Abstract
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA), the highly prevalent degenerative disease affecting the joint, perpetually devastates the health of the elderly. Of various mechanisms known to participate in KOA etiology, apoptosis of chondrocytes is widely regarded as the primary cause of cartilage degradation. It has been suggested that the induction of autophagy in chondrocytes could potentially prolong the progression of KOA by modulating intracellular metabolic processes, which may be helpful for ameliorating chondrocyte apoptosis and eventual cartilage degeneration. Autophagy, a physiological process characterized by intracellular self-degradation, has been reportedly implicated in various pathologic conditions including KOA. Interestingly, vitamin D has been shown to regulate autophagy in human chondrocytes through multiple pathways, specifically AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway. This observation underscores the potential of vitamin D as a novel approach for restoring the functionality and survivability of chondrocytes in KOA. Supporting vitamin D's clinical significance, previous studies have demonstrated its substantial involvement in the symptoms and irregular joint morphology observed in KOA patients, strengthening potential therapeutic efficacy of vitamin D in treatment of KOA. Herein, the purpose of this review was to determine the mechanisms underlying the multi-processes of vitamin D implicated in autophagy in several cells including chondrocytes, which would bring unique insights into KOA pathogenesis.

Abstract
"Low levels of vitamin D in patients with osteoarthritis (ΟΑ) rather adversely affect the structure and function of articular cartilage. Low levels of vitamin D are also associated with joint pain, limited physical activity, quality of life, as well as decreased muscle strength, primarily in the lower extremities with adverse OA progression. A high percentage of low vitamin D levels was found in patients with OA and joint arthroplasty as well as a less satisfactory postoperative follow-up in patients with low vitamin D levels. The administration of vitamin D supplementation in patients with knee osteoarthritis has been associated with improved articular cartilage architecture, and reduced joint pain, combined with improved functionality and quality of life in patients with OA.

Abstract
Muscle atrophy and sarcopenia (the term given to the age-related decline in muscle mass and function), influence an individuals risk of falls, frailty, functional decline, and, ultimately, impaired quality of life. Vitamin D deficiency (low serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D3)) has been reported to impair muscle strength and increase risk of sarcopenia. The mechanisms that underpin the link between low 25(OH)D3 and sarcopenia are yet to be fully understood but several lines of evidence have highlighted the importance of both genomic and non-genomic effects of active vitamin D (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D3)) and its nuclear vitamin D receptor (VDR), in skeletal muscle functioning. Studies in vitro have demonstrated a key role for the vitamin D/VDR axis in regulating biological processes central to sarcopenic muscle atrophy, such as proteolysis, mitochondrial function, cellular senescence, and adiposity. The aim of this review is to provide a mechanistic overview of the proposed mechanisms for the vitamin D/VDR axis in sarcopenic muscle atrophy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hip fractures are associated with functional decline and increased mortality. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of zoledronic acid and high-dose vitamin D on function and mortality after hip fractures. PATIENTS AND METHODS Forty-five patients received zoledronic acid and high dose of vitamin D during hospitalization after fracture management. These patients were compared with a control group of 46 patients. Pre- and postoperative prospectively collected data including ASA score, Charlson comorbidity score, presence of dementia, Vitamin D, and the Barthel index were available. Final follow-up was performed after one year. Primary outcome was patients' function at final follow-up as measured with Barthel index score. Secondary outcomes included mortality, assessment of pain, and complications. RESULTS Barthel index score at final follow-up was decreased in both groups. There was no significant difference in Barthel index between the two groups (15.5 ± 5.0 vs 15.8 ± 5.8, p = 0.850). However, the Barthel index in the control group decreased beyond the smallest detectable change (3 points). Mortality was statistically different between groups (8.8% vs 28.2%, p = 0.047). Complications and pain at final follow-up were not different between groups. Multivariate analysis revealed that preoperative Barthel index and Charlson comorbidity score independently affected function at final follow-up. Logistic regression analysis disclosed that not receiving active treatment and complications were associated with increased mortality. CONCLUSIONS Medical treatment after surgical management of hip fractures results in reduced mortality and lessens the functional decline associated with these fractures.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint degenerative disease. Vitamin D (VD) is essential for bone health. We hypothesized that active VD could be used as a therapeutic treatment for OA. Low serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] have been found in patients with OA, and thus the serum level of VD could be diagnostic of OA. To test this, we established a mouse model of OA. The results from staining with hematoxylin–eosin and Safranin O – Fast Green indicated that active VD reduced the symptoms of OA in mice. The results from Western blotting indicated that treatment with VD increased the activity of the p-AMPK–AMPK signaling pathway and decreased the p-mTOR–mTOR pathway; it also increased the ratio of LC3II:LC3I antibodies and the protein expression levels of Beclin-1, but decreased the level of p62. Further, treatment with VD reduced the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 both in cartilage tissues and in chondrocytes. Administration of the AMPK inhibitor compound C and autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine (3-MA) reversed these changes following VD treatment. In addition, the results from transfection with mRFP-GFP-LC3 indicated that active VD led to autophagosome aggregation in OA chondrocytes. 3-MA inhibited cell autophagy and promoted inflammation in OA. This study provides evidence that active VD activate chondrocyte autophagy to reduce OA inflammation via activating the AMPK–mTOR signaling pathway. Treatment with active VD could be a novel therapeutic option for OA.

