The influence of “kickstand” screws on the mechanical performance of a lateral distal femoral plate: a finite element analysis

Bone & Joint Research
Aims: Lateral locked plating of distal femoral fractures is widely reported, yet there remains a 9% to 19% incidence of mechanical failure. Obliquely directed “kickstand screws”, from the metaphyseal portion of a plate toward far-sided articular ...

3D Multicellular Scaffold Based Model for Advancing Bone Disorder Research

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable 3D multicellular in vitro bone model engineered by integrating osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and endothelial cells on biodegradable scaffolds. The system recapitulates key features of human bone remodeling and disease pathology. As a proof of concept, the model mimics osteogenesis imperfecta, demonstrating its potential as a physiologically ...

Association Between Stiffness of the Deep Fibres of the Tibialis Anterior Muscle and Seiza Posture Performance After Ankle Fracture Surgery

Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology
Background: Seiza, a traditional sitting posture requiring deep ankle plantarflexion and knee flexion, often becomes difficult after ankle fracture surgery because of restricted mobility.

High‐Concentration Mesogen‐Assisted Exfoliation of Low‐Dimensional Nanomaterials for Achieving Ultralow‐Temperature Actuations of Liquid Crystal Elastomers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Most matter is nominally frozen in the polar regions or space, and liquid crystal materials are no exception. Consequently, soft actuators, including liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs), are inoperative under such extreme cold in response to stimuli, as their motion relies on mechanical deformation.

Performance Characteristics of a New Aerostatic Thrust Bearing with Poro-Elastic Restrictor

Lubricants
Aerostatic bearings were proven to be an optimal choice in situations where low friction, cleanliness, and high motion accuracy are required. Their functionality relies heavily on flow restrictors, which are responsible for regulating and controlling the

Substrate Stress Relaxation Regulates Cell‐Mediated Assembly of Extracellular Matrix

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Silicone‐based viscoelastic substrates with tunable stress relaxation reveal how matrix mechanics regulates cellular mechanosensing and cell‐mediated matrix remodelling in the stiff regime. High stress relaxation promotes assembly of fibronectin fibril‐like structures, increased nuclear localization of YAP and formation of β1 integrin‐enriched ...
