The incidence of obesity is rapidly rising, increasing morbidity and mortality rates worldwide.
Associated comorbidities include type 2 diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver disease, and …

The objective of this study is to use the finite element (FE) method to predict the mechanical
signals (interstitial fluid velocity, strain, pore pressure, and pore fluid velocity) produced by …

Objectives: Low-magnitude high-frequency vibration (LMHFV) was reported beneficial to
muscle contractile functions in clinical and preclinical studies. This study aims to investigate …

This study aimed to explore the effects of additional weight bearing in combination with low-
magnitude high-frequency vibration (LMHFV; 45 Hz, 0.3 g) on bone quality. One hundred …

Translational and preclinical investigations of regenerative rehabilitation approaches are
dependent on an ability to appropriately design and implement physical rehabilitation …

Both chemical and physical stimuli can influence the fate of precursor cell populations.
Therefore, the impact they have on promoting unwanted differentiation events must be …

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of short-term, high-magnitude
whole-body vibration (WBV) on serum type I collagen turnover in immobilized rats. Materials …

Purpose The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of mechanical vibration on the
histomorphometry and oxidative stress of oophorectomized rats. Method Seventy-two Wistar …

The direct and indirect effects of muscle contraction on bone microcirculation and fluid flow
are neither well documented nor explained. However, skeletal muscle contractions may …

Osteopenia, a condition of diminished bone mass, becomes osteoporosis when mechanical
demands exceed the ability of the skeletal structure to support them. Mechanical signals …
