Abstract:
:The torque-tension characteristics of standard, conical and flanged external fixator pins and a cortical screw were compared using a commercially available testing apparatus. The flanged pin and the screw were similar in behaviour, and converted torque into tension more efficiently than conical and standard external fixator pins.

BIOMATERIALS文献大全abstract::Topographic features can modulate cell behaviours such as proliferation, migration, differentiation and apoptosis. Biochemical mechanotransduction implies the conversion of mechanical forces (e.g. changes in cell spreading and morphology from changing surface topography) into biochemical signal via biomolecules.
