Non-cannulated versus cannulated cancellous screws for the internal fixation of femoral neck fractures in osteoporotic patients: A single-blind randomized clinical trial. J Orthop 2024; 51:32-38. [PMID: 38299065 PMCID: PMC10825919 DOI: 10.1016/j.jor.2023.11.074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 11/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 02/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The incidence of femoral neck fractures in osteoporotic patients is rising worldwide and is associated with significant increases in healthcare and social costs, as well as dependency. Improving minimally invasive treatment strategies, including internal fixation with screws, can result in favorable clinical outcomes and lesser incidence of complications, while preserving the hip. This study compared the outcomes of using non-cannulated cancellous screws (NCS) and cannulated cancellous screws (CS) in the internal fixation of undisplaced intracapsular femoral neck fractures (UIFNF) of osteoporotic patients of Iranian descent. Methods This randomized clinical trial was conducted on the patients referring to an institutional tertiary hospital in northwestern Iran between March 2020 and June 2021. The patients' preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative characteristics were evaluated for at least two years. Primary endpoints were defined as the incidence of hip-related complications, while secondary endpoints were assessed based on the patients' hip function using Harris Hip Score (HHS). Results Fifty-seven patients with osteoporosis and UIFNF were included in the final analysis, with 27 patients in the NCS group and 30 patients in the CS group. The surgical duration, the amount of intraoperative blood loss, and the frequency of C-arm were considerably lower in the CS group (p < 0.05). The incidence of implant failure was higher in the NCS group (p = 0.04). Screw migration occurred more frequently in the CS group (p = 0.03). The HHS values were significantly higher for the NCS group than those of the CS group at both the 1-year and 2-years of follow-up assessments (1 year, p = 0.007; 2 years, p = 0.001). Conclusion Fixation using CS was accompanied by enhanced perioperative outcomes and lower implant failure rates compared to the NCS group. However, patients in the NCS group posed a reduced risk of complications, including screw migration, and experienced a long-term improvement in HHS scores.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Many studies have reported conflicting results for the use of tramadol with the risk of fractures, especially hip fractures. This systematic review and meta-analysis study aimed to evaluate the association of tramadol use versus codeine use with the risk of hip fracture for the first time. METHODS PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Web of Science databases were searched with specific keywords to find studies that examined the association of tramadol use with hip fracture risk in patients with osteoarthritis up to May 2023. The risk of hip fracture secondary to tramadol versus codeine use was estimated based on age and sex. This systematic review was conducted based on the PRISMA checklist. Heterogeneity between studies was evaluated using Cochran's Q and I2 tests. Egger's test was used to check publication bias. The Newcastle-Ottawa Checklist (NOS) was used to assess the quality of the studies. FINDINGS Ten studies with 1,939,293 participants were reviewed. The majority of participants were female. Based on the study evaluation checklist, most studies were of good quality. Tramadol use significantly increases the overall risk of hip fracture. (HR: 1.32, 95% CI: 1.14, 1.51, P: 0.001, I2:19.3%) Tramadol use significantly increases the risk of hip fracture in men (HR: 1.48, 95% CI: 1.24, 1.73, P: 0.001 I2:35%) and age ≤65 years (HR: 1.63, 95% CI: 1.45, 1.80, P: 0.001, I2:0%). CONCLUSION The use of tramadol significantly increases the risk of hip fracture. This increased risk of hip fracture was greater in males younger than 65 years.

Abstract
Skeletal stem/progenitor cell (SSPC) senescence is a major cause of decreased bone regenerative potential with aging, but the causes of SSPC senescence remain unclear. In this study, we revealed that macrophages in calluses secrete prosenescent factors, including grancalcin (GCA), during aging, which triggers SSPC senescence and impairs fracture healing. Local injection of human rGCA in young mice induced SSPC senescence and delayed fracture repair. Genetic deletion of Gca in monocytes/macrophages was sufficient to rejuvenate fracture repair in aged mice and alleviate SSPC senescence. Mechanistically, GCA binds to the plexin-B2 receptor and activates Arg2-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction, resulting in cellular senescence. Depletion of Plxnb2 in SSPCs impaired fracture healing. Administration of GCA-neutralizing antibody enhanced fracture healing in aged mice. Thus, our study revealed that senescent macrophages within calluses secrete GCA to trigger SSPC secondary senescence, and GCA neutralization represents a promising therapy for nonunion or delayed union in elderly individuals.

