Abstract: The Mechanostat Theory states that osteocytes sense both the intensity and directionality of the strains induced by mechanical usage and modulate the bone design accordingly. In long bones, this process may adapt anterior‐posterior and lateral‐medial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jpn.13636
Abstract: From the veterinarian point of view, the precise assessment of the phosphorus (P) supply of pigs is of great interest, especially in cases of clinical disorders like 'leg weakness' or lameness when bone mineralisation may… read more here.

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.14708
Abstract: Background Variation in tibia geometry is a risk factor for tibial stress fractures. Geometric variability in bones is often quantified using statistical shape modelling. Statistical shape models (SSM) offer a method to assess three-dimensional variation… read more here.
