Comput Struct Biotechnol J 2023; 21:4395-4407. [PMID: 37711188 PMCID: PMC10498129 DOI: 10.1016/j.csbj.2023.08.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Bone is a dynamic environment where osteocytes, osteoblasts, and mesenchymal stem/progenitor cells perceive mechanical cues and regulate bone metabolism accordingly. In particular, interstitial fluid flow in bone and bone marrow serves as a primary biophysical stimulus, which regulates the growth and fate of the cellular components of bone. The processes of mechano-sensory and -transduction towards bone formation have been well studied mainly in vivo as well as in two-dimensional (2D) dynamic cell culture platforms, which elucidated mechanically induced osteogenesis starting with anabolic responses, such as production of nitrogen oxide and prostaglandins followed by the activation of canonical Wnt signaling, upon mechanosensation. The knowledge has been now translated into regenerative medicine, particularly into the field of bone tissue engineering, where multipotent stem cells are combined with three-dimensional (3D) scaffolding biomaterials to produce transplantable constructs for bone regeneration. In the presence of 3D scaffolds, the importance of suitable dynamic cell culture platforms increases further not only to improve mass transfer inside the scaffolds but to provide appropriate biophysical cues to guide cell fate. In principle, the concept of dynamic cell culture platforms is rooted to bone mechanobiology. Therefore, this review primarily focuses on biophysical environment in bone and its translation into dynamic cell culture platforms commonly used for 2D and 3D cell expansion, including their advancement, challenges, and future perspectives. Additionally, it provides the literature review of recent empirical studies using 2D and 3D flow-based dynamic cell culture systems for bone tissue engineering.

Risk factors and longitudinal regenerative outcomes of sinus membrane perforation during lateral window sinus floor elevation: A retrospective analysis up to 9 years. J Periodontol 2023; 94:1045-1054. [PMID: 36748281 DOI: 10.1002/jper.22-0424] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2022] [Revised: 01/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lateral-window sinus floor elevation (LSFE) is a reliable procedure to reconstruct the posterior maxilla for implant therapy. This retrospective study aimed to investigate risk factors associated with Schneiderian membrane perforation (SMP) occurrence during LSFE and longitudinal regenerative outcomes following LSFE up to 9 years. METHODS Patients who had LSFE between 2010 and 2019 were included. All demographic and surgical-related data were retrieved from existing electronic health records. Radiographs were used to evaluate the vertical dimensional changes of ridge and graft materials and the potential anatomic factors of SMP. RESULTS A total of 122 LSFE procedures in 99 patients were included in the study. Mean ridge height gain and graft shrinkages were 9.5 ± 3.47 and 1.57 ± 2.85 mm. The influence of the healing period on graft shrinkage showed a positive trend; the longer the healing period, the greater the graft shrinkage (p = 0.09). The pathology in the sinus showed a positive correlation with SMP (p = 0.07). However, other anatomical factors did not negatively impact SMP and subsequent ridge height gain (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS With inherent limitation, the findings with up to 9 years of follow-up indicate a consistent ridge remodeling lasting for about 3 years after LSFE procedures. SMP or membrane thickening may not significantly affect the ridge gain following LSFE. The healing period had the most significant influence on graft shrinkage, showing that the longer the healing time between LSFE and implant placement, the greater the graft shrinkage.

Association between Fractures and Low Muscle Mass in Korean Menopausal Women: Data from Korean National Health and Nutrition Survey (2010-2011). J Menopausal Med 2023; 29:66-72. [PMID: 37691314 PMCID: PMC10505518 DOI: 10.6118/jmm.23006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study used the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) to determine the association between fractures and low muscle mass. METHODS This cross-sectional study used the 2010-2011 KNHANES data. Low muscle mass was defined as (appendicular skeletal muscle mass [kg]/Height² [m²]) < 5.45 kg/m², which is < 2 SD below the sex-specific mean of a young reference group. Patients with T-scores between -1.0 and -2.5 indicated osteopenia, whereas those with T-scores lower than -2.5 indicated osteoporosis. RESULTS Out of 1,306 women enrolled in the study, 330 were diagnosed with low muscle mass according to the abovementioned diagnostic criterion. The prevalence of fractures at various sites was significantly higher in postmenopausal women with low muscle mass than in those without low muscle mass (relative risk [RR], 1.64; odds ratio [OR], 1.62; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.06-2.48; P = 0.027). Furthermore, the prevalence of fractures was increased by the presence of osteopenia or osteoporosis in addition to low muscle mass (RR, 1.59; OR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.02-2.49; P = 0.039) and by osteoporosis only (RR, 2.12; OR, 2.29; 95% CI, 1.11-4.70; P = 0.025). CONCLUSIONS Fracture was more prevalent in postmenopausal women with low muscle mass than in those without low muscle mass. This finding is consistent in a subgroup analysis that included women who had osteoporosis or osteopenia. Moreover, the risk of fractures increased as low muscle mass worsened.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional progressive concentric strengthening exercise (CSE) to improve bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) may not be feasible for populations with chronic musculoskeletal and/or metabolic conditions, such as osteoporosis or obesity. Muscle lengthening exercise, also known as an eccentric strengthening exercise (ESE), may have a special utility for those populations due to greater force generation versus CSE. In fact, greater mechanical loading can be induced on bone at lower resistance levels with ESE. However, effects of ESE on BMD and BMC are unclear. Thus, the purpose of this review was to interrogate the effects of ESE on BMD and BMC. METHODS A literature review was conducted between January 1995 and April 2022 focusing on randomized controlled trials investigating the effects of ESE on BMD and/or BMC in humans. Terms covering the domains of exercise, bone, and populations were searched on PubMed, CINAHL, and Scopus. The methodological quality of each interventional study was rated using Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale. Cohen's d was calculated to determine the magnitude of the effects of ERE on site-specific outcome measures of BMD and/or BMC. RESULTS Out of 1,182 articles initially found, a total of seven full length articles met our inclusion criteria. Of the seven studies, most of the interventions were performed in young (n = 5, PEDro = 5-7) versus middle-aged (n = 1, PEDro = 4) or older (n = 1, PEDro = 6) adults. BMD and BMC generally improved due to ESE; however the effects of ESE on BMD and BMC were non-homogenous. Effect size (d) ranged from 0.10-0.87 in young adults while it was 1.16 in older adults. Effect size (d) could not be calculated for the middle-aged adult study due to critical methodological limitations of the intervention. CONCLUSIONS Large variability exists for the effectiveness of ESE on BMD/BMC across the human life spectrum. The benefits of ESE on BMD holds promise but rigorous studies are lacking. Further research is needed to examine if the dose, mode, age, and sex-specificity dictate effects of ESE on BMD/BMC.

Regulation of Bone by Mechanical Loading, Sex Hormones, and Nerves: Integration of Such Regulatory Complexity and Implications for Bone Loss during Space Flight and Post-Menopausal Osteoporosis.

Abstract
During evolution, the development of bone was critical for many species to thrive and function in the boundary conditions of Earth. Furthermore, bone also became a storehouse for calcium that could be mobilized for reproductive purposes in mammals and other species. The critical nature of bone for both function and reproductive needs during evolution in the context of the boundary conditions of Earth has led to complex regulatory mechanisms that require integration for optimization of this tissue across the lifespan. Three important regulatory variables include mechanical loading, sex hormones, and innervation/neuroregulation. The importance of mechanical loading has been the target of much research as bone appears to subscribe to the "use it or lose it" paradigm. Furthermore, because of the importance of post-menopausal osteoporosis in the risk for fractures and loss of function, this aspect of bone regulation has also focused research on sex differences in bone regulation. The advent of space flight and exposure to microgravity has also led to renewed interest in this unique environment, which could not have been anticipated by evolution, to expose new insights into bone regulation. Finally, a body of evidence has also emerged indicating that the neuroregulation of bone is also central to maintaining function. However, there is still more that is needed to understand regarding how such variables are integrated across the lifespan to maintain function, particularly in a species that walks upright. This review will attempt to discuss these regulatory elements for bone integrity and propose how further study is needed to delineate the details to better understand how to improve treatments for those at risk for loss of bone integrity, such as in the post-menopausal state or during prolonged space flight.