Abstract
Poly(glycerol sebacate) is a biocompatible elastomer that has gained increasing attention as a potential biomaterial for tissue engineering applications. In particular, PGS is capable of providing shape memory effects and allows for a free form, which can remember the original shape and obtain a temporary shape under melting point and then can recover its original shape at body temperature. Because these properties can easily produce customized shapes, PGS is being coupled with implants to offer improved fixation and maintenance of implants for fractures of osteoporosis bone. Herein, this study fabricated the OP implant with a PGS membrane and investigated the potential of this coupling. Material properties were characterized and compared with various PGS membranes to assess features such as control of curing temperature, curing time, and washing time. Based on the ISO 10993-5 standard, in vitro cell culture studies with C2C12 cells confirmed that the OP implant coupled with PGS membrane showed biocompatibility and biomechanical experiments indicated significantly increased pullout strength and maintenance. It is believed that this multifunctional OP implant will be useful for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The incidence of intertrochanteric fractures is increasing, and health institutions must know the profile of their patients. This paper describes the relationship between clinical characteristics and attention process with surgical delay and prolonged hospitalization length in patients with intertrochanteric fractures admitted to a Latin-American trauma center. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective, comparative, cross-sectional study. The medical records of patients admitted for intertrochanteric fracture between August 1st 2019 and May 31st 2021 were reviewed to extract data regarding clinical characteristics, causes of surgery delay, and hospitalization length. Regression models were used to distinguish potential predictor variables on surgical delay and hospitalization length. RESULTS 362 cases with intertrochanteric fractures were surgically treated during the study period. The mean time from admission to surgery was 4.2 ± 3.8 days. in 33,1% of the cases the surgery was performed within the first 48 h. A history of coronary heart disease (CHD) and chronic kidney disease were potential predictors of surgery delay (p<0.005). Only CHD was independently associated with surgery delay (OR 5.267 [95%CI 1.201-23.100); p = 0.028). Hospitalization was extended in cases where surgery was performed after 48 h (10,1 ± 6,2 days vs 5,9 ± 3,0 days; p<0.001). The regression model showed that for each day passed from fracture to admission and each day from admission to surgery, the hospitalization duration increased by 3,7 and 4,4 days, respectively. DISCUSSION Patients with intertrochanteric fractures have comorbidities that potentially delay their surgical treatment and prolong hospitalization duration. The efficient use of hospital resources and the proper early evaluation of cardiac pathologies conducted during admission, could positively impact the achievement of surgical treatment within the first 48 h after the fracture, reducing hospitalization duration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The relationship between abdominal adipose tissue and osteoporosis is poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to examine the associations of abdominal adipose tissue with bone mineral density (BMD) among a nationally representative sample of US middle-aged adults. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study included 1498 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2014 and 2017-2018. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry was used to measure BMD at the lumbar spine and femoral neck, as well as to assess abdominal adipose mass by categorizing total adipose tissue (TAT) into visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT). Linear regression was used to assess the relationship between abdominal adipose tissue and BMD, and logistic regression and generalized additive model were used to assess the associations of abdominal adipose tissue with the development of low BMD. RESULTS In our study, men accounted for 51.3%, and the mean age and body mass index for men and women were 49.3 and 49.6 years, and 23.9 and 28.3 kg/m2, respectively. In the univariate model, we found that abdominal adipose mass was positively associated with BMD at femoral neck and spine in both genders. In the multivariate model, among men, a negative correlation was observed between TAT and SAT and BMD at the femoral neck. Additionally, higher masses of TAT, SAT, and VAT were found to significantly increase the risk of low BMD at both the femoral neck and lumbar spine. In contrast, there was no significant association between abdominal adipose mass and BMD in middle-aged women, regardless of menopausal status. CONCLUSIONS Our finding suggested that abdominal adipose tissue, regardless of its location (SAT or VAT), may have a negative impact on BMD in middle-aged men independently of body weight, but this relationship was not observed in women. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and investigate potential mechanisms underlying these associations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To investigate the association between soft drinks, tea and coffee consumption, and risk of fracture in the China Health and Nutrition Survey. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cross-sectional study with multi-stage random cluster sampling was conducted in nine Chinese provinces in 2004, 2006, 2009 and 2011. A total of 36,740 participants were included the data analyses. Self-administered questionnaires and physical examinations provided data on beverages consumption, fracture history, and other potential risk factors. Binary logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) adjusted for potentially confounding variables. RESULTS The prevalence of fracture increased over the 7-year period of the surveys, with 1833 (5.3%) participants reporting a fracture history. Soft drink consumption increased over this time period, and tea consumption was relatively stable, whereas coffee consumption tended to increase sharply. Consumers of soft drinks ≥ 3 times/week (versus never) had a higher risk of fracture (OR = 1.86, 95% CI = 1.43-2.32, p < 0.001, p for trend = 0.039). Consumers of tea ≥ 5 cups/day (versus never) also had a higher risk of fracture (OR = 1.21, 95% CI = 1.09-1.45, p = 0.028, p for trend < 0.001). Similarly, consumers of coffee ≥ 2 cups/day (versus never) had a higher risk of fracture (OR = 1.84, 95% CI = 1.01-3.34, p = 0.045, p for trend = 0.002). Subgroup analyses by gender suggested that coffee consumption increased risk of fracture in females (OR = 1.84, 95% CI = 1.32-2.63, p = 0.001). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that high consumption of soft drinks, tea and coffee is associated with an increased risk of fracture in the Chinese population. Which has important public health implications given the widespread consumption of these beverages.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip fractures are associated with a high risk of death; among those who survive a hip fracture, many experience substantial decreases in quality of life. A comprehensive understanding of the epidemiology and burden of hip fractures by country, age, gender, and sociodemographic factors would provide valuable information for healthcare policymaking and clinical practice. The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study 2019 was a global-level study estimating the burden of 369 diseases and injuries in 204 countries and territories. An exploration and additional analysis of the GBD 2019 would provide a clearer picture of the incidence and burden of hip fractures. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES Using data from the GBD 2019, we asked, (1) What are the global, regional, and national incidences of hip fractures, and how did they change over a recent 30-year span? (2) What is the global, regional, and national burden of hip fractures in terms of years lived with disability, and how did it change over that same period? (3) What is the leading cause of hip fractures? (4) How did the incidence and years lived with disability of patients with hip fractures change with age, gender, and sociodemographic factors? METHODS This was a cross-sectional study. Participant data were obtained from the GBD 2019 ( http://ghdx.healthdata.org/gbd-results-tool ). The GBD study is managed by the WHO, coordinated by the Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation, and funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. It estimates the burden of disease and injury for 204 countries by age, gender, and sociodemographic factors, and can serve as a valuable reference for health policymaking. All estimates and their 95% uncertainty interval (UI) were produced using DisMod-MR 2.1, a Bayesian meta-regression tool in the GBD 2019. In this study, we directly pulled the age-standardized incidence rate and years lived with disability rate of hip fractures by location, age, gender, and cause from the GBD 2019. Based on these data, we analyzed the association between the incidence rate and latitude of each country. Then, we calculated the estimated annual percentage change to represent trends from 1990 to 2019. We also used the Spearman rank-order correlation analysis to determine the correlation between the incidence or burden of hip fractures and the sociodemographic index, a composite index of the income per capita, average years of educational attainment, and fertility rates in a country. RESULTS Globally, hip fracture incidences were estimated to be 14.2 million (95% UI 11.1 to 18.1), and the associated years lived with disability were 2.9 million (95% UI 2.0 to 4.0) in 2019, with an incidence of 182 (95% UI 142 to 231) and 37 (95% UI 25 to 50) per 100,000, respectively. A strong, positive correlation was observed between the incidence rate and the latitude of each country (rho = 0.65; p < 0.001). From 1990 to 2019, the global incidence rate for both genders remained unchanged (estimated annual percentage change 0.01 [95% confidence interval -0.08 to 0.11]), but was slightly increased in men (estimated annual percentage change 0.11 [95% CI 0.01 to 0.2]). The years lived with disability rate decreased slightly (estimated annual percentage change 0.66 [95% CI -0.73 to -0.6]). These rates were standardized by age. Falls were the leading cause of hip fractures, accounting for 66% of all patients and 55% of the total years lived with disability. The incidence of hip fractures was tightly and positively correlated with the sociodemographic index (rho 0.624; p < 0.001), while the years lived with disability rate was slightly negatively correlated (rho -0.247; p < 0.001). Most hip fractures occurred in people older than 70 years, and women had higher incidence rate (189.7 [95% UI 144.2 to 247.2] versus 166.2 [95% UI 133.2 to 205.8] per 100,000) and years lived with disability (38.4 [95% UI 26.9 to 51.6] versus 33.7 [95% UI 23.1 to 45.5] per 100,000) than men. CONCLUSION Hip fractures are common, devastating to patients, and economically burdensome to healthcare systems globally, with falls being the leading cause. The age-standardized incidence rate has slightly increased in men. Many low-latitude countries have lower incidences, possibly because of prolonged sunlight exposure. Policies should be directed to promoting public health education about maintaining bone-protective lifestyles, enhancing the knowledge of osteoporosis management in young resident physicians and those in practice, increasing the awareness of osteoporosis screening and treatment in men, and developing more effective antiosteoporosis drugs for clinical use. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, prognostic study.

