Muscle-tendon morphomechanical properties of non-surgically treated Achilles tendon 1-year post-rupture

Ra'ad M. Khair et al.

Summary: Achilles tendon rupture can change the stiffness and length of the tendon, affecting its function in force transmission and energy storage and recovery. The study found that the post-rupture tendon was longer and thicker, with changes in the medial gastrocnemius. Although the stiffness of non-surgically treated and uninjured tendons was similar 1-year post rupture, there was still a plantar flexion strength deficit, possibly due to the shorter medial gastrocnemius fascicle length.

Non-uniform displacement within ruptured Achilles tendon during isometric contraction

Ra'ad M. Khair et al.

Summary: This study investigated tendon displacement patterns in non-surgically treated patients 14 months after acute Achilles tendon rupture, classifying patients into groups based on their Achilles tendon displacement patterns. Results showed significant differences in tendon displacement patterns between different groups, which may be attributed to anatomical variations and recovery methods.

Age-related changes to triceps surae muscle-subtendon interaction dynamics during walking

William H. Clark et al.

Summary: The intensity of push-off is controlled largely by the triceps surae (TS) muscles, with older adults showing more uniform Achilles tendon (AT) tissue displacements and reduced TS muscle length change heterogeneity compared to young adults. These muscle-level differences may negatively impact push-off intensity, as evidenced by variations in the correlation between TS muscle length change heterogeneity and mechanical output across walking tasks. The capacity for sliding between subtendons may facilitate independent TS muscle actuation in young adults, but may restrict that actuation in older adults, contributing to reduced push-off intensity.

Neuromechanical activation of triceps surae muscle remains altered at 3.5 years following open surgical repair of acute Achilles tendon rupture

Markus Wenning et al.

Summary: The study assessed neuromuscular activation patterns following Achilles tendon rupture and repair, finding complex changes in muscle activation 3.5 years post-surgery, possibly due to increased recruitment of type II muscle fibers. These alterations aim to maximize force output while protecting the previously injured tendon, with implications for muscle fatigue.
