Prevalence of obesity and its association with dietary preferences among women in an urban area of Prayagraj
Authors: Singh Zoomi , Yadav Neelam
Published: November 2022

This study examined obesity prevalence among Prayagraj adult womenand to determine the relationship between women’s weight status and their eating habits and behaviours. The specific goals were to analyse the effects of participant demographic variables on BMI (body mass index) and the effects of participant dietary habits, eating behaviours, and practices on BMI. The anthropometric evaluation of chosen respondents included measurements of their height, weight, and body mass index. Utilizing well-constructed questionnaires, the meal frequency questionnaire approach was used to examine the eating/ nutritional habits of the participants. The findings revealed a high prevalence of overweight (11.1%), obesity grade-1 (36.1%) and obesity grade-2 (23.5%) were relatively high among the study participants. Normal weight participants were found to be (22.1%), while (7.2%) were underweight. In general, Prayagraj’s adult women have bad food habits. They are susceptible to chronic degenerative diseases because to their frequent consumption of energy-dense, nutrient-poor meals and sugar-sweetened beverages, as well as the absence of a range of nutritious items in their daily diets. In view of the rising incidence of obesity and food-related disorders, it is necessary to allow women to consume a healthier diet. To promote healthy eating habits among women, they include effective public health efforts such as food literacy courses.

Published: November 2022

Breast cancer is a complex illness with many different types. In the Western world, it is the largest cause of cancer-related death among women. Utilizing quantitative real PCR, the expression levels of nine distinct miRNAs (let-7b, miR18b, miR-21, miR-25, miR-29c, miR-106b, miR375, miR505 and miR-150) were studied (qPCR). To isolate total RNA, researchers used 123 formaldehyde fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissues. TILs (tumor infiltrating lymphocytes) were examined in the samples to see if they had any predictive value. Let-7b’s biological activity in ER negative (MDAMB-231) and positive (MCF-7) breast cancer cell lines was investigated among the miRNAs tested. PNATM inhibitor was delivered for this purpose, and the associated miRNA was evaluated using qPCR. A wound healing experiment was used to investigate the transfected cells’ rate of proliferation and migratory potential. The presence of markers in the let-7b inhibited was examined using immunohistochemistry.

Dreams of Care and Consolation: Reflections of the Funeral Rites in the Dream Narratives
Authors: Ivanauskaitė - Šeibutienė Vita
Published: November 2022

The departed, their visits, requests, and warnings constitute the main theme in the dream narratives by the Lithuanians and other peoples. The article focuses on the relationship between folkloric dream narratives and ancient funeral rites.

The research sources include oneiric narratives by the Lithuanians and their neighboring Slavic peoples recorded from the end of the 19th to the beginning of the 21st century. Ethnographic accounts of ancient funeral ceremonies and funeral laments are also employed.

For a more thorough investigation, several oneiric motives undoubtedly related to the funeral rites have been selected, including taboos on inviting the deceased to appear in relatives’ dreams and advice for mothers not to weep excessively and not to mourn their departed children too much. Some recorded narratives depict the departed children appearing in dreams and begging not to cry for them so much, because they are drowning in tears, are soaking wet, or have difficulties with carrying vessels overflowing with their mother’s tears.

Another especially popular motive in the dream narratives is the requests from the deceased to “give back” some things that belong to them, or certain missing grave goods, e.g. shoes. The ethnographic funeral accounts from the 19th century repeatedly state the requirement for the deceased to be buried wearing shoes. If the shoes cannot be put on, they have to be placed inside the coffin. This ritual requirement finds its peculiar reflection in the dream narratives depicting the deceased appearing barefoot in dreams and demanding to “give back the shoes”. In order to fulfill this request, relatives of the departed person “send over” the missing shoes by burying them into the grave separately or by placing them into the coffin with another deceased. This particular focus on the shoes of the departed in the traditional culture (including the dream narratives) results from the notion of death as a journey.

Dream narratives are regarded in this study as an inherent part of the set of funeral rites. The author maintains that the narratives depicting the deceased manifesting in dreams and requesting that some things are returned to them, or begging relatives to stop weeping and mourning, in fact testify that some rituals have not been performed in full or have been performed improperly, thus thwarting the clear separation of the deceased from the world of the living. In turn, responses of the dreamers that are also described in these narratives embody a symbolic continuation of the ritual until it is finally completed.

