Correlation of SP and/or CGRP expression with tendon degeneration (Movin score). The association between various variables and tendon degeneration severity (Movin score) was analyzed using the linear regression test. The Movin score was significantly associated with the parameters including preoperative VAS score (a), SP (b), and CGRP (c) expression levels (r = 0.22, p < 0.05; r = 0.43, p < 0.001; and r = 0.50, p < 0.001 respectively). The association of both SP and CGRP with the Movin score was visualized by a three-dimensional graph (d). VAS, visual analog scale; SP, substance P; CGRP, calcitonin gene-related peptide