Abstract
Mutations in the COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes, which encode type I collagen, are present in around 85%-90% of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) patients. Because type I collagen is the principal protein composition of bones, any changes in its gene sequences or synthesis can severely affect bone structure. As a result, skeletal deformity and bone frailty are defining characteristics of OI. Homozygous oim/oim mice are utilized as models of severe progressive type III OI. Bone adapts to external forces by altering its mass and architecture. Previous attempts to leverage the relationship between muscle and bone involved using a soluble activin receptor type IIB-mFc (sActRIIB-mFc) fusion protein to lower circulating concentrations of activin A and myostatin. These two proteins are part of the TGF-β superfamily that regulate muscle and bone function. While this approach resulted in increased muscle masses and enhanced bone properties, adverse effects emerged due to ligand promiscuity, limiting clinical efficacy and obscuring the precise contributions of myostatin and activin A. In this study, we investigated the musculoskeletal and whole-body metabolism effect of treating 5-week-old wildtype (Wt) and oim/oim mice for 11 weeks with either control antibody (Ctrl-Ab) or monoclonal anti-activin A antibody (ActA-Ab), anti-myostatin antibody (Mstn-Ab), or a combination of ActA-Ab and Mstn-Ab (Combo). We demonstrated that ActA-Ab treatment minimally impacts muscle mass in oim/oim mice, whereas Mstn-Ab and Combo treatments substantially increased muscle mass and overall lean mass regardless of genotype and sex. Further, while no improvements in cortical bone microarchitecture were observed with all treatments, minimal improvements in trabecular bone microarchitecture were observed with the Combo treatment in oim/oim mice. Our findings suggest that individual or combinatorial inhibition of myostatin and activin A alone is insufficient to robustly improve femoral biomechanical and microarchitectural properties in severely affected OI mice. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteosarcopenia is a syndrome with a concomitant presence of both sarcopenia and osteopenia/osteoporosis. It increases the risk of frailty, falls, fractures, hospitalization, and death. Not only does it burden the lives of older adults, but it also increases the economic burden on health systems around the world. This study aimed to review the prevalence and risk factors of osteosarcopenia to generate important references for clinical work in this area. METHODS Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, CBM, and VIP databases were searched from inception until April 24th, 2022. The quality of studies included in the review was evaluated using the NOS and AHRQ Scale. Pooled effects of the prevalence and associated factors were calculated using random or fixed effects models. Egger's test, Begg's test, and funnel plots were used to test the publication bias. Sensitivity analysis and subgroup analysis were conducted to identify the sources of heterogeneity. Statistical analysis was performed using Stata 14.0 and Review Manager 5.4. RESULTS A total of 31 studies involving 15,062 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The prevalence of osteosarcopenia ranged from 1.5 to 65.7%, with an overall prevalence of 21% (95% CI: 0.16-0.26). The risk factors for osteosarcopenia were female (OR 5.10, 95% CI: 2.37-10.98), older age (OR 1.12, 95% CI: 1.03-1.21), and fracture (OR 2.92, 95% CI: 1.62-5.25). CONCLUSION The prevalence of osteosarcopenia was high. Females, advanced age, and history of fracture were independently associated with osteosarcopenia. It is necessary to adopt integrated multidisciplinary management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Measuring physiological loading conditions in vivo can be challenging, as methods are invasive or pose a high modeling effort. However, the physiological loading of bones is also imprinted in the bone microstructure due to bone (re)modeling. This information can be retrieved by inverse bone remodeling (IBR). Recently, an IBR method based on micro-finite-element (µFE) modeling was translated to homogenized-FE (hFE) to decrease computational effort and tested on the distal radius. However, this bone has a relatively simple geometry and homogeneous microstructure. Therefore, the objective of this study was to assess the agreement of hFE-based IBR with µFE-based IBR to predict hip joint loading from the head of the femur; a bone with more complex loading as well as more heterogeneous microstructure. METHODS hFE-based IBR was applied to a set of 19 femoral heads using four different material mapping laws. One model with a single homogeneous material for both trabecular and cortical volume and three models with a separated cortex and either homogeneous, density-dependent inhomogeneous, or density and fabric-dependent orthotropic material. Three different evaluation regions (full bone, trabecular bone only, head region only) were defined, in which IBR was applied. µFE models were created for the same bones, and the agreement of the predicted hip joint loading history obtained from hFE and µFE models was evaluated. The loading history was discretized using four unit load cases. RESULTS The computational time for FE solving was decreased on average from 500 h to under 1 min (CPU time) when using hFE models instead of µFE models. Using more information in the material model in the hFE models led to a better prediction of hip joint loading history. Inhomogeneous and inhomogeneous orthotropic models gave the best agreement to µFE-based IBR (RMSE% <14%). The evaluation region only played a minor role. CONCLUSIONS hFE-based IBR was able to reconstruct the dominant joint loading of the femoral head in agreement with µFE-based IBR and required considerably lower computational effort. Results indicate that cortical and trabecular bone should be modeled separately and at least density-dependent inhomogeneous material properties should be used with hFE models of the femoral head to predict joint loading.

Abstract
Osteoblasts alignment and migration are involved in the directional formation of bone matrix and bone remodeling. Many studies have demonstrated that mechanical stretching controls osteoblast morphology and alignment. However, little is known about its effects on osteoblast migration. Here, we investigated changes in the morphology and migration of preosteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells after the removal of continuous or cyclic stretching. Actin staining and time-lapse recording were performed after stretching removal. The continuous and cyclic groups showed parallel and perpendicular alignment to the stretch direction, respectively. A more elongated cell morphology was observed in the cyclic group than in the continuous group. In both stretch groups, the cells migrated in a direction roughly consistent with the cell alignment. Compared to the other groups, the cells in the cyclic group showed an increased migration velocity and were almost divided in the same direction as the alignment. To summarize, our study showed that mechanical stretching changed cell alignment and morphology in osteoblasts, which affected the direction of migration and cell division, and velocity of migration. These results suggest that mechanical stimulation may modulate the direction of bone tissue formation by inducing the directional migration and cell division of osteoblasts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was aimed to examine the relationship between muscular fitness indicators in childhood and areal bone mineral density (aBMD) in adulthood and to verify whether the relationship is mediated by performance on muscular fitness indicators in adulthood. METHODS A sample of 138 healthy adults (69 males; 22.3 years) were followed after a previous assessment at the age of 7-10 years. Stature, body mass and muscular fitness indicators (handgrip strength, standing long jump and sit-ups tests) were assessed in childhood and adulthood. Additionally, total body, upper limbs, lower limbs, right femoral neck and lumbar spine aBMD was assessed in adulthood using dual X-ray absorptiometry. Analysis included descriptive statistics; t-test or Mann-Whitney U-test for comparison between males and females, multiple linear regression for the prediction aBMD from muscular fitness indicators in childhood, mediation analysis of the respective muscular fitness indicators in adulthood and the relationship between muscular fitness indicators in childhood and aBMD. RESULTS Males were stronger compared to females regarding muscular fitness indicators in childhood and adulthood, and presented higher mean values for aBMD in adulthood, except for lumbar spine (p < 0.05). Regression analysis revealed that some muscular fitness indicators in childhood showed significant positive relationship with bone health indicators in adulthood, such as: handgrip strength and total body aBMD (β = 0.005; R2 = 0.35; p = 0.040) and upper limbs aBMD (β = 0.005; R2 = 0.55; p = 0.019); and sit-ups test was a significant predictors of lumbar spine BMD (β = 0.003; R2 = 0.06; p = 0.039). Mediation analysis pointed out the following: adulthood handgrip strength mediated relationships between childhood handgrip strength and total aBMD (indirect effect (IE) = 0.0025; 95%CI = 0.0005-0.0048), and upper limbs aBMD (IE = 0.0040; 95%CI = 0.0017-0.0069). CONCLUSIONS Muscular fitness indicators in childhood showed significant relationship with bone health indicators in adulthood and the sit-ups test in childhood had direct effect on lumbar spine aBMD in adulthood. Adulthood handgrip strength mediated the relationship between childhood handgrip strength and total body and upper limb aBMD, pointing out that muscular fitness in childhood may be a aBMD determinant in adulthood, especially when higher muscle fitness performance is maintained in adulthood.

Abstract
The rapid spread of the finite element method has caused that it has become, among other methods, the standard tool for pre-clinical estimates of bone properties. This paper presents an application of this method for the calculation and prediction of strain and stress fields in the femoral head. The aim of the work is to study the influence of the considered anisotropy and heterogeneity of the modeled bone on the mechanical fields during a typical gait cycle. Three material models were tested with different properties of porous bone carried out in literature: a homogeneous isotropic model, a heterogeneous isotropic model, and a heterogeneous anisotropic model. In three cases studied, the elastic properties of the bone were determined basing on the Zysset-Curnier approach. The tensor of elastic constants defining the local properties of porous bone is correlated with a local porosity and a second order fabric tensor describing the bone microstructure. In the calculations, a model of the femoral head generated from high-resolution tomographic scans was used. Experimental data were drawn from publicly available database "Osteoporotic Virtual Physiological Human Project." To realistically reflect the load on the femoral head, main muscles were considered, and their contraction forces were determined based on inverse kinematics. For this purpose, the results from OpenSim packet were used. The simulations demonstrated that differences between the results predicted by these material models are significant. Only the anisotropic model allowed for the plausible distribution of stresses along the main trabecular groups. The outcomes also showed that the precise evaluation of the mechanical fields is critical in the context of bone tissue remodeling under mechanical stimulations.