Authors: Grossar L , Hoffman I , Sokal E , Stéphenne X , Witters P
Published: November 2022

Background and study aims: Liver abscesses are rare in the Western pediatric population and data on predisposing factors and etiology are scarce. We aimed to describe predisposing factors, microbiological characteristics, and treatment.

Patients and methods: Retrospective analysis of children admitted to two tertiary care hospitals in Belgium from 1 January 1996 to 31 December 2019. We analyzed clinical features, predisposing factors, imaging characteristics, microbiological data, treatment, and outcome in children with a liver abscess and compared these data with the literature.

Results: We collected 24 cases with a male to female ratio of 1.4 and a median age of 3.2 years at time of diagnosis. Survival was 95.8%. Invasive culture specimens were obtained in 83.3% and showed growth of bacteria in 55%. Parenteral antibiotics were administered before invasive culture sampling in 80%. Liver abscesses were cryptogenic in four (16.7%) patients. Hepatobiliary disease was the most prevalent predisposing factor (n = 6; 25%), followed by recent antineoplastic therapy for malignancies (n = 5; 20.8%), intra-abdominal surgical pathology (n = 4; 16.7%) and umbilical venous catheters (n = 2; 8.3%). In two patients there was a parasitic origin (n = 2; 8.3%) and in one it was caused by Bartonellosis. There was no diagnosis of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) in our cohort.

Conclusions: Pediatric liver abscesses have a favorable outcome in the developed world. Whenever feasible, invasive abscess culture specimens should be obtained. In patients presenting with a cryptogenic liver abscess or atypical disease course, immunological workup should be ensured.

Authors: Van Overbeke L , van Dongen J
Published: November 2022

Background: Relieving dysphagia is the main goal of palliative care in advanced esophageal cancer. We aimed to evaluate the safety and clinical performance of the Niti-S esophageal double covered, anti-reflux stent (Taewoong Medical, Seoul, Korea) in inoperable carcinoma of the esophagus or gastric cardia.

Methods: This was a retrospective patient registry/post-market clinical follow-up study of all patients with esophageal malignant strictures undergoing self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) placement with the Niti-S Esophageal covered stent, double antireflux in a community hospital (AZ St Maarten Mechelen, Belgium) between March 2013 and July 2021.

Results: In twenty-nine patients, thirty self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) were placed. The median dysphagia score before stent placement was 3 and 0 after stent placement (p < 0.001). Stent migration did not occur. Two patients (7%) had new onset reflux symptoms. The most common adverse event was retrosternal pain (5 patients, 17%). One patient (3%) had recurrent dysphagia due to proximal tumoral overgrowth and two patients (7%) because of proximal benign tissue overgrowth. There were no perforations, fistula formations or episodes of food impaction.

Conclusion: The Niti-S esophageal double covered, antireflux stent (Taewoong Medical, Seoul, Korea) is an effective and safe treatment option for malignant esophageal stenosis.

Authors: Düzenli T , Kiyak M
Published: November 2022

Question: A 35-year-old male with a history of HIV infection presented in our department for endoscopy with the complaints of dyspepsia and epigastric pain. Endoscopy revealed flat, maculopapular, reddish or purplish patchy nodular lesions, with different sizes and shapes, involv- ing both the duodenum and stomach (Figure 1 A-B). There was no sign of complications such as hemorrhage, perforation or obstruction. Physical examination re- vealed that the patient had also purple patchy cutaneous lesions (Figure 2). What is the diagnosis?

Answer: Histological assessment from the maculopapular and nodular lesions in endoscopic and cutaneous biopsies revealed the diagnosis as Kaposi sarcoma (KS). KS is a low-grade vascular tumor caused by human herpes virus type 8. KS manifests primarily as a cutaneous disorder, with visceral involvement considered to occur subsequently. Gastrointestinal involvement of KS is rare and most commonly clinically silent. AIDS-related KS that is the most common form of KS in the USA and Europe and the most common malignancy in patients with AIDS. GI involvement by KS is a rare endoscopic finding, still scarcely characterized in the literature (1). In conclusion, involvement of the gastrointestinal tract by KS is often asymptomatic, has multiple endoscopic appearances, and a high diagnostic suspicion is needed in this setting.

