    Summary · context
    Each animal also had one fracture treated for 20 min/day with active-LIPUS (spatial-averaged, temporal-averaged intensity [I(SATA)]=100 mW/cm(2)) and the contralateral fracture treated with inactive-LIPUS (placebo).
    Summary · context
    Femurs were harvested 35 days following injury to permit micro-computed tomography, mechanical property and histological assessments of the fracture calluses.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Teriparatide (PTH 1-34) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Teriparatide (PTH 1-34).
