In vitro biomechanical evaluation of sagittal split osteotomy fixation with a specifically designed miniplate
(2013-03-01)
Recent studies have evaluated many methods of internal fixation for sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO), aiming to increase stability of the bone segments while minimizing condylar displacement. The purpose of this study ...
Regulation of visfatin by microbial and biomechanical signals in PDL cells
(2013-02-13)
Objectives: This in vitro study was established to examine whether visfatin thought to be a link between periodontitis and obesity is produced by periodontal ligament (PDL) cells and, if so, whether its synthesis is modulated ...
Biomechanics Studies in Dentistry: Bioengineering Applied in Oral Implantology
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2009-07-01)
The application of engineering knowledge in dentistry has helped the understanding of biomechanics aspects related to osseointegrated implants. Several techniques have been used to evaluate the biomechanical load oil ...

(Amer Assoc Neurological Surgeons, 2000-07-01)
Object. the authors conducted a biomechanical study in which they compared the uses of the Rogers interspinous and the Lovely-Carl tension band wiring techniques for internal fixation of the cervical spine.Method. An ...
The effect of locked screw angulation on the biomechanical properties of the S.P.S. Free-Block plate
(2013-03-27)
Objectives: Among the locked internal fixators is one denominated S.P.S. (Synthesis Pengo System) Free-Block, which was designed with a locking ring that allows the screw to be locked and positioned obliquely. Due to the ...
Association between energy cost of walking, muscle activation, and biomechanical parameters in older female fallers and non-fallers
(2013-03-01)
Objective: To determine the nervous activation, muscle strength, and biomechanical parameters that influence the cost of walking in older fallers and non-fallers. Methods: Maximal voluntary isokinetic torque was measured ...
The role of the oblique ligament in the mechanical behavior of the medial collateral ligament of the mongrel dog elbow joint - Some biomechanical aspects
(2005-04-01)
This study investigated the oblique ligament mechanical contribution to the medial collateral ligament of the canine elbow joint. Fifteen dogs were used for the study of the failure load, displacement, and energy absorption ...
The effects of wet suits on physiological and biomechanical indices during swimming
(2000-03-01)
The objectives of this study were to verify the effects of wet suits (WS) on the performance during 1500m swimming (V1500), on the velocity corresponding to the anaerobic threshold (VAT) and on the drag force (AD) as well ...