Biomechanical factors in the open gingival embrasure region during the intrusion of mandibular incisors: A new model through finite element analysis. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1149472. [PMID: 37064220 PMCID: PMC10090539 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1149472] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2023] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Open gingival embrasure (OGE) is a common complication in adults following clear aligner therapy and the influence of gingival or alveolar bone biotype on OGE is of great concern. Unfortunately, due to the limited number of patients with clearaligner therapy and the clinical methods to distinguish the gingival biotype of patients being invasive, it is difficult to carry out clinical studies on the gingival or alveolar bone biotype of the OGE. In the meanwhile, the detailed biomechanics of the occurrence of OGE remains unknown. The goal of this study was to establish a new model to simulate the virtual space region, namely, the OGE region, to investigate the relationship between alveolar bone biotype and the occurrence of OGE, and explore potential biomechanical factors related to OGE.Methods: The OGE region in the interproximal space was established using a filler with a very low modulus of elasticity (1 × 10−6 MPa). To illustrate the biomechanics of OGE more exhaustively, a line was created at the top of the alveolar crest along the proximal tooth root. FEA was then used to analyze the biomechanics of the surrounding tissues, the OGE region and the line at the top of the alveolar crest along the proximal tooth root of the central incisor under two different labial bone thicknesses (thick and thin) with an axial inclination of 80°, 90° and 100°.Results: During intrusion of the incisors in clear aligner therapy, as inclination increased or bone tissue became thinner, the stress in the surrounding tissues [tooth root, alveolar crest, and periodontal ligament (PDL)] was greater. In the OGE region and interproximal alveolar crest, the strain increased with increasing inclination and labial bone thinning. The results from the line at the top of the alveolar crest along the proximal tooth root showed more detailed biomechanics: In all groups, stress and strain were focused on the mesial-labial alveolar crest. Interestingly, our results also demonstrated that when OGE occurs, other complications may arise, including root resorption and bone dehiscence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Primary stability (PS) is remarkable for secondary stability and implant success. Surgical technique modifications seem to improve primary stability, especially in poor quality bone. The aim of this study was to compare the insertion torque (IT) and implant stability quotients (ISQ) of implants placed with underpreparation, expanders, and standard surgical instrumentation in different bone types. MATERIAL AND METHODS This randomized controlled clinical trial enrolled 108 patients (n=108 implants) distributed in three study groups: group 1 (n=36) underpreparation technique, group 2 (n=36) expander technique, and group 3 (n=36) conventional drilling. IT was recorded with a torque indicator. ISQ was recorded with resonance frequency analysis immediately after surgery. RESULTS ISQ values were associated with the patient's bone quality and were higher in bone quality type II (76.65) and type III (73.60) and lower in bone quality type IV (67.34), with statistically significant differences (p<0.0001). Lower stability results were obtained when conventional drilling (69.31) was used compared to the use of underpreparation (74.29) or expanders (73.99) with a level of significance of p=0.008 and p=0.005, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The surgical technique influences the PS when there is low-quality bone. In low-quality bones, conventional drilling obtains lower ISQ values. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Replace the conventional drilling technique for an alternative, underpreparation or expanders, in low-quality bone in order to achieve greater primary stability.

Abstract
The addition of information regarding obesity status to the forensic anthropological biological profile could significantly contribute to the identification of human skeletal remains since over 40% of the U.S. adult population is currently obese. This study examines the differences in talar shape and trabecular bone structure between obese and non-obese individuals. A sample of 20 obese and 20 non-obese divided evenly by sex was selected from the Texas State University Donated Skeletal Collection. Tali were imaged using x-ray computed tomography (voxel size: 28-38.7 μm). Image stacks were processed to produce binary images as well as trabecular thickness and spacing maps. Landmark-based geometric morphometric analyses were conducted to quantify shape variation. Shape coordinates were used to locate 100 geometrically homologous volumes of interest within each talus. Bone volume fraction, trabecular thickness, and trabecular spacing were extracted at each volume of interest. Within each sex, a one-way ANCOVA was used to determine if significant differences exist between obese and non-obese individuals in trabecular bone after controlling for age. The size of the talus as well as subtle aspects of shape were found to distinguish the sexes. The results further indicate that bone volume fraction significantly differs between obese and non-obese males. In females, bone volume fraction is correlated with age but does not differ between obese and non-obese. The study demonstrates that bone microstructure is a promising approach to estimating body mass or body mass index category but age effects diminish the potential for the talus to be used alone.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare and evaluate density changes in alveolar bones and biomechanical responses including stress/strain distributions around customized root implants (CRIs), traditional implants, and natural teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS A three-dimensional finite element model of the maxillary dentition defect, CRI models, traditional restored implant models, and natural teeth with periodontal tissue models were established. The chewing load of the central incisor, the traditional implant, and the CRI was 100N, and the load direction was inclined by 11° in the sagittal plane. According to the bone remodeling numerical algorithm, the bone mineral density and distribution were calculated and predicted. In addition, animal experiments were performed to verify the feasibility of the implant design. The results of the simulation calculations were compared with animal experimental data in vivo to verify their validity. RESULTS No significant differences in bone mineral density and stress/strain distribution were found between the CRI and traditional implant models. The animal experimental results (X-ray images and histological staining) were consistent with the numerical simulated results. CONCLUSIONS CRIs were more similar to traditional implants than to natural teeth in terms of biomechanical and biological evaluation. Considering the convenience of clinical application, this biomechanical evaluation provides basic theoretical support for further applications of CRI.

Sharing Circulating Micro-RNAs between Osteoporosis and Sarcopenia: A Systematic Review. Life (Basel) 2023; 13:life13030602.

Abstract
Background: Osteosarcopenia, a combination of osteopenia/osteoporosis and sarcopenia, is a common condition among older adults. While numerous studies and meta-analyses have been conducted on osteoporosis biomarkers, biomarker utility in osteosarcopenia still lacks evidence. Here, we carried out a systematic review to explore and analyze the potential clinical of circulating microRNAs (miRs) shared between osteoporosis/osteopenia and sarcopenia. Methods: We performed a systematic review on PubMed, Scopus, and Embase for differentially expressed miRs (p-value < 0.05) in (i) osteoporosis and (ii) sarcopenia. Following screening for title and abstract and deduplication, 83 studies on osteoporosis and 11 on sarcopenia were identified for full-text screening. Full-text screening identified 54 studies on osteoporosis, 4 on sarcopenia, and 1 on both osteoporosis and sarcopenia. Results: A total of 69 miRs were identified for osteoporosis and 14 for sarcopenia. There were 9 shared miRs, with evidence of dysregulation (up- or down-regulation), in both osteoporosis and sarcopenia: miR-23a-3p, miR-29a, miR-93, miR-133a and b, miR-155, miR-206, miR-208, miR-222, and miR-328, with functions and targets implicated in the pathogenesis of osteosarcopenia. However, there was little agreement in the results across studies and insufficient data for miRs in sarcopenia, and only three miRs, miR-155, miR-206, and miR-328, showed the same direction of dysregulation (down-regulation) in both osteoporosis and sarcopenia. Additionally, for most identified miRs there has been no replication by more than one study, and this is particularly true for all miRs analyzed in sarcopenia. The study quality was typically rated intermediate/high risk of bias. The large heterogeneity of the studies made it impossible to perform a meta-analysis. Conclusions: The findings of this review are particularly novel, as miRs have not yet been explored in the context of osteosarcopenia. The dysregulation of miRs identified in this review may provide important clues to better understand the pathogenesis of osteosarcopenia, while also laying the foundations for further studies to lead to effective screening, monitoring, or treatment strategies.

Abstract
The growth and development of healthy tissues is dependent on the construction of a highly specialised extracellular matrix (ECM) to provide support for cell growth and migration and to determine the biomechanical properties of the tissue. These scaffolds are composed of extensively glycosylated proteins which are secreted and assembled into well-ordered structures that can hydrate, mineralise, and store growth factors as required. The proteolytic processing and glycosylation of ECM components is vital to their function. These modifications are under the control of the Golgi apparatus, an intracellular factory hosting spatially organised, protein-modifying enzymes. Regulation also requires a cellular antenna, the cilium, which integrates extracellular growth signals and mechanical cues to inform ECM production. Consequently, mutations in either Golgi or ciliary genes frequently lead to connective tissue disorders. The individual importance of each of these organelles to ECM function is well-studied. However, emerging evidence points towards a more tightly linked system of interdependence between the Golgi, cilium and ECM. This review examines how the interplay between all three compartments underpins healthy tissue. As an example, it will look at several members of the golgin family of Golgi-resident proteins whose loss is detrimental to connective tissue function. This perspective will be important for many future studies looking to dissect the cause and effect of mutations impacting tissue integrity.

