Biomechanics of Locked Plates and Screws (2004, background): “shear stress of the bone trapped within the threads of the screw for the conventional plate, with the best purchase furthest from or closest to the fracture site depending on where the loading is being initiated.(8) This occurs because conventional plating is FIGURE 2.”
Fracture healing under healthy and inflammatory conditions (2012, background): “Furthermore specific facets of this process have been described elsewhere”
Inflammation, Fracture and Bone Repair (2016, background): “Gap healing refers to a similarmechanically stable situation but with a slightly larger gap existing between the bone fragments; this void is filled with direct deposition of intramembranous woven bone and the mature bone Haversian system is re-established via the osteoclast-mediated remodeling proc”
