Mechanical strength evaluation of treated tendons 14 weeks post-surgery. Young’s modulus and ultimate strength are presented for the positive control group (normal tendons), the treatment group using scaffold only (SC), and the treatment group using scaffold combined with platelet-rich plasma (SP). Data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation.

Group	Young’s modulus (MPa)	Ultimate strength (N)
Positive control	71.01 ± 10.75	46.75 ± 4.59
SC (Scaffold)	15.27 ± 4.41	41.42 ± 14.90
SP (Scaffold + Platelet-Rich Plasma)	20.90 ± 7.53	48.91 ± 15.56
