NOTCH signaling in skeletal progenitors is critical for fracture repair [PDF]
, 2016 Fracture nonunions develop in 10%–20% of patients with fractures, resulting in prolonged disability. Current data suggest that bone union during fracture repair is achieved via proliferation and differentiation of skeletal progenitors within periosteal ...

Experimental model of distraction osteogenesis in edentulous rats
Brazilian Oral Research, 2011 Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a surgical technique producing bone lengthening by distraction of the fracture callus. Although a large number of experimental studies on the events associated with DO of craniofacial skeleton have been reported, the few ...

The effect of increased microporosity on bone formation within silicate-substituted scaffolds in an ovine posterolateral spinal fusion model [PDF]
, 2016 This study compared the bone forming capacity of the same formulation of silicate-substituted bone graft substitute materials with different microporosity in an instrumented posterolateral spinal fusion ovine model. Materials with a strut porosity of (i)

Medical thermography (digital infrared thermal imaging - DITI) in paediatric forearm fractures - a pilot study [PDF]
, 2015 Trauma is the most common cause of hospitalisation in children, and forearm fractures comprise 35% of all paediatric fractures. One-third of forearm fractures are distal forearm fractures, which are the most common fractures in the paediatric population.

Dose-dependent new bone formation by extracorporeal shock wave application on the intact femur of rabbits [PDF]
, 2008 Background: Whereas various molecular working mechanisms of shock waves have been demonstrated, no study has assessed in detail the influence of varying energy flux densities (EFD) on new bone formation in vivo. Methods: Thirty Chinchilla bastard rabbits

Predictors of barefoot plantar pressure during walking in patients with diabetes, peripheral neuropathy and a history of ulceration [PDF]
, 2015 OBJECTIVE:Elevated dynamic plantar foot pressures significantly increase the risk of foot ulceration in diabetes mellitus. The aim was to determine which factors predict plantar pressures in a population of diabetic patients who are at high-risk of foot ...