Abstract
A regional acceleration of bone remodeling may possibly follow biomechanical insults to the bone. This review assesses the literature and clinical arguments supporting the hypothetical association between accelerated bone remodeling and bone marrow edema (BME)-like signal intensity on magnetic resonance imaging. BME-like signal is defined as a confluent ill-delimited area of bone marrow with a moderate decrease in signal intensity on fat-sensitive sequences and a high signal intensity on fat-suppressed fluid-sensitive sequences. In addition to this confluent pattern, a linear subcortical pattern and a patchy disseminated pattern have also been recognized on fat-suppressed fluid-sensitive sequences. These particular BME-like patterns may remain occult on T1-weighted spin-echo images. We hypothesize that these BME-like patterns, with particular characteristics in terms of distribution and signal, are associated with accelerated bone remodeling. Limitations in recognizing these BME-like patterns are also discussed.

Abstract
Changes in bone architecture and metabolism with aging increase the likelihood of osteoporosis and fracture. Age-onset osteoporosis is multifactorial, with contributory extrinsic and intrinsic factors including certain medical problems, specific prescription drugs, estrogen loss, secondary hyperparathyroidism, microenvironmental and cellular alterations in bone tissue, and mechanical unloading or immobilization. At the histological level, there are changes in trabecular and cortical bone as well as marrow cellularity, lineage switching of mesenchymal stem cells to an adipogenic fate, inadequate transduction of signals during skeletal loading, and predisposition toward senescent cell accumulation with production of a senescence-associated secretory phenotype. Cumulatively, these changes result in bone remodeling abnormalities that over time cause net bone loss typically seen in older adults. Age-related osteoporosis is a geriatric syndrome due to the multiple etiologies that converge upon the skeleton to produce the ultimate phenotypic changes that manifest as bone fragility. Bone tissue is dynamic but with tendencies toward poor osteoblastic bone formation and relative osteoclastic bone resorption with aging. Interactions with other aging physiologic systems, such as muscle, may also confer detrimental effects on the aging skeleton. Conversely, individuals who maintain their BMD experience a lower risk of fractures, disability, and mortality, suggesting that this phenotype may be a marker of successful aging. © 2023 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
Analysis of the dependency of the trabecular structure on loading conditions is essential for understanding and predicting bone structure formation. Although previous studies have investigated the relationship between loads and structural adaptations, there is a need for an in-depth analysis of this relationship based on the bone region and load specifics. In this study, the load dependency of the trabecular bone microstructure for twelve regions of interest (ROIs) in the synthetic proximal femur was quantitatively analyzed to understand the spatial characteristics under seven different loading conditions. To investigate the load dependency, a quantitative measure, called the load dependency score (LDS), was established based on the statistics of the strain energy density (SED) distribution. The results showed that for the global model and epiphysis ROIs, bone microstructures relied on the multiple-loading condition, whereas the structures in the metaphysis depended on single or double loads. These results demonstrate that a given ROI is predominantly dependent on a particular loading condition. The results confirm that the dependency analysis of the load effects for ROIs should be performed both qualitatively and quantitatively.

Abstract
Outbreaks of humeral fractures in dairy cows have been reported in New Zealand for several years. Gross, histologic, and histomorphometric findings in the humerus from primiparous cows with spontaneous humeral fracture were compared to age-matched control cows. Affected cows had a complete nonarticular spiral fracture of the humerus. Histologically affected humeri had a thicker growth plate with abnormal architecture, thinner cortex with increased abnormal resorption, increased resorption in the distal humerus, decreased trabecular density, abnormal trabecular architecture, presence of growth arrest lines and woven bone formation. Histomorphometry showed reduction in bone volume, trabecular perimeter, and trabecular width. Cows grazed on fodder beet had thicker growth plates with an abnormal appearance compared with cows grazed on pasture, and cows with low/marginal liver copper concentration had more resorption cavities in the distal humerus and thinner cortical bone compared with cows with adequate liver copper concentration. Decreased trabecular density (OR = 249.5), abnormal cortical resorption (OR = 54.2), presence of woven bone formation in the proximal metaphysis (OR = 37.2), and the number of resorption cavities in the distal humerus were significantly associated with a high probability of fracture. Ribs had enlargement of the costochondral junction with fractures in different stages of healing. Histology of the ribs revealed abnormal growth plate appearance, presence of fracture lines, callus tissue, fibrosis, and microfractures. Cows with humeral fracture have osteoporosis due to decreased bone formation and increased bone resorption, likely associated with inadequate feed quality and perhaps copper deficiency leading to a reduction in bone strength and fracture.

Bone parameters in hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and hypermobility spectrum disorder: A comparative cross-sectional study. Bone 2023; 166:116583. [PMID: 36243401 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2022.116583] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2022] [Revised: 08/08/2022] [Accepted: 10/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare bone parameters between individuals with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) and generalized joint hypermobility spectrum disorder (G-HSD), both diagnosed according to the most recent diagnostic criteria, and with controls. METHODS Twenty female adults with hEDS (mean age 43.8 years), 20 with G-HSD (mean age 41.8 years), and 37 healthy controls (mean age 40.8 years) participated. Body composition and bone parameters at whole body and lumbar spine were assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Peripheral quantitative computed tomography at the lower leg evaluated body composition (66 % site), and trabecular (4 % site) and cortical (66 % site) bone parameters at the tibia. RESULTS No significantly different body composition and bone parameters were observed between hEDS and G-HSD. Compared to controls, individuals with hEDS and G-HSD had lower muscle mass (p = 0.004 and p < 0.001, respectively) and cross-sectional area (p = 0.025 and p < 0.001, respectively), cortical bone mineral content (BMC; p = 0.024 and p = 0.027, respectively) and area (p = 0.019 and p = 0.010, respectively). Additionally, individuals with hEDS had lower muscle density (p = 0.009), trabecular BMC (p = 0.027) and bone mineral density (p = 0.022), and individuals with G-HSD lower stress-strain index (p = 0.019), and periosteal and endosteal circumference (p = 0.002 and 0.025, respectively), compared to controls. CONCLUSION Results indicated lower cortical bone mineral content and smaller cortices in hEDS and G-HSD compared to controls. Individuals with hEDS and G-HSD had no different bone parameters, suggesting that these impairments might not be reflected by the different diagnostic classification. Therefore, we recommend regular physical activity, and training to reduce the risk of falling in both hEDS or G-HSD.

Abstract
Here we developed a spatio-temporal bone remodeling model to simulate the action of Basic Multicelluar Units (BMUs). This model is based on two major extensions of a temporal-only bone cell population model (BCPM). First, the differentiation into mature resorbing osteoclasts and mature forming osteoblasts from their respective precursor cells was modelled as an intermittent process based on precursor cells availability. Second, the interaction between neighbouring BMUs was considered based on a "metabolic cost" argument which warrants that no new BMU will be activated in the neighbourhood of an existing BMU. With the proposed model we have simulated the phases of the remodelling process obtaining average periods similar to those found in the literature: resorption ( ∼ 22 days)-reversal (∼8 days)-formation (∼65 days)-quiescence (560-600 days) and an average BMU activation frequency of ∼1.6 BMUs/year/mm3. We further show here that the resorption and formation phases of the BMU become coordinated only by the presence of TGF-β (transforming growth factor β), i.e., a major coupling factor stored in the bone matrix. TGF-β is released through resorption so upregulating osteoclast apoptosis and accumulation of osteoblast precursors, i.e., facilitating the transition from the resorption to the formation phase at a given remodelling site. Finally, we demonstrate that this model can explain targeted bone remodelling as the BMUs are steered towards damaged bone areas in order to commence bone matrix repair.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The development of bipedalism is a very complex activity that contributes to shaping the anatomy of the foot. The talus, which starts ossifying in utero, may account for the developing stages from the late gestational phase onwards. Here, we explore the early development of the talus in both its internal and external morphology to broaden the knowledge of the anatomical changes that occur during early development. MATERIALS AND METHODS The sample consists of high-resolution microCT scans of 28 modern juvenile tali (from 36 prenatal weeks to 2 years), from a broad chronological range from the Late Roman period to the 20th century. We applied geometric morphometric and whole-bone trabecular analysis to investigate the early talar morphological changes. RESULTS In the youngest group (<6 postnatal months), the immature external shell is accompanied by an isotropic internal structure, with thin and densely packed trabeculae. After the initial attempts of locomotion, bone volume fraction decreases, while anisotropy and trabecular thickness increase. These internal changes correspond to the maturation of the external shell, which is now more defined and shows the development of the articular surfaces. DISCUSSION The internal and external morphology of the human talus reflects the diverse load on the foot during the initial phases of the bipedal locomotion, with the youngest group potentially reflecting the lack of readiness of the human talus to bear forces and perform bipedal walking. These results highlight the link between mechanical loading and bone development in the human talus during the acquisition of bipedalism, providing new insight into the early phases of talar development.

