show that neonates heal via formation of a ‘neo-tendon’ that differentiates along ...
