The intention of the current article is to review the epidemiology with related socioeconomic
costs, pathophysiology, and treatment options for diaphyseal long bone delayed unions and …

Gait analysis continues to be an important technique for many clinical applications to
diagnose and monitor certain diseases. Many mental and physical abnormalities cause …

This second edition of the Bone Mechanics Handbook summarizes the current
understanding of bone mechanics with comprehensive coverage of the histology …

A new quantitative tissue differentiation theory which relates the local tissue formation in a
fracture gap to the local stress and strain is presented. Our hypothesis proposes that the …

An interdisciplinary study based on animal experiments, cell culture studies, and finite
element models is presented. In a sheep model, the influence of the osteotomy gap size and …

This paper reviews the available literature on computational modelling in two areas of bone
biomechanics: fracture and healing. Bone is a complex material, with a multiphasic …

Flexible fixation of fractures with minimally invasive surgical techniques has become
increasingly popular. Such techniques can lead to relatively large fracture gaps (larger than …

The world's population is aging: the expansion of the older adult population with multiple
physical and health issues is now a huge socio-economic concern worldwide. Among these …

The biomechanical environment plays a dominant role in the process of fracture repair.
Mechanical signals control biological activities at the fracture site, regulate the formation and …

Nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) play an essential part in our approach to
control pain in the posttraumatic setting. Over the last decades, several studies suggested …