Abstract
Elite adult male fast bowlers have high lumbar spine bone mineral, particularly on the contralateral side to their bowling arm. It is thought that bone possesses its greatest ability to adapt to loading during adolescence, but it is unknown at what age the greatest changes in lumbar bone mineral and asymmetry develops in fast bowlers. Objectives This study aims to evaluate the adaptation of the lumbar vertebrae in fast bowlers compared to controls and how this is associated with age. Methods 91 male fast bowlers and 84 male controls aged 14-24 years had between one and three annual anterior-posterior lumbar spine dual-energy-X-ray absorptiometry scans. Total (L1-L4) and regional ipsilateral and contralateral L3 and L4 (respective to bowling arm) bone mineral density and content (BMD/C) were derived. Multilevel models examined the differences in lumbar bone mineral trajectories between fast bowlers and controls. Results At L1-L4 BMC and BMD, and contralateral BMD sites, fast bowlers demonstrated a greater negative quadratic pattern to their accrual trajectories than controls. Fast bowlers had greater increases in BMC in L1-L4 between 14 and 24 years of 55% compared with controls (41%). Within vertebra, asymmetry was evident in all fast bowlers and increased by up to 13% in favour of the contralateral side. Conclusions Lumbar vertebral adaptation to fast bowling substantially increased with age, particularly on the contralateral side. The greatest accrual was during late adolescence and early adulthood, which may correspond with the increasing physiological demands of adult professional sport.

Abstract
A detailed analysis of differences in skeletal shape among many individuals is expected to reveal the mechanical significance behind various morphological features. To confirm the distribution of the cortical bone region in cross sections, the relative position of the central mass distribution (CMD) of the cortical bone region to the CMD of the entire cross section was examined. A total of 90 right human femoral skeletons were examined using clinical multi-slice computed tomography. For nine cross sections of each femur, we determined the CMD of the whole area, including both cortical bone and medullary areas, as CMD-W, and that of the cortical bone region in the same cross section as CMD-C, and they were compared. The medial and anterior portion of the cortex was relatively thick just below the lesser trochanter. The posterior cortical bone tended to be relatively thick in the region from the center to the distal part of the diaphysis. Females had a significantly more medially deviated CMD than males throughout the entire diaphysis. These results suggest that femurs with advanced cortical bone thinning tend to have a concentration of cortical bone in their medial portion. CMD-C was located farther from the diaphysis axis as the degree of medial bending increased. Conversely, the greater the lateral bending of the diaphysis, the closer CMD-C was to the diaphysis axis. As the amount of bone decreases with age, self-adjustment could occur so that the cortical bone's critical area remains to prevent a decrease in mechanical strength.

Mechanostat parameters estimated from time-lapsed in vivo micro-computed tomography data of mechanically driven bone adaptation are logarithmically dependent on loading frequency. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1140673.

Abstract
Mechanical loading is a key factor governing bone adaptation. Both preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated its effects on bone tissue, which were also notably predicted in the mechanostat theory. Indeed, existing methods to quantify bone mechanoregulation have successfully associated the frequency of (re)modeling events with local mechanical signals, combining time-lapsed in vivo micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) imaging and micro-finite element (micro-FE) analysis. However, a correlation between the local surface velocity of (re)modeling events and mechanical signals has not been shown. As many degenerative bone diseases have also been linked to impaired bone (re)modeling, this relationship could provide an advantage in detecting the effects of such conditions and advance our understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Therefore, in this study, we introduce a novel method to estimate (re)modeling velocity curves from time-lapsed in vivo mouse caudal vertebrae data under static and cyclic mechanical loading. These curves can be fitted with piecewise linear functions as proposed in the mechanostat theory. Accordingly, new (re)modeling parameters can be derived from such data, including formation saturation levels, resorption velocity moduli, and (re)modeling thresholds. Our results revealed that the norm of the gradient of strain energy density yielded the highest accuracy in quantifying mechanoregulation data using micro-finite element analysis with homogeneous material properties, while effective strain was the best predictor for micro-finite element analysis with heterogeneous material properties. Furthermore, (re)modeling velocity curves could be accurately described with piecewise linear and hyperbola functions (root mean square error below 0.2 µm/day for weekly analysis), and several (re)modeling parameters determined from these curves followed a logarithmic relationship with loading frequency. Crucially, (re)modeling velocity curves and derived parameters could detect differences in mechanically driven bone adaptation, which complemented previous results showing a logarithmic relationship between loading frequency and net change in bone volume fraction over 4 weeks. Together, we expect this data to support the calibration of in silico models of bone adaptation and the characterization of the effects of mechanical loading and pharmaceutical treatment interventions in vivo.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION X-linked hypophosphatemic (XLH) rickets causes significant bone deformities in the lower limbs resulting from a bone mineralization defect. According to Frost's Mechanostat theory, compensatory modeling of the bones takes place during increased mechanical loads. In addition, mechanical stimuli modulate the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells; common precursors to bone marrow adipocytes and osteoblasts. HYPOTHESIS Bone deformities of the lower limbs lead to increased femoral bone mass and decreased fatty infiltration of the bone marrow (FIBM) in children with XLH rickets compared to a control group. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eleven children (10.3years [6-17]) with XLH rickets and 22 healthy children (10.2years [5-15.5]) underwent lower limb Magnetic Resonance Imaging. A calculation of FIBM was performed at the mid-femur, as well as a calculation of the total bone cross-sectional area (CSA), the cortical CSA, the anteroposterior and mediolateral axes of the femur, bone marrow and the thickness of the femoral cortices. RESULTS Total bone CSA, total cortical CSA and bone marrow CSA were higher in the XLH group than in the control group (p<0.05). The mid-lateral diameters of the femur and bone marrow were more elongated than those of the control group (p<0.001). Only the anterior cortex was thinned in the XLH group (p=0.001), while there was no difference with the control group for the posterior, medial and lateral cortices. The total percentage of FIBM was 72.81% [±3.95] and 77.4% [±5.52] for the XLH and control groups respectively (p<0.001). DISCUSSION The increase in bone mass in the XLH population reflects an adaptation of bone tissue to the bone deformities present in this pathology. The decrease in FIBM indicates a lower risk of osteoporosis in the XLH population and may constitute a new monitoring parameter in this pathology. LEVEL OF STUDY III; Case-control study.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous heritable connective tissue disorder mainly characterized by bone fragility and increased fracture risk. This study investigated bone parameters in adults with OI type I and their relationship with physical activity and muscle function parameters in comparison with controls. A total of 27 (15 women, 12 men) adults with OI type I and 27 healthy age- and sex-matched controls, with mean age 45 years (range 18-72 years), were included. Peripheral quantitative computed tomography was performed at the lower leg and forearm to assess muscle density, muscle and fat cross-sectional area (CSA) (66% site), and trabecular (4% site) and cortical bone parameters (66% site) at radius and tibia. Physical activity (step count and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity [MVPA]) was assessed by accelerometry, muscle function parameters by Leonardo mechanography (single two-legged jump - peak power), and hand grip dynamometry (maximal hand grip strength). Overall, the OI type I group had significantly lower muscle CSA at the lower leg and forearm, lower trabecular and cortical bone mineral content, lower polar stress-strain index (SSIp), and smaller cortices but higher cortical bone mineral density and lower step count and MVPA in comparison with controls. Maximal hand grip strength was positively associated with SSIp at radius (p = 0.012) in the control group but not in the OI type I group (p = 0.338) (difference in associations: p = 0.012). No other significantly different associations between bone and muscle function parameters or physical activity (step count or MVPA) were found in the OI type I versus control group. We conclude that adults with OI type I have smaller bones, lower trabecular bone mass, lower estimates of bone strength, and higher cortical density in comparison with controls and that there are some indications of a disturbed biomechanical muscle-bone relationship in adults with OI type I. © 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study investigates patterns of bone functional adaptations in extant apes through comparing hindlimb to forelimb bone rigidity ratios in groups with varying levels of arboreality. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using CT scans, bone rigidity (J) was calculated at three regions of interest (ROI) along femoral and humeral diaphyses in Homo, Pongo, Pan, and Gorilla with further comparisons made between species and subspecies divisions within Pan and Gorilla. RESULTS Consistent with previous work on extant hominoids, species exhibited differences in midshaft femoral to humeral (F/H) rigidity ratios. Results of the present study confirm that these midshaft differences extend to 35% and 65% diaphyseal ROIs. Modern humans, exhibiting larger ratios, and orangutans, exhibiting smaller ratios, bracketed the intermediate African apes in comparisons. Within some African apes, limb rigidity ratios varied significantly between taxonomic groups. Eastern gorillas exhibited the highest mean ratios and chimpanzees the lowest at all three ROIs. In posthoc comparisons, chimpanzees and bonobos did not differ in relative limb rigidity ratios at any of the three ROIs. However, western gorillas were more similar to bonobos than eastern gorillas at 50% and 35% ROIs, but not at the 65% ROI. CONCLUSION Species, and to a lesser extent subspecies, can be distinguished by F/H limb rigidity ratios according to broad positional behavior patterns at multiple regions of interest along the diaphyses. Similarity of bonobos and western gorillas is in line with behavioral data of bonobos being the most terrestrial of Pan species, and western gorillas the most arboreal of the Gorilla groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exposure to prolonged periods in microgravity is associated with deconditioning of the musculoskeletal system due to chronic changes in mechanical stimulation. Given astronauts will operate on the Lunar surface for extended periods of time, it is critical to quantify both external (e.g., ground reaction forces) and internal (e.g., joint reaction forces) loads of relevant movements performed during Lunar missions. Such knowledge is key to predict musculoskeletal deconditioning and determine appropriate exercise countermeasures associated with extended exposure to hypogravity. OBJECTIVES The aim of this paper is to define an experimental protocol and methodology suitable to estimate in high-fidelity hypogravity conditions the lower limb internal joint reaction forces. State-of-the-art movement kinetics, kinematics, muscle activation and muscle-tendon unit behaviour during locomotor and plyometric movements will be collected and used as inputs (Objective 1), with musculoskeletal modelling and an optimisation framework used to estimate lower limb internal joint loading (Objective 2). METHODS Twenty-six healthy participants will be recruited for this cross-sectional study. Participants will walk, skip and run, at speeds ranging between 0.56-3.6 m/s, and perform plyometric movement trials at each gravity level (1, 0.7, 0.5, 0.38, 0.27 and 0.16g) in a randomized order. Through the collection of state-of-the-art kinetics, kinematics, muscle activation and muscle-tendon behaviour, a musculoskeletal modelling framework will be used to estimate lower limb joint reaction forces via tracking simulations. CONCLUSION The results of this study will provide first estimations of internal musculoskeletal loads associated with human movement performed in a range of hypogravity levels. Thus, our unique data will be a key step towards modelling the musculoskeletal deconditioning associated with long term habitation on the Lunar surface, and thereby aiding the design of Lunar exercise countermeasures and mitigation strategies.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
For biomechanical consideration of dental implants, an understanding of the three-dimensional (3D) load exerted on the implant is essential, but little information is available on the in vivo load, including the measuring devices.
Purpose
This review aimed to evaluate studies that used specific load-measuring devices that could be mounted on an implant to measure the functional load in vivo.
Materials and methods
An electronic search utilizing the internet research databases PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus was performed. The articles were chosen by two authors based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Results
In all, 132 studies were selected from the database search, and 16 were selected from a manual search. Twenty-three studies were finally included in this review after a complete full-text evaluation. Eleven studies were related to the force measurements using the strain gauges, and 12 were related to the piezoelectric force transducer. The principles of the two types of devices were completely different, but the devices produced comparable outcomes. The dynamics of the load magnitude and direction on the implant during function were clarified, although the number of participants in each study was small.
Conclusions
The load exerted on the implant during function was precisely measured in vivo using specific measuring devices, such as strain gauges or piezoelectric force transducers. The in vivo load data enable us to determine the actual biomechanical status in more detail, which might be useful for optimization of the implant prosthetic design and development of related materials. Due to the limited data and difficulty of in vivo measurements, the development of a new, simpler force measurement device and method might be necessary.

