Journal of Osteoporosis, 2010 Aim was to investigate fracture risk (FR) according to bone loss (BL) rate. A random sample of 1652 women aged 53.5 years was measured with dual X-ray absorptiometry in femoral neck in 1989 and 1994 and divided into tertiles of annual BL rate: high >0.84%

Viability of Periosteal Tissue Obtained Postmortem
Cell Transplantation, 1999 Periosteal autografts have the potential to regenerate articular cartilage defects, but this potential is limited by the patient's age. Allograft transplantation from a young donor to an older recipient might bypass this limitation.

Biophysical and biomechanical properties of cartilage [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Cartilage is a connective tissue that covers the surfaces of bones in joints and provides a smooth gliding surface for movement. It is characterized by specific biophysical properties that allow it to withstand compressive loads, distribute mechanical forces, and maintain tissue integrity.

Knee Cartilage Defect Assessment by Graph Representation and Surface Convolution [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common osteoarthritis and a leading cause of disability. Cartilage defects are regarded as major manifestations of knee OA, which are visible by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Thus early detection and assessment for knee cartilage defects are important for protecting patients from knee OA.

New frontiers for cartilage repair, joint preservation and prevention
Journal of Cartilage & Joint Preservation, 2022 Damaged cartilage is seen with increasing frequency after joint trauma, alone or in combination with other joint injuries. A poor healing of injured cartilage leads to great disability and pain and could by time develop into osteoarthritis (OA).

Recent progress in cartilage lubrication [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Healthy articular cartilage, covering the ends of bones in major joints such as hips and knees, presents the most efficiently-lubricated surface known in nature, with friction coefficients as low as 0.001 up to physiologically high pressures. Such low friction is indeed essential for its well being.
