[Dynamics of the structural recovery of the rat's tibia from suspension-produced osteopenia].
The qualitative histomorphometric techniques were used to study the dynamics of tibia structural recovery from osteopenia in 30 female rats previously suspended by tail for 30 days. The suspension was found to have caused osteopenia in the tibial proximal metaphysis that was fully gone only after 60 day; in other words, readaptation took twice as much time as the osteopenia development. This fact should be taken into consideration by designers of rehabilitative methods.