One Badiou? Parodies of Philosophy
Authors: Lezra Jacques
Published: November 2022

Alain Badiou’s Seminar: The One – Descartes, Plato, Kant (1983-1984) inaugurates "The Seminar," the collection of transcribed and edited seminars that Badiou chose for publication from the sessions he held over his career. To its place opening "The Seminar" other, perhaps more important functions should be added, however. The Seminar: The One serves, with the companion seminar on the Infinite (1984-1985), as a bridge between Badiou’s Theory of the Subject (1982) and the work for which he is best known, Being and Event (L'Être et l'Événement, 1988; English translation, 2005).1 (His play Incident at Antioch, whose first drafts are written during the years that Badiou holds the seminars on The One and The Infinite, builds another, rather different, bridge.) At once quite technical and rather chatty, The One – Descartes, Plato, Kant offers a genealogy for two decisive steps in Badiou’s thought: his description and his axiomatization of the operation “counts-as-one.” It also – rather against the grain of these two steps; inchoately, controversially – offers a tentative engagement with the dangerous mode of parody.

Published: November 2022

Desde el artículo seminal de Landry y Bourhis (1997) y especialmente a partir del número monográfico coordinado por Gorter (2006), el estudio del Paisaje Lingüístico (PL) o de los signos escritos emplazados en el paisaje urbano ha despertado creciente interés en el campo de la sociolingüística y disciplinas conexas. Los estudios del PL en España se centran sobre todo en la convivencia de lenguas españolas y foráneas, pero menos han sido los estudios centrados en el análisis de la lengua de signos monolingües en castellano, y en este caso sobre todo se ha estudiado la presencia de variedades americanas y los procedimientos de formación de palabras presentes (Pons 2011, Sáez 2015), así como otras idiosincrasias dialectales hispanoamericanas (Castillo / Sáez, 2012). Un caso particularmente llamativo es el de los diminutivos, que proponemos estudiar en esta ocasión. Para ello se analizará un corpus de 40 fotografías realizadas con el criterio de que contengan diminutivos, y registradas de manera serendípica mediante cámaras digitales y móviles en las calles y supermercados de Madrid entre 2017 y 2020. Según los datos obtenidos, clasificaremos los casos de diminutivos según las categorías de uso interactivo, lexicalización y branding, y reflexionaremos sobre sus funciones discursivas.
Desarrollo Sostenible y Unión Europea: los términos de la política de cooperación tras la adopción de la Agenda 2030

La Unión Europea es uno de los principales actores en materia de desarrollo sostenible. Tras la adopción de la Agenda 2030, ha puesto en marcha múltiples acciones que demuestran su compromiso con los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible. Pero con anterioridad a la adopción de la Resolución 70/1 de la Asamblea de Naciones Unidas, la Unión Europea ya se había ocupado de estos temas. De las diversas tareas realizadas por la Unión, se analizan en este trabajo las más relevantes con fin de identificar en qué medida ha contribuido al cumplimiento de la Agenda 2030. A tal efecto, destaca el Consenso Europeo de desarrollo que encarna el marco de acción general para el logro de los objetivos y metas de la Agenda 2030.
La nueva Comunidad Política Europea y la reconstrucción del continente más allá de la Unión Europea, ¿un déjà vu, político?
Authors: Barbulescu Iordan Gheorghe
Published: November 2022

Emanuel Macron, presidente de Francia, en su comparecencia ante el Parlamento Europeo el 9 de mayo de 2002 habló sobre un nuevo instrumento complementario/una nueva estrategia complementaria y no sustitutivo/sustitutiva aplicable a los países candidatos a la Unión Europea y lo llamó Comunidad Política Europea. En este trabajo mostramos que la situación actual del continente europeo es similar a la existente con la caída del Muro de Berlín y que, en aquella ocasión, la Unión Europea desarrolló dos estrategias para su ampliación hacia Países de Europa Central y Oriental (PECO). Una denominada “preadhesión”, con el fin de que estos países lograran la adhesión formal a la Unión. Otra denominada “Espacio Político Europeo”, con el fin de conseguir una integración paralela y progresiva de los mismos en las otras organizaciones democráticas occidentales, como el Consejo de Europa, la Organización para la Seguridad y la Cooperación en Europa (OSCE) o la Organización del Tratado del Atlántico Norte (OTAN). En este sentido, se encuentran similitudes entre lo que pasó en aquel momento y lo que pasa ahora con la Comunidad Política Europea. Se trata de demostrar que lo que sirvió hace 30 años a los PECO, pueden servir ahora a los países de los Balcanes Occidentales (Serbia, Montenegro, Macedonia del Norte, Albania Bosnia-Herzegovina y, algún día, Kosovo), y a los países que funcionan bajo las reglas de la Política de Vecindad (Moldavia, Ucrania o Georgia).
La revolución 2021 de la Cooperación Europea al Desarrollo
Authors: Granell Francesc
Published: November 2022

