Abstract
Bone marrow edema (BME) is a frequent MRI finding in patients with knee pain. According to the etiology, BME of the knee can be classified into three main categories: ischemic, mechanic, and reactive. The diagnosis may be difficult, because of the specificity of symptoms and the poor radiographic findings. MRI is the gold standard, showing an area of altered signal of the bone with an high signal intensity on fat-suppressed, T2 weighted images, usually in combination with an intermediate or low signal intensity on T1 weighted images. Bone marrow edema tends to be self-limiting and, in most cases, resolves without any consequences in a varying amount of time. However, since it may evolve to complete joint destruction, early diagnosis and correct treatment are crucial to prevent the articular degeneration. Conservative therapy is the first step, with no weight-bearing for 3 to 6 weeks on the affected side, in combination with the administration of anti-inflammatory drugs or painkillers to manage symptoms. In non-responding forms and more advanced stages, minimally invasive preservative surgery can provide significant results, with subchondroplasty and core decompression being the two main procedures available. Knee arthroplasty, both total (TKA) or unicompartmental (UKA), is the only effective option when the degradation of cartilage is diffuse and in patients with subchondral bone collapse.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a common refractory orthopedic disease, which is one of the common causes of hip pain and dysfunction. ONFH has a very high disability rate, which is associated with a heavy burden to patients, families, and society. The pathogenesis of ONFH is not completely clear. At present, it is believed that it mainly includes coagulation dysfunction, abnormal lipid metabolism, an imbalance of osteogenic/adipogenic differentiation, and poor vascularization repair. The prevention and treatment of ONFH has always been a great challenge for clinical orthopedic surgeons. However, recent studies have emphasized that the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to treat steroid-induced ONFH (SONFH) is a promising therapy. This review focuses on the role and molecular mechanism of epigenetic regulation in the progress of MSCs in the treatment of SONFH, and discusses the significance of the latest research in the treatment of SONFH from the perspective of epigenetics.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a multifactorial disease leading to severely limited function. By far, the etiology and pathogenesis of ONFH are not fully understood, and surgery is the only effective way to treat ONFH. This study aims to identify hub genes and therapeutic drugs in ONFH. Two gene expression profiles were downloaded from the gene expression omnibus database, and the hub genes and candidate drugs for ONFH were identified through integrated bioinformatics analysis and cross-validated by literature mining. A total of 159 DEGs were identified. PTGS2, LRRK2, ANXA5, IGF1R, MCL1, TIMP2, LYN, CD68, CBL, and RUNX2 were validated as 10 hub genes, which has considerable implications for future genetic research and related research fields of ONFH. Our findings indicate that 85 drugs interact with ONFH, with most drugs exhibiting a positive impact on ONFH by promoting osteogenesis and angiogenesis or inhibiting microcirculation embolism, rather than being anti-inflammatory. Our study provides novel insights into the pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of ONFH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) involves young or middle-aged adults, and its incidence is increasing along with increasing use of steroids in the management of organ transplantation and adjuvant therapy for malignant neoplasms. To date, no pharmacological agent has been proven to prevent or retard the progression of ONFH, and surgical procedures including joint preservation procedures and hip arthroplasties are main treatments for the disease. Although ONFH is the most common or second most common disease for hip arthroplasty in East Asian countries, the trend of surgical procedures in this region remains unknown. Thus, we evaluated trends in surgical treatment of the disease in South Korea. METHODS We identified patients with ONFH from the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment (HIRA) database, a nationwide medical claims database of South Korea, between January 2007 and December 2018 and calculated the proportions of following surgical procedures at each year: total hip arthroplasty (THA), hemiarthroplasty (HA), core decompression/multiple drilling, femoral osteotomy, and vascularized bone grafting. RESULTS The total number of procedures increased from 3,824 in 2007 to 6,929 in 2018. Overall, the rate of THA (86%) was far greater than other procedures. From 2007 to 2018, the percentage of THA among the procedures increased from 80% to 91%, while that of joint preservation procedures decreased from 11% to 5%. CONCLUSIONS The total number of surgical procedures performed for ONFH increased and the percentage of THA increased, while that of joint preservation procedures decreased from 2007 to 2018 in South Korea.

