    Notes: Implant stabilization by biologic ingrowth into a porous surface offers a durable method of prosthetic fixation. These systems, however, lack the immediate stability offered by the use of acrylic bone cement. The interface strength of porous coated Co—Cr—Mo in a canine model does not approach that of acrylic bone cement until two weeks postoperatively. It is expected that this would be a minimum time period in clinical applications. Both chemical and electrical means have been advocated as methods to affect tissue ingrowth. A study using a canine model was undertaken to determine tissue ingrowth rates utilizing examples of these two methods: (1) impregnation of the porous structures with tricalcium phosphate powder (TCP); or (2) the application of an electrical stimulator to the implant with the implant itself serving as the cathode. Ten implants were coated with TCP, two each at weekly intervals from 1 to 5 weeks. Plain porous rods were likewise implanted, serving as the controls. While histology did reveal a slightly more dense bony structure, the interface bond strength was not affected by TCP. Electrical stimulation of the implant was similarly investigated with an additional time period of 10 weeks. Compared to the controls, the electrically stimulated implants reveal no statistically demonstratable difference in interface strength. Histologic specimens indicate larger areas of calcification than are observed in the controls.

    Notes: This study was undertaken to determine the effect of loading rate on bone failure under singular and combined loading states. Using the entire loading range of an Instron Materials Testing Machine, 190 pairs of canine radii were tested. One bone of each pair was subjected to either torsional or a combination of axial and torsional loads, and compared with a control specimen. Compressive loads of 4.6 and 11.5 N were utilized. Torque to failure and energy data versus loading rate were plotted. As loading rate increased, the torque and energy values were found to increase, reach a peak, and then decline at higher rates. Fractures produced under the combined state of loading are representative of those clinically found in human trauma situations.

    Notes: Although the joints of the index finger are similar geometrically and kinematically, the occurrence of degenerative joint disease is more frequent and severe in the distal interphalangeal joint. Much circumstantial evidence exists to suggest a mechanical cause for the observed differences in frequency. This article presents the results of in vitro experiments designed to determine contact areas and average pressures in the joints of the human index finger for positions simulating tip pinch and power grasp. The results show that the highest average contact pressures do, in fact, occur in the distal interphalangeal joint. Average joint contact pressure correlates well with clinically observed patterns of frequency of degeneration and degenerative joint disease score. This correlation between clinical experience and experimental results indicates that mechanical stress is among the factors responsible for the initiation and/or propagation of degenerative joint disease in the joints of the finger.
