Surgical sutures routinely pass through muscle tissue during closure, a standard technique evaluated in surgical studies and animal models.

The analysis

The claim is a specific, empirical statement about standard surgical practice. The retrieved papers include direct evidence of sutures being placed in muscle tissue (e.g., paper 8 on muscle laceration repair and paper 11 on placing sutures in muscle alongside other organs). Therefore, the claim is supported by the evidence.