En los Tratados fundacionales de la integración europea, solo se establecieron ayudas para los antiguos territorios coloniales franceses, belgas y holandeses. A partir del proceso de descolonización y el ingreso de Gran Bretaña en la Comunidad Europea se empezaron a configurar tratados específicos de ayuda a las excolonias. Los tratados de mayor duración fueron los Acuerdos de Lomé y los de Cotonou. Cada uno de estos acuerdos incluyó un Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo para los países de África, Caribe y el Pacífico (ACP), y para los Países y Territorios europeos de Ultramar (PTUM). A lo largo de los años, Europa ha ido ampliando sus instrumentos de cooperación, aumentando también el número de países beneficiarios de su ayuda, incluyendo incluso países del Telón de Acero. Después de años discutiendo si el Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo debía ser nutrido por aportaciones prorrateadas entre los estados miembros de la Unión Europea, o debía ser presupuestado, el Marco Financiero Plurianual 2021-2027 ha unificado todas las líneas de cooperación al desarrollo en el Presupuesto General de la Unión Europea. En los últimos años, la Unión Europea condiciona su cooperación al seguimiento de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de la Agenda 2030, algo que no hacen donantes emergentes como China y Rusia, que siguen condicionando sus ayudas a sus propios intereses, dejando en clara desventaja a la acción de la Unión Europea.

Authors: Filipčič Tjaša , Burin Maja , Leskošek Bojan
Published: November 2022

The purpose of a present study was to investigate the professional beliefs of Slovenian physical education teachers regarding the teaching of students with visual impairments in physical education. A selfadministered questionnaire was designed to examine teachers’beliefs. Participants, 131 Slovenian PE teachers, rated their professional beliefs on a fivepoint Likert scale. A factor analysis was conducted to examine the internal structure of the belief field. The results show that self-perceptions of their beliefs were complex and consisted of 7 factors, which together explained 33.7% of the cumulative variance. Teachers strongly believe that vocal information, colourful sports equipment, and tactical guides enable students with visual impairment to participate in physical education. Adapted methods, safety measures, and learning support assistants are also important, as is a positive attitude toward inclusion. The findings of the present study need to be incorporated into the future updating of PE teacher training programmes for teaching students with visual impairments.

Authors: Šporin Martin , Zerbo Šporin Dorjana
Published: November 2022

The number of older people (65+ years) in the European Union is expected to reach 130 million by 2050. Regular physical activity has considerable benefits for health and physical functioning in the elderly population. The aim of the study was to evaluate the amount and intensity of self-reported physical activity expressed as energy consumption in a sample of 131 older individuals (aged 83.8 ± 7.6 years, 69% women) living in nursing homes by using the Minnesota Leisure Time Physical Activity Questionnaire. 109 participants reported to perform leisure time physical activity. Only 7.6% of them fulfilled the criteria for low physical activity proposed by Fried et al. (2001). The median energy expenditure (168.5 (IRQ=128.6) kcal/day) also exceeded the cut-off points for low activity. 54% of the participants stated that they perform the so-called heavy physical activity determined in a questionnaire with an intensity code 6 kcal/min or above. The questionnaire-based findings regarding physical activity in nursing homes are in terms of frailty encouraging but they should be verified against a more objective method for physical activity evaluation such as the use of accelerometers.

The study aims to examine how the gender context is materialized at the national teams and federation level based on the experiences of elite Turkish female rugby players. The ethnographic research method was based on observation diaries and semistructured interviews with 18 elite women rugby players who were invited to the Turkish National Women's 7s Rugby Team. The findings indicated a main theme and two sub-theme as “Conditions that need to be changed” and “Conditions that need to be maintained”. The first sub-theme consisted of obstacles caused by the under-representation and gender issues level, while the second indicates the importance of women staff in women's national teams and respect for private life choices. Playing rugby in Turkey is built on the gender roles determined by the society, reflected in the federations that are the main authority of sports environments. These reflections are reconstructed by the federation and transform into various practices that are reflected again in sports environments.

