## Abstract Vascular damage accompanying skeletal injury leads to an ischemic environment, and in clinical settings the extent of vascular damage is directly correlated with failure of skeletal repair. However, the exact mechanism(s) underlying ischemia‐related defects in bone healing are not well
## Abstract Mechanically well‐defined stabilization systems have only recently become available, providing standardized conditions for studying the role of the mechanical environment on mouse bone fracture healing. The aim of this study was to characterize the time course of strength recovery and c
Smoking delays the healing process and increases morbidity associated with many common musculoskeletal disorders, including long bone fracture. In the current study, a murine model of tibial fracture healing was used to test the hypothesis that smoking delays chondrogenesis after fracture. Mice were
## Abstract Mice are increasingly used to investigate mechanobiology in fracture healing. The need exists for standardized models allowing for adjustment of the mechanical conditions in the fracture gap. We introduced such a model using rigid and flexible external fixators with considerably differe
