AIM To compare the bond strength and the fracture resistance of different post systems. MATERIALS AND METHODS Endodontically treated 60 mandibular incisor and 60 mandibular premolar teeth were used for the bond strength and fracture resistance test respectively. For each test, three groups (n = 20) were formed according to the posts used zirconia posts (ZR post), individually formed glass fib...

Fatty infiltration of muscle, myosteatosis, increases with age and results in reduced muscle strength and function and increased fall risk. However, it is unknown if increased fatty infiltration of muscle predisposes to hip fracture. We measured the mean Hounsfield unit (HU) of the lean tissue within the midthigh muscle bundle (thigh muscle HU, an indicator of intramuscular fat), its cross-sect...

Purpose: The mechanical strength of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) remains far from ideal for maintaining the longevity of denture. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of Zirconium oxide (ZrO2) nanofillers powder with different concentration (1.5%, 3%, 5% and 7%) on the flexural strength, fracture toughness, and hardness of heat-polymerized acrylic resin. Materials and methods:...

STUDY DESIGN Retrospective case series of one institute database. OBJECTIVE To investigate the differences in the metallic strength of rods used for implant failure in the dual growing rod technique and evaluate clinical outcomes. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA The dual growing rod technique in which implanted rods extend with the growth of the spine is a useful treatment for early onset scolio...

Non-invasive assessment of fracture healing, both in clinical and animal studies, has gained favour as surrogate measure to estimate regain of mechanical function. Micro-computed tomography (µCT) parameters such as fracture callus volume and mineralisation have been used to estimate callus mechanical competence. However, no in-depth information has been reported on microstructural parameters in...

Many fractures occur in individuals without osteoporosis defined by areal bone mineral density (aBMD). Inclusion of other aspects of skeletal strength may be useful in identifying at-risk subjects. We used surrogate measures of bone strength at the radius and tibia measured by peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) to evaluate their relationships with nonvertebral fracture risk. Fem...