[PMID: 37069682 PMCID: PMC10108543 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-023-03795-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 04/19/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) are acknowledged as novel inflammatory markers. However, studies investigating the correlation between inflammatory markers and osteoporosis (OP) remain scarce. We aimed to investigate the relationship between NLR, MLR, PLR and bone mineral density (BMD). METHODS A total of 9054 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were included in the study. MLR, NLR and PLR were calculated for each patient based on routine blood tests. Given the complex study design and sample weights, the relationship between inflammatory markers and BMD was evaluated through weighted multivariable-adjusted logistic regression and smooth curve fittings. In addition, several subgroup analyses were conducted to assess the robustness of the outcomes. RESULTS This study observed no significant relationship between MLR and lumbar spine BMD (P = 0.604). However, NLR was positively correlated with lumbar spine BMD (β = 0.004, 95% CI: 0.001 to 0.006, P = 0.001) and PLR was negatively linked to lumbar spine BMD (β = - 0.001, 95% CI: - 0.001 to - 0.000, P = 0.002) after accounting for covariates. When bone density measurements were changed to the total femur and femoral neck, PLR was still significantly positively correlated with total femur (β = - 0.001, 95% CI: - 0.001, - 0.000, P = 0.001) and femoral neck BMD (β = - 0.001, 95% CI: - 0.002, - 0.001, P < 0.001). After converting PLR to a categorical variable (quartiles), participants in the highest PLR quartile had a 0.011/cm2 lower BMD than those in the lowest PLR quartile (β = - 0.011, 95% CI: - 0.019, - 0.004, P = 0.005). According to subgroup analyses stratified by gender and age, the negative correlation with PLR and lumbar spine BMD remained in males and age < 18 groups, but not in female and other age groups. CONCLUSIONS NLR and PLR were positively and negatively correlated with lumbar BMD, respectively. And PLR might serve as a potential inflammatory predictor of osteoporosis outperforming MLR and NLR. The complex correlation between the inflammation markers and bone metabolism requires further evaluation in large prospective studies.