High-energy focused extracorporeal shock wave prevents the occurrence of glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head: A prospective randomized controlled trial. J Orthop Translat 2022; 36:145-151. [PMID: 36263382 PMCID: PMC9550842 DOI: 10.1016/j.jot.2022.08.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2022] [Revised: 07/28/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Studies have shown that high-energy focused extracorporeal shock wave therapy (HF-ESWT) has a certain therapeutic effect on glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). This study aimed to observe the efficacy and safety of HF-ESWT as a precautionary measure to reduce the probability of glucocorticoid-induced ONFH. Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was designed to evaluate whether HF-ESWT (Group A) can significantly prevent the incidence of glucocorticoid-induced ONFH relative to a control group without shockwave intervention (Group B). MRI was used to assess whether all participants experienced ONFH at 3, 6, and 12 months after the intervention. Continuous scoring was used to evaluate the intervention results: the 10-cm visual analog scale (VAS) was used to evaluate pain, and the hip Harris score (HHS) was used to evaluate the function of the hip joint. Any adverse events were recorded. Results 153 patients (89 females and 64 males) who had been allocated to group A (75 patients) or Group B (78 patients) were included in the final analysis. The patients were 45.0 ± 13.0 years old. There were significant differences between the two groups in MRI diagnosis of ONFH patients (2 cases in Group A, 9 cases in Group B; p = 0.034). Significant differences between groups were found in bilateral hip function measured using the HHS at 6 months (Left p = 0.026; Right p = 0.033) and 12 months (Left p = 0.018; Right p = 0.038). However, there was no difference in the functional results measured at 3 months and the VAS at any points. Conclusions This study confirms that HF-ESWT can be successfully used to reduce the probability of glucocorticoid-induced ONFH. Pain and hip dysfunction are common clinical manifestations when ONFH is unavoidable. Therefore, HF-ESWT can be recommended for the prevention and intervention of ONFH high-risk populations receiving high-dose glucocorticoid therapy. The Translational potential of this article The effective prevention of HF-ESWT on ONFH after high-dose glucocorticoid application demonstrated its transformation potential as a preventive method in the clinical prevention of glucocorticoid-induced ONFH.

Abstract
Steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is a progressive disease that leads to an increased disability rate. This study aimed to ascertain biomarkers, infiltrating immune cells, and therapeutic drugs for SONFH. The gene expression profile of the GSE123568 dataset was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using the NetworkAnalyst platform. Functional enrichment, protein-protein interaction network (PPI), and module analyses were performed using Metascape tools. An immune cell abundance identifier was used to explore immune cell infiltration. Furthermore, hub genes were identified based on maximal clique centrality (MCC) evaluation using cytoHubba application and confirmed by qRT-PCR using clinical samples. Finally, the L1000 platform was used to determine potential drugs for SONFH treatment. The SONFH mouse model was used to determine the therapeutic effects of aspirin. In total, 429 DEGs were identified in SONFH samples. Functional enrichment analysis showed that these DEGs were enriched in myeloid leukocyte activation and osteoclast differentiation processes. A set of nine immune cell types was confirmed to be markedly different between the SONFH and control samples. All 10 hub genes were significantly highly expressed in the serum of SONFH patients, as shown by qRT-PCR. Finally, the therapeutic effect of aspirin on SONFH was examined in animal experiments. Taken together, our data revealed the hub genes and infiltrating immune cells in SONFH, and we also screened potential drugs for use in SONFH treatment.

Abstract
Although many studies have shown that hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy can significantly improve symptoms and quality of life of patients affected by femoral head necrosis, this therapy is not worldwide approved yet. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate its clinical effect. Relevant studies published before May 2020 were systematically searched using terms related to HBO and femoral head necrosis. Fixed and random-effects models were used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Subgroup analyses and publication bias tests were carried out to explore potential study heterogeneity and bias. Ten studies involving 353 controls and 368 HBO-treated cases were included, most of which were conducted on Asian population. The clinical effect in the HBO therapy group was 3.84 times higher than in the control group (OR = 3.84, 95% CI (2.10, 7.02), p < 0.00001). Subgroup analyses showed that the clinical effect of HBO therapy was statistically significant in the Asian subpopulation which represented most of the subjects (OR = 3.53, 95% CI (1.87, 6.64), p < 0.00001), but not in the non-Asian subpopulation, probably because of insufficient numerosity (OR = 7.41, 95% CI (0.73, 75.71), p = 0.09). The results of this meta-analysis suggest that patients with femoral head necrosis treated with HBO therapy can achieve a significant clinical improvement.

