Effects of short-term immobilization versus continuous passive motion on the biomechanical and biochemical properties of the rabbit tendon

Little work has been done on the effect that continuous passive motion (CPM) may have on maintaining the mechanical and biochemical characteristics of tendons deprived of normal load-bearing stimuli. This study compared changes in mechanical properties and collagen concentrations of the tibialis ant...
