Biomechanical indices of postfracture bone strength in CCP-treated rats.
Section | Diameter (mm) | Peak torsion (Nm) | Torsional stiffness (Nm/deg) | Energy absorption |
---|---|---|---|---|
Native | 3.75 ± 0.28 | 0.41 ± 0.11 | 1.68 ± 0.71 | 0.11 ± 0.04 |
Control | 4.19 ± 1.01 | 0.27 ± 0.05 | 0.98 ± 0.65 | 0.04 ± 0.00 |
CCP | 4.50 ± 0.83 | 0.41 ± 0.08** | 1.26 ± 0.49 | 1.14 ± 0.02** |
CCP treatment compared to OVX control: ** P < 0.01.
