Does cryopreservation with glycerol improve the in vitro biomechanical characteristics of human patellar tendon allografts?
The results of this in vitro study demonstrated superior mechanical properties of cryopreserved grafts compared to frozen grafts within a preservation period of 9 months. Cryopreservation with glycerol solution might be used to further improve the quality of preserved soft-tissue allografts.
Physical activity is significantly reduced in young children with type 1 diabetes.
