Bottlang M, Shetty S, Blankenau C, Wilk J, Tsai S, Fitzpatrick D, et al.
J Clin Med . 2024 May; 13(10). PMID: 38792446
The controlled dynamization of fractures can promote natural fracture healing by callus formation, while overly rigid fixation can suppress healing. The advent of locked plating technology enabled new strategies for...

Augat P, Hast M, Schemitsch G, Heyland M, Trepczynski A, Borgiani E, et al.
OTA Int . 2023 Aug; 4(2 Suppl). PMID: 37608858
This manuscript summarizes presentations of a symposium on key considerations in design of biomechanical models at the 2019 Basic Science Focus Forum of the Orthopaedic Trauma Association. The first section...

Bottlang M, DiGiacomo G, Tsai S, Madey S
Heliyon . 2022 Aug; 8(8):e09962. PMID: 35982843
Background: Comparative studies of different helmet designs are essential to determine differences in helmet performance. The present study comparatively evaluated the impact performance of hardhat helmets, climbing-style safety helmets, and...

DiGiacomo G, Tsai S, Bottlang M
Ann Biomed Eng . 2021 Feb; 49(10):2805-2813. PMID: 33528683
Rotational acceleration of the head is a principal cause of concussion and traumatic brain injury. Several rotation-damping systems for helmets have been introduced to better protect the brain from rotational...

Bottlang M, Rouhier A, Tsai S, Gregoire J, Madey S
Ann Biomed Eng . 2019 Jul; 48(1):68-78. PMID: 31342338
Bicycle helmets effectively mitigate skull fractures, but there is increasing concern on their effectiveness in mitigating traumatic brain injury (TBI) caused by rotational head acceleration. Bicycle falls typically involve oblique...

Bliven E, Rouhier A, Tsai S, Willinger R, Bourdet N, Deck C, et al.
Accid Anal Prev . 2019 Jan; 124:58-65. PMID: 30634159
Background: A novel bicycle helmet concept has been developed to mitigate rotational head acceleration, which is a predominant mechanism of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This WAVECEL concept employs a collapsible...

Bottlang M, Lorich D, Dvorzhinskiy A, Gausden E, Slobogean G, Schemitsch G, et al.
J Orthop Trauma . 2018 Feb; 32 Suppl 1:S17-S20. PMID: 29461397
This study summarizes presentations of a symposium on biomechanically related hot topics of the 2015 Basic Science Focus Forum. Each topic emphasizes a biomechanical challenge common to all 4 of...

Madey S, Tsai S, Fitzpatrick D, Earley K, Lutsch M, Bottlang M
Iowa Orthop J . 2017 Aug; 37:1-10. PMID: 28852327
Background: Rigid locked plating constructs can suppress fracture healing by inhibiting interfragmentary motion required to stimulate natural bone healing by callus formation. Dynamic fixation with active locking plates reduces construct...

Henschel J, Tsai S, Fitzpatrick D, Marsh J, Madey S, Bottlang M
J Orthop Trauma . 2017 Jun; 31(10):531-537. PMID: 28657927
Background: Decreasing the stiffness of locked plating constructs can promote natural fracture healing by controlled dynamization of the fracture. This biomechanical study compared the effect of 4 different stiffness reduction...

Bottlang M, Tsai S, Bliven E, von Rechenberg B, Kindt P, Augat P, et al.
J Orthop Trauma . 2016 Nov; 31(2):71-77. PMID: 27861456
Objectives: Active plates dynamize a fracture by elastic suspension of screw holes within the plate. We hypothesized that dynamic stabilization with active plates delivers stronger healing relative to standard compression...
