            Figure 1. Design of 3D-printed cervical cages: solid (A), porous where top and bottom sections have porous structures (B), and porous window design
            with an additional window on the sides (C). Front views are shown on the left and isometric views on the right.

            were calculated from the curves using a custom script in   in Equation I, defined by the standard. The offset on the
            MATLAB 2021b, using the recommendations in ASTM    angular displacement axis is calculated as 10% of the
            F2077  as a guide. To calculate the yield moment, offset   intradiscal height ( H intradiscal ) divided by the implant height
                 22
            angular displacement (OAD) was calculated as “3.02°”   ( H implant  ), multiplied by a constant.