Abstract
Low bone health is associated with vitamin D deficiency in older individuals; however, this association is not well established in adults. The aim of the study was to analyze the association between serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D and bone health in adults by systematic review and meta-analysis. The search was carried out in the LILACS, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, ScienceDirect databases from March 2017 to October 2018 with adult individuals (20-59 years). Bone health was evaluation performed through dual X-ray absorptiometry and serum concentrations of 25(OH)D. The random effect model was used to analyze data from bone mineral content and bone mineral. Random effects models were used and the sources of heterogeneity were explored by means of meta-regression. Thirty-five articles were selected. There was positive correlation between vitamin D and bone health in most of the evaluated sites. Correlation was observed in the analysis of subgroups for lumbar spine among men. When stratified, the studies presented high heterogeneity, which was explained by the sample size, mean serum vitamin D levels and risk of bias. Vitamin D is positively correlated to bone health in adult individuals.

Abstract
Objective:
Levels of Vitamin D may influence the development of knee osteoarthritis (OA), which is one of the most common joint diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between serum Vitamin D deficiency and knee OA in Ardabil and Iran. Methods: One hundred fifty-eight consecutive patients referred to rheumatology clinic of Ardabil City Hospital were recruited in the study. All the participants underwent x-rays in two anterior-posterior and side views of the knees. Staging of knee OA was done according to Kellgren-Lawrence criteria. Seventy-nine individuals with clinical and radiographic signs of knee OA were defined as the case group, and those without clinical and radiographic signs of the disease were defined as a control group. Haematology and biochemical profile including measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D serum level was performed in the participants. Results: The mean age of patients and controls were 54.12 ± 4.67 and 55.37 ± 5.12 years, respectively. The average serum vitamin D in OA patients and controls were 26.8±6.2 ng/ml and 28.1±5.3ng/ml, respectively (p=0.36). There was a significant association between serum vitamin D and staging of knee OA (p=0.001). Based on vitamin D levels, most of patients with vitamin D deficiency were in stages III and IV. Conclusion: The findings of the study suggest that vitamin D deficiency should be considered in patients with OA and treated accordingly.

Abstract
Objective Vitamin D deficiency is linked with pain, function, and radiographic progression of knee osteoarthritis (KOA), but the results of studies addressing the association and effect of vitamin D supplementation for pain, function, quality of life, radiographic disease, and progression are inconsistent. The aim of this review is to determine the therapeutic and preventive potential of vitamin D supplementation in KOA. Method Eligible pertinent English language studies published in 2000 and thereafter in Medline/PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar were selected by using keywords that include “knee osteoarthritis,” “vitamin D supplementation,” “pain,” “structural abnormalities,” “treatment,” and “progression.” Results The results of a few studies showed a preventive potential for vitamin D in KOA, but most of the randomized clinical trials that assessed the therapeutic efficacy of vitamin D supplementation in KOA found no clear therapeutic effect, with the exception of one study that found a small but significant effect of vitamin D on pain and knee function. Nonetheless, the results of a few longitudinal studies as well as systematic reviews are promising and thus encourage further studies. Inconsistent results on the effect of vitamin D on KOA may be attributed to factors such as severity of KOA, baseline level of serum vitamin D, duration of treatment, and vitamin D dosages. Conclusion Given the multiple skeletal and extraskeletal benefits of vitamin D supplementation in elderly people, the issue of vitamin D supplementation in KOA requires further study to elucidate the dosage and duration of treatment that provides the most effective therapeutic effect.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Vitamin D plays an important role in the musculoskeletal system of the human body. Here, we review the most current literature on vitamin D as it relates to orthopaedic surgery and the musculoskeletal system, focusing largely on non-fracture applications. MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature review was performed on the basic science of vitamin D metabolism, epidemiology of vitamin D levels, role of vitamin D within the musculoskeletal system, and the correlation of vitamin D with injuries and orthopaedic surgical outcomes. RESULTS The existing literature suggests vitamin D plays multiple roles in the musculoskeletal system. Recent research has shed light on the importance of vitamin D in the setting of soft tissue healing and recovery in addition to affecting postoperative outcomes after common orthopaedic procedures. CONCLUSIONS Given the widespread prevalence of vitamin D deficiency, orthopaedic surgeons should be aware of the current evidence regarding clinical implications in patients with musculoskeletal complaints.
