Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are well known to have the capability to form bone and cartilage, and chondrogenesis derived from MSCs is reported to be affected by mechanical stimuli. This research was aimed to study the effects of cyclic compressive ... Read more...
30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Mechanical strain may affect aortic valve cusp, leading to an altered extracellular matrix ultrastructure and eventually aortic stenosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the affect of these potential relationships on human tissue. ... Read more...
30 Oct 2009 Press-fit implantation may result in acetabular component deformation between the ischial-ilial columns ("pinching"). The biomechanical and clinical consequences of liner pinching due to press-fit implantation have not been well studied. We compared ... Read more...
