A: partial thickness tendon tear; B: full-thickness tear with no retraction of tendon; C: full-thickness tendon tear with retraction; PA med.: medial pennation angle; median with ( ) minimum and maximum values. If superscript letters are different, it indicates statistically significant (P < 0.001) difference between the superficial, middle, and deep parts of specimens within the same tear category. *P = 0.163 middle and deep; **P = 0.026 superficial and deep, P = 0.021 middle and deep; ***P = 0.047 superficial and middle, P = 0.002 superficial and deep, and P = 0.419 middle and deep; P = 0.208 middle and deep. †Statistical analysis was not conducted due to sample size. |
