Introduction With the introduction and continuous improvement in operative fracture fixation,
even the most severe bone fractures can be treated with a high rate of successful healing …

The controlled dynamization of fractures can promote natural fracture healing by callus
formation, while overly rigid fixation can suppress healing. The advent of locked plating …

Multicomponent functional scaffolds hold great promise as implanted materials with
compatible mechanical properties and biological functionalities. Interpenetrating phase …

Introduction: Bone healing can be improved by axial micromovement, as has been shown in
animals and human patients with external fixators. In the development of smart fracture …

Bone fracture healing is a complex physiological process influenced by biomechanical and
biomolecular factors. Mechanical stability is crucial for successful healing, and disruptions …

In the healthcare system, lower leg fractures remain relevant, incurring costs related to
surgical treatment, hospitalization, and rehabilitation. The duration of treatment may vary …

Aims The “2 to 10% strain rule” for fracture healing has been widely interpreted to mean that
interfragmentary strain greater than 10% predisposes a fracture to nonunion. This …

Continuous administration of low‐intensity whole‐body vibration (WBV) gradually
diminishes bone mechanosensitivity over time, leading to a weakening of its osteogenic …

Multicomponent functional scaffolds hold great promise as implanted materials with
compatible mechanical properties and biological functionalities. Interpenetrating phase …

Nonunion and delayed-union fractures pose a significant clinical challenge, often leading to
prolonged morbidity and impaired quality of life. Fracture-induced hematoma and acute …
