Objective: This case presentation aims to highlight the challenges and outcomes associated with a partial tear of the Achilles tendon (AT) in an elite marathon runner. The objective was to restore tendon anatomy and optimize strength recovery through surgical intervention.
Method: We present the case of a marathon runner who suffered a partial AT tear and underwent an initial surgery that failed.
Article Synopsis
- - The fiddler crab species, unique to the west coast of Taiwan, has seen a decline in its natural habitats and populations due to human activities over the past 40 years.
- - Genetic analysis revealed that there is more genetic variation within local groups of crabs than between different groups, indicating high genetic diversity and connectivity through larval exchange in coastal waters.
- - Despite the high gene flow among populations, the species is at risk of extinction if current population declines continue, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring and habitat protection efforts.
