Studies on Bone-mass Formation within a Theoretical Model [PDF]
Bone-mass formation in human is looked at to understand the underlying dynamics with an eye on healing of bone-fracture and non-unions in non-invasive pathways. Three biological cells osteoblasts, osteoclasts and osteocytes are important players in creating new bone or osseous matter in which quite a few hormones, proteins and minerals have ...

Macroscopic Anisotropic Bone Material Properties in Children with Severe \u3cem\u3eOsteogenesis imperfecta\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
Children with severe osteogenesis imperfecta(OI) typically experience numerous fractures and progressive skeletal deformities over their lifetime. Recent studies proposed finite element models to assess fracture risk and guide clinicians in determining ...

Fracture healing is delayed in the absence of gasdermin-interleukin-1 signaling
Amino-terminal fragments from proteolytically cleaved gasdermins (GSDMs) form plasma membrane pores that enable the secretion of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18.

Bone mineral density estimation from a plain X-ray image by learning decomposition into projections of bone-segmented computed tomography [PDF]
Osteoporosis is a prevalent bone disease that causes fractures in fragile bones, leading to a decline in daily living activities. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and quantitative computed tomography (QCT) are highly accurate for diagnosing osteoporosis; however, these modalities require special equipment and scan protocols. To frequently monitor

Modeling of biological doses and mechanical effects on bone transduction [PDF]
Shear stress, hormones like parathyroid and mineral elements like calcium mediate the amplitude of stimulus signal which affects the rate of bone remodeling. The current study investigates the theoretical effects of different metabolic doses in stimulus signal level on bone.

In vivo assessment of the mechanical properties of the child cortical bone using quantitative computed tomography [PDF]
The mechanical properties of the rib cortical bone are extremely rare on children due to difficulties to obtain specimens to perform conventional tests. Some recent studies used cadaveric bones or bone tissues collected during surgery but are limited by ...
