Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The incidence of screw loosening, migration, and pullout caused by the insufficient screw-bone fixation stability is relatively high in clinical practice. To solve this issue, the auxetic unit-based porous bone screw (AS) has been put forward in our previous work. Its favorable auxetic effect can improve the primary screw-bone fixation stability after implantation. However, porous structure affected the fatigue behavior and in vivo longevity of bone screw. In this study, in vitro fatigue behaviors and in vivo osseointegration performance of the re-entrant unit-based titanium auxetic bone screw were studied. The tensile-tensile fatigue behaviors of AS and nonauxetic bone screw (NS) with the same porosity (51%) were compared via fatigue experiments, fracture analysis, and numerical simulation. The in vivo osseointegration of AS and NS were compared via animal experiment and biomechanical analysis. Additionally, the effects of in vivo dynamic tensile loading on the osseointegration of AS and NS were investigated and analyzed. The fatigue strength of AS was approximately 43% lower while its osseointegration performance was better than NS. Under in vivo dynamic tensile loading, the osseointegration of AS and NS both improved significantly, with the maximum increase of approximately 15%. Preferrable osseointegration of AS might compensate for the shortage of fatigue resistance, ensuring its long-term stability in vivo. Adequate auxetic effect and long-term stability of the AS was supposed to provide enough screw-bone fixation stability to overcome the shortages of the solid bone screw, developing the success of surgery and showing significant clinical application prospects in orthopedic surgery. This research investigated the high-cycle fatigue behavior of re-entrant unit-based auxetic bone screw under tensile-tensile cyclic loading and its osseointegration performance, which has not been focused on in existing studies. The fatigue strength of auxetic bone screw was lower while the osseointegration was better than non-auxetic bone screw, especially under in vivo tensile loading. Favorable osseointegration of auxetic bone screw might compensate for the shortage of fatigue resistance, ensuring its long-term stability and longevity in vivo. This suggested that with adequate auxetic effect and long-term stability, the auxetic bone screw had significant application prospects in orthopedic surgery. Findings of this study will provide a theoretical guidance for design optimization and clinical application of the auxetic bone screw.