in sport training practice. The aim of this study was to establish whether basketball coaches are capable of uniformly (congruently) evaluating the release time, release angle, ball rotation and overall correctness of a jump shot by observing it with the naked eye. The study included a sample of 13 coaches (six with more and seven with less experience) whose task was to evaluate basketball jump shots made by young basketball players aged 15.1 (± 0.75) years on average from a distance of 4.5 m. The values of Pearson’s correlation coefficients and multiple correlation coefficients (generally above 0.7) as well as Cronbach’s alpha coefficients (above 0.9) and Kendall’s W coefficients of concordance (mostly below 0.1) show a high level of uniformity and congruence in the evaluations of the quality (correctness) of a shots as a whole and also individual shot parameters. Quite a lower level of uniformity and congruence can be established in the evaluations of the consistency of individual parameters. This applies to both groups of more experienced and less experienced coaches (raters). The results allowed an assessment that the levels of reliability of the evaluation of the group of at least six raters are appropriate for scientific research. Given the low values of the ICC (Inter Class Correlations), only equalling about 0.6, we can say that only one rater did not meet the scientific evaluation criteria.
Ակրեդիտիվով կատարվող հաշվարկների հիմնախնդիրները և դրանց լուծման ուղիները/Main Problems of Settlements by Letters of Credit and Ways of Their Solution
Authors: HARUTYUNYAN GAYANE
Published: November 2022

The development of economic
relations and, at the same time, their complication, leads to the
replacement of simple payment instruments with more complex
and interesting instruments. It is noteworthy that this fact creates
both opportunities and a number of problems.
One of the most complex payment instruments is a letter of
credit, settlements with which have both advantages and
disadvantages.
The paper reveals both economic and legal features of a
letter of credit. Much attention is paid to the essence of the letter
of credit, the legislative gaps related to the regulation of the
letter of credit, which were identified as a result of comparing
the relevant articles of the Civil Codes of the Republic of
Armenia and the Russian Federation.
As a result of studying foreign and domestic literature, the
legal nature of a letter of credit, the terms of payment under a
letter of credit, the types of obligations under a letter of credit,
and their features were identified.
ՀՀ հանքարդյունաբերության ոլորտի տնտեսական գնահատականը/Economic Evaluation of the Mining Sector in RA

Published: November 2022

The
aim of the article is to evaluate the macroeconomic indicators
affecting the mining sector in the republic, as well as the
development potential and opportunities of that sector. The
problems caused in the mining sector are systemic
(environmental, public health protection). Besides, the
assessment of the economic mechanisms of the sector requires
active cooperation of the state and society.
Mineral resources play an extremely important role in the
development of the economy of any country, finding application
in various branches of the economy. Currently, no matter how
much effort is directed towards the identification of renewable
energy sources and energy saving, secondary use of resources,
expansion of waste processing facilities and increase of
technological efficiency, on the other hand, issues related to
environmental protection continue to be raised on various
platforms.
The assessment between mining output, import, export and
exchange rate showed that the development potential of this
sector has a positive effect on foreign trade, regardless of
exchange rate fluctuations.
A Sequential Structural Equation Modeling of Patient Satisfaction and Compliance to Treatment

With the renewed concern about health care quality, there is a need for improved surveillance tools and focus on special age groups. While Structural Equation Model (SEM) is an important tool for surveillance, prediction and measuring intervention impact, the need to focus on reduction in bias necessitates the modification of SEM with Sequential Structural Equation Model (SSEM) to study some specific groups of health care delivery. This study formulated a model on patient satisfaction and compliance to treatment using SSEM of two stopping times with some exogenous, endogenous and mediating variables that generally influence health care delivery. SSEM modelling of Patient Satisfaction (PS) and Compliance to Treatment (CT) involves four latent variables (factors) and some manifest (dependent) variables. Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS) and Linear Structural Relationship (LISREL) 8.80 were adopted for the analysis. The study established that the fitted indices for the second stopping time meet the threshold rules in all cases when various fitting indices were used, and the fitted model result revealed an insignificant influence of PE on HS [R2 =0.012, F = 3.199, P >.05]. This indicates that PE contributed insignificantly to HS. Therefore, this study concluded that the procedure of sequential stopping time for hypothesised relationship showed that SSEM is useful in the drive towards quality patient health care and satisfaction. Hence, this confirmed that demographic variables are significant to patient experience.

