Insertion torque can influence the degree of OM insertion and, subsequently, the amount of microdamage formed following insertion into 1.5 mm thick porcine tibia bone. An increase in insertion torque corresponds with greater insertion depth and larger amounts of microdamage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
