## Abstract A major problem in fracture treatment by external fixation is screw loosening, which often results in reduced stability and can lead to prolonged treatment. A loadβcarrying experiment was conducted to determine whether coating implants with bioactive hyroxyapatite (HA) increases screw s
## Abstract Fracture healing is influenced by fixation stability and experimental evidence suggests that the initial mechanical conditions may determine the healing outcome. We hypothesised that mechanical conditions influence not only the healing outcome, but also the early phase of fracture heal