CNN-based evaluation of bone density improves diagnostic performance to detect osteopenia and osteoporosis in patients with non-contrast chest CT examinations. Eur J Radiol 2023; 161:110728. [PMID: 36773426 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2023.110728] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2022] [Revised: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE As osteoporosis is still underdiagnosed by clinicians and radiologists, the aim of the present study was to assess the performance of an Artificial intelligence (AI)-based Convolutional Neuronal Network (CNN)-Algorithm for the detection of low bone density on routine non-contrast chest CT in comparison to clinical reports using DEXA scans as reference. METHOD This retrospective cross-sectional study included patients who underwent non-contrast chest CT and DEXA between April 2018 and June 2018 (n = 109, 19 men, mean age: 67.7 years). CT studies were evaluated for thoracic vertebral bone pathologies using a CNN-Algorithm, which calculates the attenuation profile of the spine. The content of the radiological reports was evaluated for the description of osteoporosis or osteopenia. DEXA was used as the reference standard. To estimate correlation the Spearman test was used and the comparison of the different groups was performed using the Wilcoxon rank sum test. Diagnostic was evaluated by performing a receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS The DEXA examination revealed normal bone density in 42 patients, while 49 patients had osteopenia and 7 osteoporosis. There was a statistically significant correlation between the mean CNN-based attenuation of the thoracic spine and the bone density measured on the DEXA in the hip (r = 0.51, p < 0.001) and lumbar spine (r = 0.34, p = 0.01). The mean attenuation was significantly higher in patients with normal bone density (172 ± 44.5 HU) compared to those with osteopenia or osteoporosis (125.2 ± 33.8 HU), (p < 0.0001). Diagnostic performance in distinguishing normal from abnormal bone density was higher using the CNN-based vertebral attenuation (accuracy 0.75, sensitivity: 0.93, specificity: 0.61) compared to clinical reports (accuracy 0.51, sensitivity: 0.14, specificity: 0.53). CONCLUSION CNN-based evaluation of bone density may provide additional value over standard clinical reports for the detection of osteopenia and osteoporosis in patients undergoing routine non-contrast chest CT scans. This additional value could improve identification of fracture risk and subsequent treatment.

Abstract
Improving local bone mineral density (BMD) at fracture-prone sites of bone is a clinical concern for osteoporotic fracture prevention. In this study, a featured radial extracorporeal shock wave (rESW) responsive nano-drug delivery system (NDDS) is developed for local treatment. Based on a mechanic simulation, a sequence of hollow zoledronic acid (ZOL)-contained nanoparticles (HZNs) with controllable shell thickness that predicts various mechanical responsive properties is constructed by controlling the deposition time of ZOL and Ca2+ on liposome templates. Attributed to the controllable shell thickness, the fragmentation of HZNs and the release of ZOL and Ca2+ can be precisely controlled with the intervention of rESW. Furthermore, the distinct effect of HZNs with different shell thicknesses on bone metabolism after fragmentation is verified. In vitro co-culture experiments demonstrate that although HZN2 does not have the strongest osteoclasts inhibitory effect, the best pro-osteoblasts mineralization results are achieved via maintaining osteoblast-osteoclast (OB-OC) communication. In vivo, the HZN2 group also shows the strongest local BMD enhancement after rESW intervention and significantly improves bone-related parameters and mechanical properties in the ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteoporosis (OP) rats. These findings suggest that an adjustable and precise rESW-responsive NDDS can effectively improve local BMD in OP therapy.

Abstract
Skeletal disabilities are a prominent burden on the present population with an increasing life span. Advances in osteopathy have provided various medical support for bone-related diseases, including pharmacological and prosthesis interventions. However, therapeutics and post-surgery complications are often reported due to side effects associated with modern-day therapies. Thus, therapies utilizing natural means with fewer toxic or other side effects are the key to acceptable interventions. Flavonoids constitute a class of bioactive compounds found in dietary supplements, and their pharmacological attributes have been well appreciated. Recently, flavonoids' role is gaining renowned interest for its effect on bone remodeling. A wide range of flavonoids has been found to play a pivotal role in the major bone signaling pathways, such as wingless-related integration site (Wnt)/β-catenin, bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)/transforming growth factor (TGF)-β, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), etc. However, the reduced bioavailability and the absorption of flavonoids are the major limitations inhibiting their use against bone-related complications. Recent utilization of nanotechnological approaches and other delivery methods (biomaterial scaffolds, micelles) to target and control release can enhance the absorption and bioavailability of flavonoids. Thus, we have tried to recapitulate the understanding of the role of flavonoids in regulating signaling mechanisms affecting bone remodeling and various delivery methods utilized to enhance their therapeutical potential in treating bone loss.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic bone disease caused by various factors, including, the decrease of bone density and quality, the destruction of bone microstructure, and the increase of bone fragility. It is a disease with a high incidence in a large proportion of the world's elderly population. However, osteoporosis lacks obvious symptoms and sensitive biomarkers. Therefore, it is extremely urgent to discover and identify disease-related biomarkers for early clinical diagnosis and effective intervention for osteoporosis. In our study, the Linear Models for Microarray Data (LIMMA) tool was used to screen differential expressed genes from transcriptome sequencing data of OP blood samples downloaded from the GEO database, and cluster Profiler was used for enriching analysis of differently expressed genes. In order to analyzed the relevance of gene modules, clinical symptoms, and the most related module setting genes associated with disease progression, we adapted Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) to screen and analyze the related pathways and relevant molecules. We used the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins (STRING) database to construct protein interaction network of key modules, and Cytoscape software was used to complete network visualization and screen of core genes in the network. Various plug-in algorithms of cytoHubba were used to identify key genes of OP. Finally, correlation analysis and single-gene gene probe concentration analysis (GSEA) analysis were performed for each core gene. Results of a total of 8 key genes that were closely related to the occurrence and development of OP were screened out, which provided a brand-new idea for the clinical diagnosis and early prevention of OP. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed for validation, the expression levels of CUL1, PTEN and STAT1 genes in the OS group were significantly higher than in the non-OS groups. Receiver operating characteristic analysis demonstrated that CUL1, PTEN and STAT1 displayed considerable diagnostic accuracy for OS.

