“…For the femoral fracture procedure, animals were anesthetized with a combination (1:1) of xylazine and ketamine (0.1 mg/100 g) injected intramuscularly, and the right pelvic limb was shaved. Next, the right thigh was restrained by two metallic supports [7]. The blunted blade of a guillotine apparatus was lowered onto the middle part of the thigh, and a vertical force was applied until an abrupt decrease in resistance occurred, indicating femur failure (fracture).…”

“…The analysis was done using DXA with a Lunar DPX-IQ densitometer (Lunar Version 4.7e; GE Healthcare, Little Chalfont, UK) [7,17,19]. The entire fractured femur was scanned and the bone mineral density ([BMD] in g/cm 2 ), bone mineral content ([BMC] in g), and area (in cm 2 ) were assessed over the full extent of the callus.…”

“…Vibration has been demonstrated to have beneficial effects in the therapeutic field, such as in the increase in bone mass with 4 weeks of application 22 . However, it was observed that this stimulus could be harmful with an increase in exposure time by 8 weeks 15 .…”

“…One of the resources employed in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis is vibration applied by a vibrating platform 7 , which can achieve anabolic responses following daily application for 5 to 20 minutes, 2 to 5 times a week 7,22 . Despite that stimulus being invoked as a form of treatment, exposure to vibration may cause tissue damage 8 .…”

“…For this purpose, the rats were placed on a vibratory table in a custom-designed cage measuring 20 × 25 × 10 cm. This acrylic cage had two chambers, allowing the treatment of two rats at a time while they were physically separated from each other [ 13 ].…”
