## Abstract The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the diabetic phenotype on the mechanical properties of the native patellar tendon and its enthesis. Diabetes was induced via intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin in Lewis rats. Control (__n__β=β18) and diabetic animals (__n
## Abstract Human patellar tendon stress (Ο), strain (Ξ΅), stiffness (__K__), and tensile or Young's modulus (__E__), are determined in vivo through voluntary isometric contractions monitored with Bβmode ultrasonography. The limitations in previous studies are: (1) they have generally not accounted
