Background: Pulvertaft Weave (PTW) is an established method of tenorrhapy in tendon transfers. Previous studies have suggested that a Side-to-Side (STS) tenorrhapy is easier to perform has the same advantages and has greater load to failure, ultimate...

Journal Article
Wang, J., Roberts, S., Kuiper, J., Zhang, W., Garcia, J., Cui, Z., & Wright, K. (2020). Characterization of regional meniscal cell and chondrocyte phenotypes and chondrogenic differentiation with histological analysis in osteoarthritic donor-matched tissues. Scientific reports, 10, Article 21658. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-78757-6

Meniscus degeneration is closely related to the progression of knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, there is currently a lack of quantitative and objective metrics to assess OA meniscal cell phenotypes. In this study we investigated the phenotypic mark...
