Histomorphological scores (Aström and Rausing [60], modified by Bosch et al. [45]). Mean histomorphological scores (± SD) for surgically induced SDFT lesions treated with AT-MSCs suspended in autologous inactivated serum (AT-MSC) and with autologous inactivated serum alone (control) 22 weeks after treatment. Total scores (green) include values from sub-scores for fibre structure (struct.), fibre alignment (align.), morphology (morph.) of tenocyte nuclei, variations (variat.) in cell density in cell density and vascularization (vascul.). Scores for structural (struct.) integrity and metabolic (metab.) activity summarize values from sub-scores displayed in blue and red, respectively. Scores and sub-scores did not differ between treatment modalities (p < 0.05). AT-MSC adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cell (Colour figure online)