Abstract
Energy metabolism is a point of integration among the various organs and tissues of the human body, not only in terms of consumption of energy substrates but also because it concentrates a wide interconnected network controlled by endocrine factors. Thus, not only do tissues consume substrates, but they also participate in modulating energy metabolism. Soft mesenchymal tissues, in particular, play a key role in this process. The recognition that high energy consumption is involved in bone remodeling has been accompanied by evidence showing that osteoblasts and osteocytes produce factors that influence, for example, insulin sensitivity and appetite. Additionally, there are significant interactions between muscle, adipose, and bone tissues to control mutual tissue trophism. Not by chance, trophic and functional changes in these tissues go hand in hand from the beginning of an individual's development until aging. Likewise, metabolic and nutritional diseases deeply affect the musculoskeletal system and adipose tissue. The present narrative review highlights the importance of the interaction of the mesenchymal tissues for bone development and maintenance and the impact on bone from diseases marked by functional and trophic disorders of adipose and muscle tissues.

Abstract
Statement of the problem: Narrow implants have been recommended in high esthetic demand regions to ensure greater buccal bone thickness (BBT) and minimize soft-tissue recession due to insufficient bone support. However, a limited area of bone-implant interface can increase the risk of peri-implant bone resorption due to occlusal forces. Purpose: This article encourages the use of evidence-based finite element analysis to optimize the aesthetic outcomes in maxillary lateral incisor single-supported implant crown by accurate biomechanical planning. This study aimed to analyze the best implant dimensions that would preserve the maximum BBT and avoid peri-implant bone resorption due to occlusal forces. Materials and methods: A maxilla segment was constructed based on anthropological measurements. Four implant diameters (Ø = 3.25; 3.50; 3.75 or 4.00 mm) and two lengths (L = 10 or 13 mm) were simulated. The occlusal force parameters were defined to simulate clinical conditions. The bone resorption risk analysis was based on Frost's mechanostat theory altering the strain output to strain energy density (SED). The peri-implant bone resorption risk indexes (PIBRri) were calculated by dividing the average of the top ten SED elements of the cortical and trabecular buccal wall by the pathologic resorption limit for each bone. Results: For trabecular bone, only the model Ø4.00L13 exhibited a low PIBRri. For cortical bone, all models presented a low PIBRri, except for models Ø3.25. Conclusion: The selection of a 3.25 mm dental implant to preserve a 2 mm BBT should be avoided since it generates a high peri-implant bone resorption risk induced by occlusal overload.

Abstract
There is lack of information about bone mineralization at the lumbar spine and bilateral hips of athletes with unilateral lower limb amputation. The present study assessed for the first time the areal bone mineral density at the lumbar spine and at the hip of the able and impaired leg by means of Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry using a large sample (N = 40) of male athletes. Results showed that bone demineralization in athletes with unilateral lower limb amputation is found at the impaired hip but not at the lumbar spine and may therefore be site-specific. The extent of hip demineralization was influenced by the level of amputation, with about 80% of athletes with above knee amputation and 10% of athletes with below knee amputation showing areal bone mineral density below the expected range for age. Nevertheless, a reduced percentage of fat mass and a lower fat-to-lean mass ratio in the residual impaired leg as well as a greater amount of weekly training was positively associated with bone mineralization at the impaired hip (partial correlation coefficients = 0.377–0.525, p = 0.040–0.003). Results showed that participation in adapted sport has a positive effect on bone health in athletes with unilateral lower limb amputation but is not sufficient to maintain adequate levels of bone mineralization at the impaired hip in athletes with above-knee amputation. Accordingly, physical conditioners should consider implementing sporting programs, according to the severity of the impairment, aimed at improving bone mineralization at the impaired hip and improve body composition in the residual impaired leg.

