沃爾夫定律
沃爾夫定律（英語：Wolff's law）是由十九世紀時德國的解剖學家及外科醫生朱利叶斯·沃尔夫提出的理論，認為健康的人類或動物的骨骼會適應所在部位需承受的負載[1]。若特定骨骼的負載增加了，骨骼會慢慢的變強壯，來承受該負載[2]。骨中小梁的內在結構會產生適應性的變化，而骨的外層皮層也會隨之變化[3]，因此也有可能使骨骼變粗。反之亦然，若骨骼負載減少，骨骼也會變細，因為該骨骼的新陳代謝較不需要，而且沒有刺激來產生可以維持骨質量的骨的再建[4]。

This concept — that bone adapts to pressure, or a lack of it — is known as Wolff’s law. ... there is no evidence that a bone that breaks will heal to be stronger than it was before.
