Causal pathways between training loads and the mechanisms of tissue damage and athletic
injury are poorly understood. Here, the relation between specific training load measures and …

The human ageing process is universal, ubiquitous and inevitable. Every physiological
function is being continuously diminished. There is a range between two distinct phenotypes …

There are more than 2 million bone grafting procedures performed annually in the US alone.
Despite significant efforts, the repair of large segmental bone defects is a substantial clinical …

Gradient scaffolds are isotropic/anisotropic three-dimensional structures with gradual
transitions in geometry, density, porosity, stiffness, etc., that mimic the biological extracellular …

Understanding how bones are innately designed, robustly developed and delicately
maintained through intricate anatomical features and physiological processes across the …

Normal weight obesity (NWO) is defined as having a normal body mass index (BMI), but a
high body fat mass. There is growing interest in individuals with NWO, which is an …

Limitations associated with conventional bone substitutes such as autografts, increasing
demand for bone grafts, and growing elderly population worldwide necessitate development …

In this study, three porous NiTi scaffolds with the same porosity but different pore sizes (900,
835, and 618 μm) were fabricated via selective laser melting (SLM). The microstructure …

Bone loss in astronauts during spaceflight may be a risk factor for osteoporosis, fractures
and renal stone formation. We previously reported that the bisphosphonate alendronate …
