The influence of barefoot and shod running on Triceps-surae muscle strain characteristics [PDF]
The aim of the current investigation was to determine the effects of barefoot and shod running on the kinematics of the Triceps-Surae muscle group. Twelve male participants ran at 4.0 m.s-1 (± 5%) in both barefoot and shod conditions.

The schematic diagram delineates the chondroprotective effects of Ca‐bMSN in OA models. The upper portion of the diagram depicts the synthesis process of Ca‐bMSN. The lower section illustrates the post‐injection of Ca‐bMSN in joint cavity, catalpol released and subsequently mediates the reduction of oxidative stress, ECM catabolism, apoptosis, and ...

Abstract Rotator cuff tear including SSP (Supraspinatus) tendon tears are a very common and often painful condition with several therapeutic options such as tendon repair. Reflected by the high retear rates, the preoperative selection of patients suitable for surgery or conservative treatment, which often yields comparable results, remains difficult ...

Antagonist Inhibition Control in Redundant Tendon-driven Structures Based on Human Reciprocal Innervation for Wide Range Limb Motion of Musculoskeletal Humanoids [PDF]
The body structure of an anatomically correct tendon-driven musculoskeletal humanoid is complex, and the difference between its geometric model and the actual robot is very large because expressing the complex routes of tendon wires in a geometric model is very difficult. If we move a tendon-driven musculoskeletal humanoid by the tendon wire lengths of

Influence of Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm on the mechanical strength of soft tissue allograft
Abstract We sought to determine the impact of bacterial inoculation and length of exposure on the mechanical integrity of soft tissue tendon grafts. Cultures of Staphylococcus epidermidis were inoculated on human tibialis posterior cadaveric tendon to grow biofilms. A low inoculum in 10% growth medium was incubated for 30 min to replicate conditions of

Effect of Estrogen on Musculoskeletal Performance and Injury Risk. [PDF]
Estrogen has a dramatic effect on musculoskeletal function. Beyond the known relationship between estrogen and bone, it directly affects the structure and function of other musculoskeletal tissues such as muscle, tendon, and ligament.
