Journal ArticleDOI

Rotator-cuff changes in asymptomatic adults. The effect of age, hand dominance and gender

TL;DR: The results indicate that rotator-cuff lesions are a natural correlate of ageing, and are often present with no clinical symptoms, and should be treated based on clinical findings and not on the results of imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone remodeling in response to in vivo fatigue microdamage

TL;DR: Data from two experiments support the hypothesis that fatigue microdamage is a significant factor in the initiation of intracortical bone remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Loss of osteocyte integrity in association with microdamage and bone remodeling after fatigue in vivo.

TL;DR: The studies show that osteocyte apoptosis is induced by bone fatigue, this apoptotic activity is localized to regions of bone that contain microcracks, and osteoclastic resorption after fatigue also coincides with regions of osteocytes apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone Microdamage and Skeletal Fragility in Osteoporotic and Stress Fractures

TL;DR: It is proposed that osteoporotic fracture may be a consequence of a positive feedback between damage accumulation and the increased remodeling space associated with repair.
