Clinical findings after PRP and saline treatment of SDFT lesions over time. a Degree of lameness. b Scores for sensitivity to palpation. c Scores for skin surface temperature in the palmar metacarpal region. Mean ± SE; global test for PRPG and CG p < 0.001; Different letters (PRP normal and control italic) indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) within groups; PRPG = PRP-group: n = 10 limbs, SDFTs treated intralesionally with PRP; CG = control group: n = 10 limbs, SDFTs treated intralesionally with saline; black arrow = day 0: diagnosis, intralesional injection of PRP/saline; PRP = platelet-rich plasma; w = weeks; SDFT = superficial digital flexor tendon
