| Molecular analysis of defect healing in rat diaphyseal bone. |
| The most sensitive structure of the skeleton in case of lead intoxication includes tubular bones, epiphyseal and diaphyseal periosteal zones inside them. |
| The bone was then twisted around the diaphyseal axis at a constant rate until a break, which was expected to take place at the weakest point of the bone. |
| In diaphyseal and metaphyseal fractures there is usually a history of trauma, requiring appropriate immobilisation. |