Abstract
A novel combination of radiographic colour gradient mapping and radiographic absorptiometry was utilised to examine 96 human distal tibiae from 54 individuals ranging in age-at-death from the foetal to 23 years. The purpose of this was to identify previously undocumented changes in the internal organisation during the development of the distal tibia and determine whether these changes could be described as distinct phases. Previous studies have demonstrated a rudimentary structural organisation in other skeletal elements that mirror more mature patterns of bone organisation. Results showed that the perinatal tibia did not exhibit a rudimentary structural pattern similar to the architecture observed within the late adolescent tibia. This lack of early internal organisation is hypothesised to be related to the rudimentary ossification process that is being laid down around a pre-existing vascular template which will be subsequently modified by locomotive forces. Between birth and 2 years of age, the tibia exhibited a period of regression where radiodensity decreased in comparison to the perinatal tibia. This period of regression was postulated to be due to a combination of factors including changing locomotive forces, weaning and growth resulting in a stage of development which is extremely demanding on calcium liberation from the skeleton. After 2 years of age, the distal tibia demonstrated refinement where radiographic trajectories progressively developed into patterns consistent with adult trabecular organisation. These trajectories are linked to the forces associated with the bipedal gait, suggesting a strong influence of biomechanical forces on the development of the distal tibia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of this study were to determine whether lumbar areal bone mineral density differed between cricket fast bowlers with and without lumbar stress fracture, and whether bone mineral density trajectories differed between groups during rehabilitation. DESIGN Cross-sectional and cohort. METHODS 29 elite male fast bowlers received a post-season anteroposterior lumbar dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan and a lumbar magnetic resonance imaging scan to determine stress fracture status. Participants were invited for three additional scans across the 59 weeks post baseline or diagnosis of injury. Bone mineral density was measured at L1 - L4 and ipsilateral and contralateral L3 and L4 sites. Independent-sample t-tests determined baseline differences in bone mineral density and multilevel models were used to examine differences in bone mineral density trajectories over time between injured and uninjured participants. RESULTS 17 participants with lumbar stress fracture had lower baseline bone mineral density at L1 - L4 (7.6 %, p = 0.034) and contralateral sites (8.8-10.4 %, p = 0.038-0.058) than uninjured participants. Bone mineral density at all sites decreased 1.9-3.0 % by 20-24 weeks before increasing to above baseline levels by 52 weeks post injury. CONCLUSIONS Injured fast bowlers had lower lumbar bone mineral density at diagnosis that decreased following injury and did not return to baseline until up to a year post-diagnosis. Localised maladaptation of bone mineral density may contribute to lumbar stress fracture. Bone mineral density loss following injury may increase risk of recurrence, therefore fast bowlers require careful management when returning to play.

Abstract
Flexible spine tethering is a relatively novel fusionless surgical technique that aims to correct scoliosis based on growth modulation due to the pressure exerted on the vertebral body epiphyseal growth plate. The correction occurs in two phases: immediate intraoperative and postoperative with growth. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reactivation of vertebral growth plate function after applying corrective forces. The rat tail model was used. Asymmetric compression and distraction of caudal growth plates were performed using a modified external fixation apparatus. Radiological and histopathological data were analysed. After three weeks of correction, the activity of the structures increased across the entire growth plate width, and the plate was thickened. The height of the hypertrophic layer and chondrocytes on the concave side doubled in height. The height of chondrocytes and the cartilage thickness on the concave and central sides after the correction did not differ statistically significantly from the control group. Initiation of the correction of scoliosis in the growing spine, with relief of the pressure on the growth plate, allows the return of the physiological activity of the growth cartilage and restoration of the deformed vertebral body.

Effect of the prosthetic index on stress distribution in Morse taper connection implant system and peri-implant bone: a 3D finite element analysis. BMC Oral Health 2022; 22:431.

Abstract
Background The combination of a prosthetic index with Morse taper connection was developed, with the purpose of making prosthetic procedures more precise. However, the presence of the index may compromise the mechanical performance of the abutment. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of prosthetic index on stress distribution in implant–abutment-screw system and peri-implant bone by using the 3D finite element methodology. Methods Two commercial dental implant systems with different implant–abutment connections were used: the Morse taper connection with platform switching (MT-PS) implant system and the internal hex connection with platform matching (IH-PM) implant system. Meanwhile, there are two different designs of Morse taper connection abutment, namely, abutments with or without index. Consequently, three different models were developed and evaluated: (1) MT-PS indexed, (2) MT-PS non-indexed, and (3) IH-PM. These models were inserted into a bone block. Vertical and oblique forces of 100 N were applied to each abutment to simulate occlusal loadings. Results For the MT-PS implant system, the maximum stress was always concentrated in the abutment neck under both vertical and oblique loading. Moreover, the maximum von Mises stress in the neck of the MT-PS abutment with index even exceed the yield strength of titanium alloy under the oblique loading. For the IH-PM implant system, however, the maximum stress was always located at the implant. Additionally, the MT-PS implant system has a significantly higher stress level in the abutment neck and a lower stress level around the peri-implant bone compared to the IH-PM implant system. The combined average maximum stress from vertical and oblique loads is 2.04 times higher in the MT-PS indexed model, and 1.82 times for the MT-PS non-indexed model than that of the IH-PM model. Conclusions MT-PS with index will cause higher stress concentration on the abutment neck than that of without index, which is more prone to mechanical complications. Nevertheless, MT-PS decreases stress within cancellous bone and may contribute to limiting crestal bone resorption.

Abstract
Human evolution required adaptation to the boundary conditions of Earth, including 1 g gravity. The bipedal mobility of Homo sapiens in that gravitational field causes ground reaction force (GRF) loading of their lower extremities, influencing the integrity of the tissues of those extremities. However, humans usually experience such loading during the day and then a period of relative unloading at night. Many studies have indicated that loading of tissues and cells of the musculoskeletal (MSK) system can inhibit their responses to biological mediators such as cytokines and growth factors. Such findings raise the possibility that humans use such cycles of acute conditioning and deconditioning of the cells and tissues of the MSK system to elaborate critical mediators and responsiveness in parallel with these cycles, particularly involving GRF loading. However, humans also experience circadian rhythms with the levels of a number of mediators influenced by day/night cycles, as well as various levels of biological clocks. Thus, if responsiveness to MSK-generated mediators also occurs during the unloaded part of the daily cycle, that response must be integrated with circadian variations as well. Furthermore, it is also possible that responsiveness to circadian rhythm mediators may be regulated by MSK tissue loading. This review will examine evidence for the above scenario and postulate how interactions could be both regulated and studied, and how extension of the acute cycles biased towards deconditioning could lead to loss of tissue integrity.

Abstract
Bone and muscle are recognised as interacting tissues, the so-called 'muscle-bone unit', in which these two tissues communicate to coordinate their development (chemically and metabolically), as well as their response to loading or injury. Musculoskeletal disorders of ageing, specifically osteoporosis and sarcopenia, are highly prevalent in older individuals. They signify a significant burden for older people affecting their mobility, confidence, and quality of life, as well as being a major cost to healthcare systems worldwide. This review considers the coexistence of osteoporosis and sarcopenia in individuals and describes risk factors, clinical consequences, approaches to management, and the link with functional capacity.

Friedman MA, Kohn DH. Calcium and phosphorus supplemented diet increases bone volume after thirty days of high speed treadmill exercise in adult mice. Sci Rep 2022; 12:14616.

Abstract
Weight-bearing exercise increases bone mass and strength. Increasing bone loading frequency during exercise can strengthen bone. Combining exercise with a calcium- and phosphorus-supplemented diet increases cortical area more than exercise alone in mice. Thus, we hypothesized that combining high-speed treadmill exercise while feeding mice a mineral-supplemented diet would lead to greater cortical area than high-speed exercise on a standard diet and low-speed exercise on a supplemented diet. Fifteen-week old male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to seven groups—(1) baseline, (2) non-exercise fed a control diet, (3) non-exercise fed a supplemented diet, (4) low-speed exercise fed a control diet, (5) low-speed exercise fed a supplemented diet, (6) high-speed exercise fed a control diet, and (7) high-speed exercise fed a supplemented diet. Mice exercised thirty days for 20 min/day at 12 m/min or 20 m/min. Tibiae were assessed by micro-CT and 4-point bending. Cortical area fraction and trabecular bone volume fraction (BV/TV) were significantly increased by the supplemented diet. High-speed exercised mice had significantly lower body weight, with no detrimental effects to bone health. Increasing running speed can decrease body weight while maintaining the benefits of exercise and nutrition on bone health. Running can lower body weight without harming bone health.

