Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2019; 105:1283-1287. [PMID: 31477444 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2019.06.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2019] [Revised: 05/27/2019] [Accepted: 06/06/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common procedure producing excellent clinical results. Their long-term survival is nevertheless burdened by loosening of the acetabular part caused by changes in the distribution of strains around the cup. In this context the RM-Pressfit® cup has been developed, resulting in a more harmonious distribution of the strains. HYPOTHESIS Texture analysis of X-ray films can evaluate the evolution of trabecular bone micro-architecture during the five years following THA with a RM-Pressfit® cup. MATERIAL AND METHOD A monocentric series of 46 hips was reviewed regularly within five years post- surgery. Radiographic evaluation of the operated hip was done on frontal digitized radiographs of the pelvis to follow evolution of bone micro-architecture in the #2 zone of De Lee and Charnley. Texture analysis using fractal algorithms was done at D0, 6 months, 1, 2 and 5 years post-THA. The fractal methods used included the skyscrapers and the dynamic blanket methods with 3 different structuring elements (a cross, a horizontal and a vertical vector). RESULTS The RM-Pressfit® caused significant changes in the distribution of strains around the acetabulum that preserved the bone volume over a 5-year period post-surgery. This corresponds to an improvement of the trabecular micro-architecture around the acetabular cups. CONCLUSION A statistically significant increase in the four fractal dimensions considered corresponded to an improved trabecular bone micro-architecture revealed by texture analysis, a non-invasive method that can be used on digitized X-ray images. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IIIb, Case control study, retrospective design.

Abstract
Considering the poor medical conditions in some regions of China, this paper attempts to develop a simple and easy way to extract and process the bone features of blurry medical images and improve the diagnosis accuracy of osteoporosis as much as possible. After reviewing the previous studies on osteoporosis, especially those focusing on texture analysis, a convexity optimization model was proposed based on intra-class dispersion, which combines texture features and shape features. Experimental results show that the proposed model boasts a larger application scope than Lasso, a popular feature selection method that only supports generalized linear models. The research findings ensure the accuracy of osteoporosis diagnosis and enjoy good potentials for clinical application.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Botulinum toxin (BTX) is injected into masticatory muscles to treat various conditions. Animal studies have demonstrated bone loss at the condylar and alveolar regions of the mandible after BTX injection into masticatory muscles. The aim of the present study was to investigate mandibular bone changes in patients who received BTX injections in masticatory muscles. STUDY DESIGN Twelve adult patients who received BTX injections into masticatory muscles were included in this study. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was performed before and 12 months after the injection. The condylar and alveolar regions of the mandible were analyzed by using texture analysis of the CBCT images with the run length method. Condylar cortical thickness was measured, and 3-dimensional analysis of the mandible was also performed. Six patients who did not receive BTX injections were used as controls. RESULTS A run length parameter (gray level nonuniformity) was found to be increased in condylar and alveolar bones. A significant cortical thinning was found at the anterior portion of the right condyle. Three-dimensional analysis showed significant changes in the condylar bone and at the digastric fossa. No changes in mandibular angles were found. CONCLUSIONS This study identified mandibular bone changes in adult patients who received BTX injection into masticatory muscles.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVE To determine risk factors that may affect the rate of pedicle screws loosening in patients with degenerative diseases of the lumbar spine. METHODS A total of 250 patients with a low-grade spondylolisthesis and lumbar instability associated with degenerative diseases were enrolled. Preoperatively patients underwent computed tomography (CT) and cancellous bone radiodensity of a vertebral body was measured in Hounsfield units (HU). Pedicle screw fixation was used to treat patients either with a posterior fusion only or in combination with transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF), anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF), and direct lateral interbody fusion (D-LIF). Minimal follow-up period accounted for 18 months. Cases with screw loosening were registered assessing association with risk factors using logistic regression. RESULTS The rate of screw loosening was in positive correlation with the number fused levels and decreasing bone radiodensity. Fusion with a greater load-bearing surface cage was associated with the decrease in rate of pedicle screws loosening. Incomplete reduction in case of spondylolisthesis, bilateral facet joints removal, and laminectomy performed without anterior support favored pedicle screws loosening development. The estimated model classifies correctly 79% of cases with the specificity and sensitivity accounting for 87% and 66% respectively. CONCLUSIONS The decreasing bone radiodensity in Hounsfield units has a considerable correlation with the rate of pedicle screws loosening. On the other hand, the length of fixation and applied surgical technique including fusion type also have a significant impact on complication rate. Spinal instrumentations should be planned by taking into account all potential risk factors and not characteristics relevant to bone quality assessment alone.

Abstract
Interaction of cells with extracellular matrix is an essential event for differentiation, proliferation and activity of osteoblasts. In bone, binding of osteoblasts to bone matrix is required to determine specific activities of the cells and to synthesize matrix bone proteins. Integrins are the major cell receptors involved in the cell linkage to matrix proteins such as fibronectin, type I collagen and vitronectin, via the RGD-sequences. In this study, cultures of osteoblast-like cells (Saos-2) were done on coated glass coverslips in various culture conditions: DMEM alone or DMEM supplemented with poly-L-lysine (PL), fetal calf serum (FCS), fibronectin (FN), vitronectin (VN) and type I collagen (Col-I). The aim of the study was to determine the specific effect of these bone matrix proteins on cell adherence and morphology and on the cytoskeleton status. Morphological characteristics of cultured cells were studied using scanning electron microscopy and image analysis. The heterogeneity of cytoskeleton was studied using fractal analysis (skyscrapers and blanket algorithms) after specific preparation of cells to expose the cytoskeleton. FAK and MAPK signaling pathways were studied by western blotting in these various culture conditions. Results demonstrated that cell adhesion was reduced with PL and VN after 240 min. After 60 min of adhesion, cytoskeleton organization was enhanced with FN, VN and Col-I. No difference in FAK phosphorylation was observed but MAPK phosphorylation was modulated by specific adhesion on extracellular proteins. These results indicate that culture conditions modulate cell adhesion, cytoskeleton organization and intracellular protein pathways according to extracellular proteins present for adhesion.
