The use of bone graft to increase mechanical strength remains controversial; whilst it may increase mechanical strength, some authors have suggested that opening wedges can be left unfilled [ 3], which avoids the risk associated with gap filling with inert substances [ 15].
Modern implant designs and materials may increase the strength of the tibial baseplate, durability of the liner locking mechanism, and UHMWPE wear resistance, while better surgical techniques may improve implant fixation suggesting that bicruciate retaining TKA could be feasible.
It may be combined with water to make mud, straw may be added, some form of stabilizing material such as lime or cement may be used to harden the earth, and the earth may be compacted to increase strength.
Or it's possible that dark energy may increase in strength and undergo a phase transition, giving rise to a Big Bang once again, and restarting our "cyclical" Universe.
For example, it has been observed experimentally that the acetylcholine system is more activated during the initial exploration of a novel space than when the animal is moving around in a familiar space, and acetylcholine may increase the strength of afferent input connections relative to feedback recurrent connections [48].
Unusually, the two halves of the lower jaw are connected by a special cartilage, which allows a more even distribution of teeth and may increase bite strength.
Modifying the innate response may increase the strength of adaptive responses required for inducing efficient immunological memory in infants.
Acute stress in combination with chronic stress may increase the strength of association with PTB [ 79].
Future inclusion of additional patients and longer follow-up may increase the strength of the association between TP73 and outcome.
Nonetheless, our population may be unique with respect to a high prevalence of macrocytosis and validation with another dialysis population may increase the strength of our findings.