Published: November 2022

INTRODUÇÃO: De acordo com a Organização Mundial de Saúde - OMS, a obesidade e o excesso de peso atingiram proporções epidêmicas em todo o mundo. Evidências apontam que o público infantil com excesso de peso tende a apresentar um pior índice de higiene oral e têm uma predisposição/Susceptibilidade à doença periodontal, quando comparados com os de peso considerados “normais” de acordo com faixa etária e biotipo. OBJETIVO: Este estudo objetiva esclarecer a associação entre obesidade infantil e complicações periodontais. MÉTODOS: O trabalho adota a forma de revisão bibliográfica onde foram escolhidas três bases de dados: Pubmed, Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS) e Google acadêmico. RESULTADOS: A literatura aponta que crianças com o excesso de peso apresentam uma pior higiene oral e têm uma predisposição à doença periodontal, quando comparados com os de peso normal; evidência que ajuda a explicar a aparente inflamação gengival de pacientes com sobrepeso. CONCLUSÃO: Essa revisão bibliográfica encontrou provas suficientes para estabelecer uma relação direta da obesidade infantil e doença periodontal, onde a maioria dos artigos apresentam essa relação; embora ressalte-se a necessidade de mais estudos.

INTRODUÇÃO: O presente trabalho demonstra a importância da matemática na vida dos alunos. Ouvir alunos falando que a matemática é uma disciplina terrível é algo muito comum, mas não era para ser, até por se tratar da única disciplina que trata do exato. Ao se pensar no ensino da matemática, percebe-se que um dos grandes desafios é estimular os alunos para que desenvolvam autonomia e segurança na realização das atividades escolares e cotidianas. OBJETIVO: Ensinar de forma descontraída contribuindo para uma melhor aprendizagem e absorção de conteúdo dos componentes curriculares de matemática lecionada aos alunos do 9° ano (8° serie) do ensino fundamental II em uma escola particular de Belém-PA. Incentivando o desenvolvimento do raciocínio lógico e abstrato através de dinâmicas de grupo, trabalhando questões cognitivas desses alunos como eixo socioemocional. MÉTODOS: Este estudo foi elaborado a partir de casos de vários questionamentos, pois foi observado que alunos de escolas públicas e particulares consideram a Matemática como uma disciplina difícil de ser compreendida. Os sujeitos foram alunos do 9° ano (8° série) com idades entre 14 e 15 anos. Que apresentam dificuldades em assimilar/compreender os conteúdos da disciplina de matemática. RESULTADOS: Essa disciplina é responsável por altos índices de reprovação dos educandos, tanto no Ensino Fundamental como no Ensino Médio, sendo responsável, muitas vezes, pela evasão escolar. Com isso elaboramos ações/estratégias que podem ser feitas como formas de contribuir para uma melhor aprendizagem/ absorção dos conteúdos da matemática. CONCLUSÃO: A proposta de intervenção lançada, busca tornar fácil para os alunos ver o quão linda pode ser a disciplina, haja vista que ela se faz necessária em tudo na vida, por mais que não se perceba fácil, os números estão por todo lado.
The application of standard nonlinear solid material models in modelling the tensile behaviour of the supraspinatus tendon

Published: November 2022

Tendons transmit forces from muscles to bones through joints. Typically, tendons and muscles work together to innovate a motion. In addition, tendons are often subjected to much higher stresses than the muscles that they serve in any given action. As a result, tendons are susceptible to injuries that may lead to a permanent dysfunction in joint mobility due to the fact that the scar tissue that forms after healing often does not have the same mechanical properties of the original tissue. It is therefore very important to understand the mechanical response of tendons. In this paper the performances are examined of two viscoelastic standard nonlinear models in modelling the elastic and plastic behaviour of the tendon in the light of a well-known hyperelastic Yeoh model. The use of the Yeoh model is more for validating the performances of the viscoelastic models within the elastic region than for comparison purposes. The Yeoh model was selected based on its superior performance in modelling the elastic phase of soft tissue, as reported in previous studies, combined with its simplicity. The results show that the two standard nonlinear solid models perform extremely well both in fitting accuracies and in correlating stress results. The most promising result is the fact that the two standard nonlinear models can model tendon behaviour in the nonlinear plastic region. It is also noted that the two standard nonlinear models are physically insightful since their optimisation parameters can easily be interpreted in terms of tendon elasticity and viscoelastic parameters.
