Median (diamond mark) and range (error bars) for the survival cycles of the three different repair techniques. The loading amount was noted for the three different cyclic loading stages. The means (range) of the four-stranded Krachow suture repair (4sK), triple bundle suture technique (TBS), and jigless knotless internal brace technique (JKIB) were 1384.5 (1003–1875), 2712.5 (1901–2953), and 2062.5 (1504–2741), respectively. There were significant between-group differences in the survival cycles after the post-hoc analysis (p < 0.001)