Abstract
Background: The occurrence of bone fractures is increasing worldwide, mainly due to the health problems that follow the aging population. The use of additive manufacturing and electrical stimulators can be applied for bioactive achievements in bone healing. However, such technologies are difficult to be transferred to medical practice. This work aims to develop an orthosis with a combined magnetic field (CFM) electrostimulator that demonstrates concepts and design aspects that facilitate its use in a real scenario. Methods: A 3D-printed orthosis made of two meshes was manufactured using PLA for outer mechanical stabilization mesh and TPU for inner fixation mesh to avoid mobilization. A CFM stimulator of reduced dimension controlled by a mobile application was coupled onto the orthosis. The design concepts were evaluated by health professionals and their resistance to chemical agents commonly used in daily activities were tested. Their thermal, chemical and electrical properties were also characterized. Results: No degradation was observed after exposure to chemical agents. The CMF achieved proper intensity (20-40 µT). The thermal analysis indicated its appropriate use for being modelled during clinical assessment. Conclusion: An orthosis with a coupled electrostimulator that works with a combined magnetic field and is controlled by mobile application was developed, and it has advantageous characteristics when compared to traditional techniques for application in real medical environments.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is one of the frequently encountered non-communicable diseases in the world today. Several hundred million people have osteoporosis, with many more at risk. The clinical feature is a fragility fracture (FF), which results in major reductions in the quality and quantity of life, coupled with a huge financial burden. In recognition of the growing importance, the World Health Organisation established a working group 30 years ago tasked with providing a comprehensive report to understand and assess the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most widely endorsed technology for assessing the risk of fracture or diagnosing osteoporosis before a fracture occurs, but others are available. In clinical practice, important distinctions are essential to optimise the use of risk assessments. Traditional tools lack specificity and were designed for populations to identify groups at higher risk using a 'one-size-fits-all' approach. Much has changed, though the purpose of risk assessment tools remains the same. In 2022, many tools are available to aid the identification of those most at risk, either likely to have osteoporosis or suffer the clinical consequence. Modern technology, enhanced imaging, proteomics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and big data science will greatly advance a more personalised risk assessment into the future. Clinicians today need to understand not only which tool is most effective and efficient for use in their practice, but also which tool to use for which patient and for what purpose. A greater understanding of the process of risk assessment, deciding who should be screened, and how to assess fracture risk and prognosis in older men and women more comprehensively will greatly reduce the burden of osteoporosis for patients, society, and healthcare systems worldwide. In this paper, we review the current status of risk assessment, screening and best practice for osteoporosis, summarise areas of uncertainty, and make some suggestions for future developments, including a more personalised approach for individuals.

Zhang Y, Mao X, Yu X, Huang X, He W, Yang H. Bone mineral density and risk of breast cancer: A cohort study and Mendelian randomization analysis. Cancer 2022; 128:2768-2776. [PMID: 35511874 DOI: 10.1002/cncr.34252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2021] [Revised: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 04/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Estrogen is involved in both bone metabolism and breast cancer proliferation. However, evidence about the risk of breast cancer according to women's bone mineral density (BMD) is scarce, and little is known about their causal associations. METHODS Women participating in the UK Biobank cohort were used to investigate the association between BMD and the risk of breast cancer using Cox regression models. Instrumental variants associated with estimated BMD (eBMD) were extracted from genome-wide association studies with European ancestry. Logistic regression was used to calculate the genetic association with breast cancer in the UK Biobank and 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses to assess their causal associations with breast cancer. Finally, the pleiotropic conditional false discovery rate (cFDR) method was conducted to further detect common genetic variants between BMD and breast cancer. RESULTS Compared with the general population, postmenopausal women with BMD T scores <-2.5 had a lower risk of breast cancer (hazard ratio [HR], 0.77; 95% CI, 0.59-1.00), and this effect was stronger in women with fracture (HR, 0.31; 95% CI, 0.12-0.82). In MR analysis, no causal associations between eBMD and breast cancer were observed. The cFDR method identified 63 pleiotropic loci associated with both BMD and breast cancer, of which CCDC170, ESR1, and FTO might play crucial roles in their pleiotropy. CONCLUSIONS An association between BMD and the risk of postmenopausal breast cancer in the UK Biobank was observed, whereas no evidence supported their causal association. Instead, their association could be explained by pleiotropic genetic variants leading to the pathology of osteoporosis and breast cancer.

