Are uniform regional safety factors an objective of adaptive modeling/remodeling in cortical bone?

Abstract: Mechanical strains produced by functional loading influence the cellular activities responsible for normal appendicular bone development and maintenance. Contemporary investigations recognize that modeling and remodeling processes mediate the strain-related structural and material adaptations produced during normal bone development. However, the goals towards which such adaptations are directed remain unclear. hypothesized that a possible objective for regional variations in material organization between cort… Show more

“…We assumed no histological or material property differences between the MC3s of the left and right limbs. These bones, and the machined specimens obtained from them, were used in our previous study examining 'regional' safety factors (Skedros et al, 2003a). Mechanical test data from our previous study were also used in the present study.…”

“…The cortical locations, the number of animals, and the number of test specimens obtained were as follows: dorsal-lateral (D-L, N=2; 20 total specimens), lateral (L, N=1; 10 total specimens), palmarmedial (P-M, N=2; 20 total specimens) and dorsal-medial (D-M, N=1; 10 total specimens) (Fig.·2A). In the context of the published strain distribution (Gross et al, 1992) and used previously (Skedros et al, 2003a), these locations represent areas that experience in vivo tensile strains, and a range of compression magnitudes [e.g. dorsal-medial (low) to palmarmedial (high)] (Fig.·1, Fig.·2A).…”
