Biomechanical Evaluation of Osseous Implants Having Different Surface Topographies in Rats
Takahiro Ogawa,S. Ozawa,J. H. Shih,K. H. Ryu,Cortino Sukotjo,Jenn-Ming Yang,Ichiro Nishimura +6 more
TL;DR: The validity of the push-in test in rats may be used as a rapid and sensitive biomechanical assay system for implant osseointegration research and it sensitively differentiates between the effects of different implant surface topographies.

Ovariectomy hinders the early stage of bone-implant integration: Histomorphometric, biomechanical, and molecular analyses
S. Ozawa,Takahiro Ogawa,Keisuke Iida,Cortino Sukotjo,H. Hasegawa,R. D. Nishimura,Ichiro Nishimura +6 more
TL;DR: A biphasic effect of female gonadal hormone deficiency is suggested that may temporarily interfere with the early implant-tissue integration process, and which may be associated with a failure to upregulate a selected set of bone extracellular matrix genes.