Fragility Fracture Systems: International Perspectives - Asia & Australia. OTA Int 2022; 5:e195. [PMID: 35949496 PMCID: PMC9359027 DOI: 10.1097/oi9.0000000000000195] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2021] [Revised: 12/23/2021] [Accepted: 01/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Background: The incidence and burden of fragility fractures have reached the level where comprehensive systematic care is warranted to optimize the care of these patients. Hip fractures are the most frequently lethal and independence level changing fragility fractures, responsible for 30-day mortality comparable to high-energy trauma patients with injury severity scores over 12. It is a reasonable expectation that countries have a hip fracture treating system of care in place for this high-risk population. This review explores the systems of care from the Asia-Pacific Perspective. Methods: From the International Orthopaedic Trauma Association's member societies, nations from the Asia-Pacific Region were requested to contribute with an overview of their fragility fracture management systems. The content or the review was standardized by a template of headings, which each country endeavored to cover. Results: Australia, Japan, and South Korea contributed voluntarily from the 5 member countries of the region. Each country has made considerable efforts and achievements with diverse approaches to standardize and improve the care of fragility fractures, particularly hip fractures. Beyond the individual nations’ efforts there is also an existing Asia-Pacific Collaborative. The data collection and in some counties the existence of a registry is promising; funding and recognition of the problem among competing health care budget priorities are common. Conclusions: Our review covers some of the countries with strongest economy and highest health care standards. The lack of a universal robust system for hip fracture care is apparent. The data collection from registry initiations is expected to drive system development further in these countries and hopefully fast track the development in other countries within the most populous geographical region of the Earth.

The influence of weight-bearing status on post-operative mobility and outcomes in geriatric hip fracture. Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg 2022; 48:4093-4103. [PMID: 35290469 PMCID: PMC9532285 DOI: 10.1007/s00068-022-01939-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Accepted: 02/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
Purpose We hypothesized that unrestricted or full weight-bearing (FWB) in hip fracture would increase the opportunity to mobilize on post-operative day 1 (POD1mob) and be associated with better outcomes compared with restricted weight-bearing (RWB). Methods Over 4 years, 1514 geriatric hip fracture patients aged 65 and above were prospectively recruited. Outcomes were compared between FWB and RWB patients. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality. Secondary outcomes were immobility-related adverse events, length of stay (LOS), and reoperation for failure. Causal effect modelling and multivariate regression with mediation analyses were performed to examine the relation between weight-bearing status (WBS), POD1mob, and known mortality predictors. Results FWB was allowed in 1421 (96%) of 1479 surgically treated patients and RWB enforced in 58 (4%) patients. Mortality within 30 days occurred in 141 (9.9%) of FWB and 3 (5.2%) of RWB patients. In adjusted analysis, RWB did not influence 30-day mortality (OR 0.42, 95% CI 0.15–01.13, p = 0.293), with the WBS accounting for 91% of the total effect on mortality and 9% contributed from how WBS influenced the POD1mob. RWB was significantly related to increased DVT (OR 7.81, 95% CI: 1.81–33.71 p = 0.002) but no other secondary outcomes. Patients that did not have the opportunity to mobilize had increased 30-day mortality (OR 2.31, 95% CI 1.53–3.48 p < 0.001). Conclusion Restricted weight-bearing was not associated with increased 30-day mortality. Only a small proportion of this effect was mediated by POD1mob. Whilst post-surgical WBS may be difficult to influence for cultural reasons, POD1mob is an easily modifiable target that is likely to have a greater effect on 30-day mortality. Level of evidence Level III, observational study.

J Cell Mol Med 2021; 26:60-74. [PMID: 34854215 PMCID: PMC8742188 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.16982] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2021] [Revised: 09/16/2021] [Accepted: 09/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Recent evidence indicates that the abnormal differentiation of bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis. LncRNA SNHG1 has been found to be associated with the differentiation ability of BMSCs. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the role of lncRNA SNHG1 and its associated pathway on the differentiation of BMSCs in osteoporosis. Mice that underwent bilateral ovariectomy (OVX) were used as models of osteoporosis. Induced osteogenic or adipogenic differentiation was performed in mouse BMSCs. Compared to sham animals, lncRNA SNHG1 expression was upregulated in OVX mice. Also, the in vitro expression of SNHG1 was increased in adipogenic BMSCs but decreased in osteogenic BMSCs. Moreover, overexpression of SNHG1 enhanced the adipogenic capacity of BMSCs but inhibited their osteogenic capacity as determined by oil red O, alizarin red, and alkaline phosphatase staining, while silencing of SNHG1 led to the opposite results. LncRNA SNHG1 interacting with the RNA‐binding polypyrimidine tract‐binding protein 1 (PTBP1) promoted osteoprotegerin (Opg) methylation and suppressed Opg expression via mediating DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) 1. Furthermore, Opg was showed to regulate BMSC differentiation. Knockdown of SNHG1 decreased the expressions of adipogenic related genes but increased that of osteogenic related genes. However, the knockdown of Opg partially reversed those effects. In summary, lncRNA SNHG1 upregulated the expression of DNMT1 via interacting with PTBP1, resulting in Opg hypermethylation and decreased Opg expression, which in turn enhanced BMSC adipogenic differentiation and contributed to osteoporosis.

