Traumatic rupture of the triceps tendon : a case report and literature review [PDF]
, 2009 Rupture of the distal tendon of triceps brachii muscle, producing loss of active elbow extension, is rarely encountered. Careful examination is needed at the time of presentation.

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Elevated C‐reactive protein (CRP) levels in systemic sclerosis (SSc) have been linked with severe disease and worse survival, but the role of platelet levels remains unclear. This study examined whether elevated platelet levels, CRP levels, or both are associated with disease severity, progression, and survival in SSc.

Tendon mechanobiology in the context of tendon biofabrication
Frontiers in Bioengineering and BiotechnologyTendons are often affected by injuries or tendinopathies, resulting in serious and long-lasting impairments. The repair capacity is very low with a high risk of rerupture. Nevertheless, early, moderate and intermittent functional training adapted to the healing process has been shown to support tendon healing.

Automated Hand Flexor Tendon–Thickness Measurement in Systemic Sclerosis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) can affect flexor tendons, contributing to hand function problems and reduced quality of life. Tendon changes are currently assessed with ultrasonography and measured manually, a time‐consuming process prone to interobserver variability.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Here, we establish a low‐dose liquid‐phase electron microscopy workflow for real‐time observation of biological processes in hydrated conditions. Beam damage is reduced by imaging only 20% of the pixels and reconstructing the complete image using an inpainting algorithm.

Impact of COVID-19 on patellar tendon properties over the first year after infection
Scientific ReportsThis study aimed to examine the impact of infection severity and associated inactivity on patellar tendon health following COVID-19. Seventy participants were divided into three groups: moderate COVID-19 (n = 22), severe COVID-19 (n = 18), and control (n
