Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Sex differences in the physiological response to acute anterior cruciate ligament overuse
Abstract figure legend With equivalent in vivo fatigue loading of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), females accumulate more tissue damage and mount a slower reparative response than males, when the applied loads between sexes are equivalent. By contrast, males accumulate less tissue damage and mount a robust reparative response that includes ...

Mechanical study in vitro of the resistance of axial forces of 3.5 mm cannulated and conventional screws in head and femoral neck fractures [PDF]
Background: Proximal femoral fractures account for 25% of all femoral fractures in dogs and are more common in young animals. Osteosynthesis of femoral head and neck fractures is a complex procedure that can be performed using conventional screws or ...

In Vitro Evaluation of Hemiarthroplasty Bearing Materials: A Scoping Review (Part I)
ABSTRACT Hemiarthroplasty is used to treat joint damage confined to one side, aiming to preserve the remaining healthy cartilage and bone while addressing conditions like femur fractures and osteonecrosis; however, challenges persist due to cartilage wear and inconsistent clinical outcomes.

ABSTRACT Hemiarthroplasty is commonly used to treat damage localized to one side of a synovial joint, maximally preserving the patient's opposing healthy bone and cartilage; however, challenges remain due to accelerated wear of the cartilage articulating with the implant surface. This scoping review summarized investigations of hemiarthroplasty bearing
