Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), a widely used synthetic polymer in daily life, has become a major source read more of post-consumer waste due to its complex molecular structure and resistance to natural degradation, which has posed a significant threat to the global ecological environment and human health.Current PET-processing methods include ph
Understanding the impact of third-party species on pairwise coexistence.
The persistence of virtually every single species depends on both the presence of other species and the specific environmental conditions in a given location.Because in natural settings many of these conditions are unknown, research has been centered on finding the fraction of possible conditions (probability) leading to species coexistence.The foc
Arthroscopic In Situ Biceps Tenodesis Using a Double Loop-and-Tack Knotless Suture Anchor
The long tenga flip orb head biceps tendon is a common culprit of anterior shoulder pain and dysfunction that can be surgically treated with tenotomy or tenodesis.Many techniques exist for tenodesis.This article submits an arthroscopic technique using two loop-and-tack sutures and a knotless suture anchor to tenodese the long head biceps tendon in
