Improving Equine Intramedullary Nail Osteosynthesis via Fracture Adjacent Polymer Reinforcement
Introduction: Osteosynthesis of the equine femur is still a challenge for veterinary medicine. Even though intramedullary fracture fixation is possible nowadays, the varying geometry of the medullary cavity along the bone axis is a critical factor ...

Dose-dependent new bone formation by extracorporeal shock wave application on the intact femur of rabbits [PDF]
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

Endochondral Ossification of Chick Embryonic Femora in vitro and on Chorioallantoic Membrane
We observed angiogenesis and endochondral ossification of the femora of chick embryos in vitro, on chorioallantoic membrane (CAM), and in vivo to clarify the cellular processes of avian endochondral ossification. We found that the inside of the in vitro

The effectiveness of using carbonate isotope measurements of body tissues to infer diet in human evolution: Evidence from wild western chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes verus)* [PDF]
Changes in diet throughout hominin evolution have been linked with important evolutionary changes. Stable carbon isotope analysis of inorganic apatite carbonate is the main isotopic method used to reconstruct fossil hominin diets; to test its ...
