Failure load

downin humans1

1 study
  1. Void space decreases failure load in humans (-111.3 N, p = 0.006).

    “reduction in failure load of 31.6 N at the radius (p = 0.073) and 111.3 N at the tibia (p = 0.006)”

    Humanstibiamean follow-up of 6.8 ± 1.8 yearsn = 603

    Localized bone deterioration predicts declining failure load and increased fracture risk

Fracture risk

upin humans1

1 study
  1. Void space is associated with fracture risk in humans (0.5% increase per 1% increase in VS/TV, p< 0.01).

    “A 1% increase in VS/TV was correlated with a 0.5% increase in fracture risk (p< 0.01)”