Utility of Osteoporosis Self-Assessment Tool as a Screening Tool for Osteoporosis in Irish Men and Women: Results of the DXA-HIP Project. J Clin Densitom 2021; 24:516-526. [PMID: 33789806 DOI: 10.1016/j.jocd.2021.03.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2020] [Revised: 02/24/2021] [Accepted: 03/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Many algorithms have been developed and publicised over the past 2 decades for identifying those most likely to have osteoporosis or low BMD, or at increased risk of fragility fracture. The Osteoporosis Self-assessment Tool index (OSTi) is one of the oldest, simplest, and widely used for identifying men and women with low BMD or osteoporosis. OSTi has been validated in many cohorts worldwide but large studies with robust analyses evaluating this or other algorithms in adult populations residing in the Republic of Ireland are lacking, where waiting times for public DXA facilities are long. In this study we evaluated the validity of OSTi in men and women drawn from a sampling frame of more than 36,000 patients scanned at one of 3 centres in the West of Ireland. 18,670 men and women aged 40 years and older had a baseline scan of the lumbar spine femoral neck and total hip available for analysis. 15,964 (86%) were female, 5,343 (29%) had no major clinical risk factors other than age, while 5,093 (27%) had a prior fracture. Approximately 2/3 had a T-score ≤-1.0 at one or more skeletal sites and 1/3 had a T-score ≤-1.0 at all 3 skeletal sites, while 1 in 5 had a DXA T-score ≤-2.5 at one or more skeletal sites and 5% had a T-score ≤-2.5 at all 3 sites. OSTi generally performed well in our population with area under the curve (AUC) values ranging from 0.581 to 0.881 in men and 0.701 to 0.911 in women. The performance of OSTi appeared robust across multiple sub-group analyses. AUC values were greater for women, proximal femur sites, those without prior fractures and those not taking osteoporosis medication. Optimal OSTi cut-points were '2' for men and '0' for women in our study population. OSTi is a simple and effective tool to aid identification of Irish men and women with low BMD or osteoporosis. Use of OSTi could improve the effectiveness of DXA screening programmes for older adults in Ireland.

Abstract
Nobiletin (NOB) is polymethoxy flavonoids, which plentifully there in Citrus depressa and they demonstrate numerous pharmacological effects. NOB has an anti-proliferative effect, attenuates ovalbumin-treated eosinophilic airway inflammation and Type II collagen treated arthritis. NOB noticeably inhibits bone resorption and renovates bone loss in mice model, but role of NOB in bone metabolism is unclear. Human bone is a important organ that sustains its homeostasis among bone resorpting osteoclasts and bone developing osteoblasts. The balances of among these two kind of cell outcomes are implicated in bone remodeling. The current study designed to explore possessions of NOB on differentiation and proliferation of MG-63 cells and contribution of morphogenetic protein signaling. Cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT, mineralization analysis by alizarin red staining and morphogenetic signaling protein by RT-PCR. No stimulus outcome of NOB on cell proliferation was found at days of 1, 3 and 7. Accumulation of calcium was augmented after that treatment of NOB. The mRNA expression of BMP-2, COL-I, ALP, OCN, RUNX2 and COL1A1 augmented markedly with NOB supplement. Hence, NOB can stimulate osteogenic differentiation of MG-63, almost certainly by promoting RUNX2 and BMP-2 signaling and this result might provide to its action on stimulation of osteoblast development, differentiation and augments of bone mass.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is becoming a highly prevalent disease in a large proportion of the global aged population. Serum metabolite markers may be important for the treatment and early prevention of osteoporosis. Serum samples from 32 osteoporosis and 32 controls were analyzed by untargeted metabolomics and lipidomic approaches performed on an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography and high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS) system. To find systemic disturbance of osteoporosis, weighted gene correlation network analysis (WGCNA) and statistical methods were employed for data-mining. Then, an in-depth targeted method was utilized to determine potential markers from the family of key metabolites. As a result, 1,241 metabolites were identified from untargeted methods and WGCNA indicated that lipids metabolism is deregulated and glycerol phospholipids, sphingolipids, fatty acids, and bile acids (BA) are majorly affected. As key metabolites of lipids metabolism, 66 bile acids were scanned and 49 compounds were quantified by a targeted method. Interestingly, hyocholic acids (HCA) were found to play essential roles during the occurrence of osteoporosis and may be potential markers. These metabolites may be new therapeutic or diagnosis targets for the screening or treatment of osteoporosis. Quantified measurement of potential markers also enables the establishment of diagnostic models for the following translational research in the clinic.

