Predicting the Fracture Toughness of Human Cancellous Bone in Fractured Neck of Femur Patients Using Bone Volume and Micro-Architecture (2024)
Journal Article
Adams, G. J., Cook, R. B., Gibson, M., & Zioupos, P. (2024). Predicting the Fracture Toughness of Human Cancellous Bone in Fractured Neck of Femur Patients Using Bone Volume and Micro-Architecture. Life, 14(4), Article 467. https://doi.org/10.3390/life14040467

The current protocol used to determine if an individual is osteoporotic relies on assessment of the individual’s bone mineral density (BMD), which allows clinicians to judge the condition of a patient with respect to their peers. This, in essence, ev... Read More about Predicting the Fracture Toughness of Human Cancellous Bone in Fractured Neck of Femur Patients Using Bone Volume and Micro-Architecture.

Parametrization of the Calcaneus and Medial Cuneiform to Aid Potential Advancements in Flatfoot Surgery (2024)
Journal Article
Cai, Y., Pascoletti, G., Zioupos, P., Budair, B., Zanetti, E. M., Ringrose, T. J., & Junaid, S. (2024). Parametrization of the Calcaneus and Medial Cuneiform to Aid Potential Advancements in Flatfoot Surgery. Life, 14(3), Article 328. https://doi.org/10.3390/life14030328

Introduction: Flatfoot is a condition commonly seen in children; however, there is general disagreement over its incidence, characterization and correction. Painful flatfoot accompanied with musculoskeletal and soft tissue problems requires surgery t...

Can vibration statistics of an idealised sine wave be used to examine fatigue properties of porcine trabecular bone? (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Shanker, T.-A., & Zioupos, P. (2017, September). Can vibration statistics of an idealised sine wave be used to examine fatigue properties of porcine trabecular bone?. Presented at HRV2017: 52nd Human Response to Vibration Conference & Workshop, Shrivenham, UK

Fatigue testing on trabecular bone has been performed throughout the years, the data contained could be of use to researchers attempting to find a qualitative link between whole-body vibration and spinal damage. 10 porcine trabecular cores were testi...

Effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin exposure on bone material properties (2010)
Journal Article
Finnilä, M. A., Zioupos, P., Herlin, M., Miettinen, H. M., Simanainen, U., Håkansson, H., Tuukkanen, J., Viluksela, M., & Jämsä, T. (2010). Effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin exposure on bone material properties. Journal of biomechanics, 43(6), 1097-1103. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiomech.2009.12.011

Dioxins are known to decrease bone strength, architecture and density. However, their detailed effects on bone material properties are unknown. Here we used nanoindentation methods to characterize the effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (T...
