Dogs were sacrificed at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks after surgery, and bone specimens were used to evaluate the efficacies of different fixing methods on bones through X-ray, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), histology, MicroCT, and biomechanics analyses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>X-ray results showed significant callus formation and periosteal reaction in the LC-DCP group. Bone cell morphology, degree of osteoporosis, and bone mineral density (BMD) changes of the LCP group were significantly better than that of the LC-DCP group. MicroCT results showed that the LCP group had significantly reduced degree of cortical bone osteoporosis than the LC-DCP group. Tissue mineral density (TMD) in the LCP group was higher than that in the LC-DCP group at different time points (6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks). Biomechanics analyses demonstrated that the compressive strength and flexural strength of bones fixed by LCP were better than that by LC-DCP.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Stress-shielding effects of LCP are significantly weaker than that of LC-DCP, which is beneficial to new bone formation and fracture healing, and LCP can be widely used in clinic for fracture fixation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s13018-021-02238-3","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,29]],"date-time":"2021-01-29T11:03:10Z","timestamp":1611918190000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["RETRACTED ARTICLE: An experimental study on stress-shielding effects of locked compression plates in fixing intact dog femur"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Xinwen","family":"Zhao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wensen","family":"Jing","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhe","family":"Yun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xun","family":"Tong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhao","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jiajia","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yaohui","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yabin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhixue","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yanhua","family":"Wen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Heping","family":"Cai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jun","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Baoan","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Haien","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"2238_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"118","DOI":"10.1007\/s00776-005-0984-7","volume":"11","author":"HK Uhthoff","year":"2006","unstructured":"Uhthoff HK, Poitras P, Backman DS.