Abstract
AIM Osteoporosis is a major risk factor for fractures. Poor persistence with osteoporosis medication hampers outcomes. This study assessed whether encouraging the formation of patient-led follow-up cooperatives between general practitioners (GPs) and community pharmacists improved medication persistence. METHODS All consecutive patients who attended an osteoporosis patient education program were invited to participate. They were given a logbook containing questionnaires they would bring to 6-monthly visits to their GP and pharmacist. The effect of this 3-year cooperative follow-up on persistence with medication and lifestyle changes was assessed. RESULTS In total, 121 patients (average age, 67 years; 93% female) participated. Poor cooperation between GPs and pharmacists was noted. Nevertheless, medication persistence ranged from 83% to 91% over the 6 visits. However, since patient drop-out rates were high and questionnaire return rates were low, a post-study medical chart review was performed. This confirmed that persistence was high (74%-83%) at 3 years post-enrollment, even for oral bisphosphonate-treated patients (73%-76%). However, adoption of anti-osteoporosis lifestyle changes was poor throughout the study: one- to two-thirds of the patients did not alter their diet, physical activity, or surroundings to prevent falls. CONCLUSION One study goal, namely, to encourage GPs and pharmacists to cooperate in patient follow-up, was not achieved. However, high medication persistence was observed. This may reflect the education program, patient empowerment, personalized attention from study personnel, and being in a study. Patient-centered approaches can thus significantly increase medication persistence in osteoporosis. Ongoing education may be needed to improve patient adoption of and persistence with lifestyle changes.

Abstract
We examined whether bone health is related to protein intake from different sources by utilising a distinct, rare dietary pattern: avoidance of animal foods for approximately half of the year according to Christian Orthodox Church fasting. Four-hundred adults, of whom 200 had been following religious fasting for a median of 15 years and 200 were non-fasters, underwent anthropometry, measurements of bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC), and completed a food frequency questionnaire. Groups did not differ significantly in anthropometric measures, BMD, or BMC. Fasters had higher consumption of seafood and lower consumption of red meat, poultry-eggs, dairy products, and grains-cereals than non-fasters. Protein intake from these food groups exhibited similar differences; overall, fasters had lower protein intake than non-fasters. BMD and BMC were positively, though weakly, correlated with red meat and poultry-egg consumption. Thus, protein intake seems to play a minor (if any) role in bone health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is the focus and difficult problem in the world at present, and we found that Chinese patent medicine(CPM) shown a more miraculous effect. Many kinds of Chinese patent medicine have been proved to be effective in the treatment of this disease, but it is still unclear which kind of Chinese patent medicine has the best effect. Therefore, we propose a network meta-analysis (NMA) protocol to observe the efficacy of various CPM for this disease and provide guidance for clinical practice. METHODS We will use the NMA method to complete this study. First, all the randomized controlled trials of CPM or CPM combined with western medicine in the treatment of PMOP were collected by searching all online Chinese and English databases. The information time limit is from the establishment of the database to August 30, 2020. Then 2 staff members will sift through all the literature and analyze the data using Stata and Winbugs. RESULTS Through this analysis, we will observe and rank the clinical effects of different CPM for PMOP. The main evaluation indexes include: New fracture, Quality of life, Severe side effects, Death from all causes. Secondary outcome indicators include Bone Mineral density, clinical efficiency, and some laboratory indicators, such as estradiol, serum calcium, serum, etc. CONCLUSION:: This study will rank the therapeutic effects of various proprietary Chinese medicines in the treatment of PMOP, which will be helpful in improving the PMOP treatment regimen.INPLASY registration number: INPLASY202090047.

Early Osteoporosis Risks and Associated Factors among Caregivers Working in Disability Institutions: IOF One-Minute Osteoporosis Risk Check. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17093319. [PMID: 32397604 PMCID: PMC7246724 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17093319] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2020] [Revised: 05/06/2020] [Accepted: 05/08/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
This study employed the International Osteoporosis Foundation's One-Minute Osteoporosis Risk Test to examine factors related to the osteoporosis risk of institutional caregivers. In this cross-sectional study, a self-developed structured questionnaire comprising the One-Minute Osteoporosis Risk Test was used to obtain data on the caregivers' demographic data, health habits, working style, and osteoporosis risk. Seven disability welfare institutions were selected as research sites, and 465 copies of questionnaires were distributed to the institutions' employees, with 455 valid responses collected for a valid return rate of 98%. SPSS for Windows (Version 20.0) was used to analyze questionnaire data; descriptive-statistical frequency, a χ2 test, and logistic regression were used to determine the correlation between demographic data, health habits, working style, and osteoporosis risk. The results revealed that primary risk factors include < 30 min of daily exercise (38%), lack of dairy product or calcium tablet intake (28%), and < 10 min of daily outdoor activity or not taking vitamin D supplements (29.9%). In total, 395 (86.8%) of the respondents scored less than 5 in the osteoporosis risk test; the remaining 60 (13.2%) scored 5 or higher, revealing a high risk of early osteoporosis. An independent variable analysis revealed that the risk factors of early osteoporosis include age, education level, having undergone bone density tests, prior disease diagnosis, long-term medication use, physical fitness, dietary habits, and average time of exposure to sunlight. In the multivariate analysis, poor physical fitness (odds ratio [OR] = 2.18, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.12-4.27, p = 0.023) and average daily time of exposure to sunlight (OR = 0.24, 95% CI: 0.59-2.59, p < 0.001) were significantly correlated with osteoporosis risk. In other words, respondents with poor physical fitness were 2.18 times as likely to have osteoporosis as those with good physical fitness, and those exposed to sunlight for 30 min or longer every day were 0.24 times as likely to have osteoporosis as those exposed to sunlight for less than 30 min every day. Accordingly, institutions must encourage employees to spend more time in the sun every day and improve their physical fitness through exercise.
