Papers
Mechanical testing of cancellous bone from the femoral head: experimental errors due to off-axis measurements.
Caroline Öhman,Massimiliano Baleani,Egon Perilli,Enrico Dall'Ara,Simone Tassani,Fabio Baruffaldi,Marco Viceconti +6 more
TL;DR: A great effect of the angle between the testing direction and the main direction of the trabecular structure on the compressive behaviour of cancellous bone is demonstrated.

MicroCT examination of human bone specimens: effects of polymethylmethacrylate embedding on structural parameters
Egon Perilli,Fabio Baruffaldi,M. Visentin,Barbara Bordini,Francesco Traina,Angelo Cappello,Marco Viceconti +6 more
TL;DR: Structural parameters estimated by microtomography for human trabecular bone samples scanned either in air or embedded in polymethylmethacrylate are not affected by the surrounding medium, provided that the corresponding optimal threshold value is applied for each acquisition condition.

Risk of fracture in elderly patients: a new predictive index based on bone mineral density and finite element analysis
TL;DR: The aim of this work is to assess a method that accounts for the structural details of the bone providing a more direct determination of strength properties, and improving the diagnostic power of the current densitometric systems.

TRAIL inhibits osteoclastic differentiation by counteracting RANKL-dependent p27Kip1 accumulation in pre-osteoclast precursors.
Giorgio Zauli,Erika Rimondi,Susanna Stea,Fabio Baruffaldi,Marco Stebel,Carlotta Zerbinati,Federica Corallini,Paola Secchiero +7 more
TL;DR: The data strongly suggest that recombinant TRAIL inhibits osteoclastogenesis by inducing the ubiquitin‐mediated degradation of p27Kip1.

Specialised CT scan protocols for 3-D pre-operative planning of total hip replacement.
TL;DR: This study is aimed at developing a special CT scanning protocol for the hip region that can be adopted in clinical practise for 3-D pre-operative planning of total hip replacement surgery.
