Periosteal bone formation was not affected by cycle number (p > 0.05, ANOVA).
Each of these three groups had a significant increase in bone formation in
loaded vs. control tibias. Tibias in these groups (Groups 6, 5 and 3) were
loaded to −1800 με, 5 days/wk for 2 weeks. Bars depict
mean ± SD for the loaded (right) tibia; dashed line indicates mean value
for control tibias of these groups.
