A tibial osteotomy was created in rabbits and was fixed with an external fixator. The rabbits were divided into 3 groups in which cyclic distraction, cyclic compression and rigid fixation were applied. Fracture healing was similarly enhanced in the groups with cyclic compression and cyclic distraction. Axial cyclic movements seem to stimulate bone healing, regardless of the direction of the applied force.
在兔身上制造胫骨截骨术，并用外固定器固定。将兔子分为3组，分别施加周期性牵张、周期性压缩和刚性固定。周期性压缩组和周期性牵张组的骨折愈合同样得到增强。轴向周期性运动似乎能刺激骨愈合，而与所施加力的方向无关。