Effects of physical exercise on bone mineral density in older postmenopausal women: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Arch Osteoporos 2022; 17:102. [PMID: 35896850 DOI: 10.1007/s11657-022-01140-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
Osteoporosis or decreased bone mineral density (BMD) is the most important risk factor for fractures, especially in older postmenopausal women (PMW). However, the interactions between exercise training and bone mineral density are not completely understood. We evaluated the effects of physical exercise on BMD in women aged ≥ 60 years postmenopausal. PURPOSE This systematic review and meta-analysis sets out to determine the effects of physical exercise on BMD in older postmenopausal women. METHODS A systematic search was conducted in Medline, Science Direct, Cochrane, PubMed, CINAHL, Google Scholar, Scopus, and ProQuest up to December 25, 2021. Fifty-three studies, which assessed a total of 2896 participants (mean age: between 60 and 82 years), were included and analyzed using a random-effects model to estimate weighted mean differences (WMD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS The meta-analysis found that exercise training significantly (p < 0.05) increased femoral neck (WMD: 0.01 g/cm2; 95% CI, 0.00 to 0.01], p = 0.0005; I2 = 57%; p < 0.0001), lumbar spine (WMD: 0.01 g/cm2, 95% CI, 0.01 to 0.02], I2 = 81%; p = 0.0001), and trochanter (WMD: 0.01 g/cm2, 95% CI 0.00, 0.02]; p = 0.009; I2 = 17%; p = 0.23). There were no significant differences between the intervention and control groups for total body and total hip BMD. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that exercise training may improve bone mineral density in older PMW. This improvement is mediated by increases in the femoral neck, lumbar spine, and trochanter BMD. Further long-term studies are required to confirm these findings.

Introducing the Concept of Exercise Holidays for Human Spaceflight - What Can We Learn From the Recovery of Bed Rest Passive Control Groups. Front Physiol 2022; 13:898430. [PMID: 35874509 PMCID: PMC9307084 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2022.898430] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2022] [Accepted: 06/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
In an attempt to counteract microgravity-induced deconditioning during spaceflight, exercise has been performed in various forms on the International Space Station (ISS). Despite significant consumption of time and resources by daily exercise, including around one third of astronauts’ energy expenditure, deconditioning—to variable extents—are observed. However, in future Artemis/Lunar Gateway missions, greater constraints will mean that the current high volume and diversity of ISS in-flight exercise will be impractical. Thus, investigating both more effective and efficient multi-systems countermeasure approaches taking into account the novel mission profiles and the associated health and safety risks will be required, while also reducing resource requirements. One potential approach is to reduce mission exercise volume by the introduction of exercise-free periods, or “exercise holidays”. Thus, we hypothesise that by evaluating the ‘recovery’ of the no-intervention control group of head-down-tilt bed rest (HDTBR) campaigns of differing durations, we may be able to define the relationship between unloading duration and the dynamics of functional recovery—of interest to future spaceflight operations within and beyond Low Earth Orbit (LEO)—including preliminary evaluation of the concept of exercise holidays. Hence, the aim of this literature study is to collect and investigate the post-HDTBR recovery dynamics of current operationally relevant anthropometric outcomes and physiological systems (skeletal, muscular, and cardiovascular) of the passive control groups of HDTBR campaigns, mimicking a period of ‘exercise holidays’, thereby providing a preliminary evaluation of the concept of ‘exercise holidays’ for spaceflight, within and beyond LEO. The main findings were that, although a high degree of paucity and inconsistency of reported recovery data is present within the 18 included studies, data suggests that recovery of current operationally relevant outcomes following HDTBR without exercise—and even without targeted rehabilitation during the recovery period—could be timely and does not lead to persistent decrements differing from those experienced following spaceflight. Thus, evaluation of potential exercise holidays concepts within future HDTBR campaigns is warranted, filling current knowledge gaps prior to its potential implementation in human spaceflight exploration missions.

Abstract
Both sarcopenia and osteoporosis are common geriatric diseases causing huge socioeconomic burdens, and clinically, they often occur simultaneously. Observational studies have found a controversial correlation between sarcopenia and osteoporosis and their causal relationship is not clear. Therefore, we performed a bi-directional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to assess the potential causal relationship between sarcopenia-related traits (hand grip strength, lean mass, walking pace) and osteoporosis. Our analysis was performed by applying genetic variants obtained from the UK Biobank and the GEnetic Factors for OSteoporosis (GEFOS) datasets. We used inverse-variance weighted (IVW) and several sensitivity analyses to estimate and cross-validate the potential causal relationship in this study. We found that bone mineral density (BMD) was causally positively associated with left-hand grip strength (β = 0.017, p-value = 0.001), fat-free mass (FFM; right leg FFM, β = 0.014, p-value = 0.003; left arm FFM, β = 0.014, p-value = 0.005), but not walking pace. Higher hand grip strength was potentially causally associated with increased LS-BMD (right-hand grip strength, β = 0.318, p-value = 0.001; left-hand grip strength, β = 0.358, p-value = 3.97 × 10-4). In conclusion, osteoporosis may be a risk factor for sarcopenia-related traits and muscle strength may have a site-specific effect on BMD.

Abstract
Children and adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP) are at increased risk of low trauma fractures (LTF) due to low bone mineral content (BMC). The risk of LTFs might be overestimated by only age - and sex adjusted Z-scores for BMC because Z-score based DXA techniques do not take into account other relevant parameters like height, muscle and fat mass. This study aimed to present an update of the functional muscle-bone unit-algorithm (uFMBU-A) to evaluate bone health in children with CP in order to predict the risk of LTF taking into account the parameters sex, age, height, muscle and fat mass. We performed a monocentric retrospective analysis of 177 DXA-scans of children and adolescents with CP aged 8-19. Six of these 177 patients had sustained at least 1 LTF. Age-, sex- and size adjusted Z-scores of total body less head (TBLH)-BMC, lean body mass and fat mass were calculated. The uFMBU-A was applied to the study group and results were compared with established Z-score based DXA-measurements and algorithm based diagnostic techniques concerning the prediction of LTF risk. The uFMBU-A had the greatest diagnostic odds ratio (13.3 [95% CI 2.41; 72.9]) of the evaluated predictors with a sensitivity of 50.0% (95% CI 11.8; 88.2), specifity of 93% (95% CI 88.1; 96.3). The uFMBU-A was the most accurate method of the evaluated parameters to predict LTF in children with CP and is recommended when evaluating bone health.

Abstract
Spinodal architected materials with tunable anisotropy unify optimal design and manufacturing of multiscale structures. By locally varying the spinodal class, orientation, and porosity during topology optimization, a large portion of the anisotropic material space is exploited such that material is efficiently placed along principal stress trajectories at the microscale. Additionally, the bicontinuous, nonperiodic, unstructured, and stochastic nature of spinodal architected materials promotes mechanical and biological functions not explicitly considered during optimization (e.g., insensitivity to imperfections, fluid transport conduits). Furthermore, in contrast to laminated composites or periodic, structured architected materials (e.g., lattices), the functional representation of spinodal architected materials leads to multiscale, optimized designs with clear physical interpretation that can be manufactured directly, without special treatment at spinodal transitions. Physical models of the optimized, spinodal-embedded parts are manufactured using a scalable, voxel-based strategy to communicate with a masked stereolithography (m-SLA) 3D printer.

Creating an Optimal In Vivo Environment to Enhance Outcomes Using Cell Therapy to Repair/Regenerate Injured Tissues of the Musculoskeletal System. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10071570.

Abstract
Following most injuries to a musculoskeletal tissue which function in unique mechanical environments, an inflammatory response occurs to facilitate endogenous repair. This is a process that usually yields functionally inferior scar tissue. In the case of such injuries occurring in adults, the injury environment no longer expresses the anabolic processes that contributed to growth and maturation. An injury can also contribute to the development of a degenerative process, such as osteoarthritis. Over the past several years, researchers have attempted to use cellular therapies to enhance the repair and regeneration of injured tissues, including Platelet-rich Plasma and mesenchymal stem/medicinal signaling cells (MSC) from a variety of tissue sources, either as free MSC or incorporated into tissue engineered constructs, to facilitate regeneration of such damaged tissues. The use of free MSC can sometimes affect pain symptoms associated with conditions such as OA, but regeneration of damaged tissues has been challenging, particularly as some of these tissues have very complex structures. Therefore, implanting MSC or engineered constructs into an inflammatory environment in an adult may compromise the potential of the cells to facilitate regeneration, and neutralizing the inflammatory environment and enhancing the anabolic environment may be required for MSC-based interventions to fulfill their potential. Thus, success may depend on first eliminating negative influences (e.g., inflammation) in an environment, and secondly, implanting optimally cultured MSC or tissue engineered constructs into an anabolic environment to achieve the best outcomes. Furthermore, such interventions should be considered early rather than later on in a disease process, at a time when sufficient endogenous cells remain to serve as a template for repair and regeneration. This review discusses how the interface between inflammation and cell-based regeneration of damaged tissues may be at odds, and outlines approaches to improve outcomes. In addition, other variables that could contribute to the success of cell therapies are discussed. Thus, there may be a need to adopt a Precision Medicine approach to optimize tissue repair and regeneration following injury to these important tissues.
