Default 2015 Texas A&M study on ADR failure modes

In researching whether I want Prodisc, ESP or other devices, I found the linked article. Not sure if it has been posted here before; a search did not drag it up for me. My takeaway is that the authors like the one-piece devices like the ESP, though they describe it as needing more clinical data.
