author = "K Kubo and Ian Clarke and PA Williams and T Sorimachi and T Halim and A Gustafson and K Yamamoto",
note = "Wear in polyethylene liners appears to be exacerbated by 3rd-body abrasion effects with the CoCr ball combinations used for total hip replacements. This has implications for various wear modes encountered in patients. Yet clinical and laboratory studies have offered weak and sometimes contradictory wear relationships with respect to crosslinking, ball diameter and roughness, and 3rd-body wear effects.",