Abstract
The authors prospectively assessed long-term anticoagulation outcomes (≥3 years) for 9 patients meeting 4 inclusion criteria: pretreatment Ficat stage I or II primary hip osteonecrosis (ON), factor V Leiden or prothrombin G20210A heterozygosity, no contraindication to anticoagulation, and 90-day participation in an initial enoxaparin 60 mg/d protocol. The primary endpoint was prevention of hip collapse (Ficat stage III or IV). The secondary endpoint was pain relief. After 90 days of enoxaparin 60 mg/d, anticoagulation was continued for 8 patients: 4 receiving warfarin (international normalized ratio targeted to 2 to 2.5; 11.5, 13, 14.5, and 21 years), 1 receiving enoxaparin 120 mg/d (11.5 years), and 3 receiving novel oral anticoagulants (5, 6, and 8 years). Radiographs were obtained before treatment; at 3 to 4, 6 to 8, and 12 to 14 months; and then annually. By selection, 8 patients had factor V Leiden heterozygosity and 1 had prothrombin G202010A heterozygosity. Of their 13 hips (Ficat I or II at entry), 12 remained Ficat I or II after 12±5 years (range, 5.5-21 years) of continuous anticoagulation and follow-up; 1 hip radiographically normalized. None of the 13 hips progressed to collapse (Ficat III or IV). Six patients became symptom free after the first 3 months of receiving enoxaparin, 1 after 6 months of anticoagulation, and 1 after 10 months of anticoagulation; all 8 patients remained symptom free with anticoagulation. Anticoagulation for primary hip ON before hip collapse in patients with familial thrombophilia may change the natural history of ON because most untreated patients with ON have joint collapse and total joint replacement within 2 years of original symptoms.

Abstract
➢. Clinicians should exercise a high level of suspicion in at-risk patients (those who use corticosteroids, consume excessive alcohol, have sickle cell disease, etc.) in order to diagnose osteonecrosis of the femoral head in its earliest stage. ➢. Nonoperative treatment modalities have generally been ineffective at halting progression. Thus, nonoperative treatment is not appropriate in early stages when one is attempting to preserve the native joint, except potentially on rare occasions for small-sized, medially located lesions, which may heal without surgery. ➢. Joint-preserving procedures should be attempted in early-stage lesions to save the femoral head. ➢. Cell-based augmentation of joint-preserving procedures continues to show promising results, and thus should be considered as an ancillary treatment method that may improve clinical outcomes. ➢. The outcomes of total hip arthroplasty in the setting of osteonecrosis are excellent, with results similar to those in patients who have an underlying diagnosis of osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Background Various pharmacological treatments have been suggested to treat osteonecrosis of the femoral head. However, their practicability remains a controversial issue. Methods We systemically reviewed articles published during last 20 years to assess the efficacy and safety of the pharmacological treatments. Results To date, enoxaparin, statins, bisphosphonates, iloprost and acetylsalicylic acid have been practiced for the treatment of osteonecrosis. However, none of them were proven to be effective by high level studies, and most of them have adverse reactions. Conclusions No pharmacological prevention or treatment of osteonecrosis is recommendable at this moment.

Abstract
Objectives This study is aimed at evaluating whether core decompression of the femoral head in the early stages of femoral head osteonecrosis improves patients’ subjective perception of pain and avoids the progression of the disease to a femoral head collapse and a final indication of total hip arthroplasty. Methods Eighteen patients (30 hips) in the early stages of the disease (Ficat and Arlet 1 and 2A) were evaluated through clinical, radiological, risk factor maintenance, and by the functional Merle D’Aubigné, and Postel score before and after core decompression of the femoral head. Results There was an improvement of symptoms up to the sixth month in 83.3% of the hips evaluated through the Merle D’Aubigné and Postel score. However, 73.3% of the cases evolved with femoral head collapse, and in 50%, total hip arthroplasty was indicated regardless of whether or not the risk factors were maintained. Conclusions Core decompression of the femoral head improves patients’ pain early in the initial stages of the pathology. However, it does not alter the prognosis and the ultimate indication of total hip arthroplasty in the final stages of the disease.

Abstract
Reducing oxidative stress (ROS) have been demonstrated effective for steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (steroid-induced ONFH). Selenium (Se) plays an important role in suppressing oxidative stress and has huge potential in ONFH treatments. However the Se has a narrow margin between beneficial and toxic effects which make it hard for therapy use in vivo. In order to make the deficiency up, a control release of Se (Se@SiO2) were realized by nanotechnology modification. Porous Se@SiO2 nanocomposites have favorable biocompatibility and can reduced the ROS damage effectively. In vitro, the cck-8 analysis, terminal dexynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) stain and flow cytometry analysis showed rare negative influence by porous Se@SiO2 nanocomposites but significantly protective effect against H2O2 by reducing ROS level (detected by DCFH-DA). In vivo, the biosafety of porous Se@SiO2 nanocomposites were confirmed by the serum biochemistry, the ROS level in serum were significantly reduced and the curative effect were confirmed by Micro CT scan, serum Elisa assay (inflammatory factors), Western blotting (quantitative measurement of ONFH) and HE staining. It is expected that the porous Se@SiO2 nanocomposites may prevent steroid-induced ONFH by reducing oxidative stress.

Abstract
The goal for this study was to evaluate safety regarding anticoagulant activity and platelet activation during daily consumption of an aqueous cyanophyta extract (ACE), containing a high dose of phycocyanin. Using a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study design, 24 men and women were enrolled after informed consent, and consumed either ACE (2.3 g/day) or placebo daily for 2 weeks. The ACE dose was equivalent to ∼1 g phycocyanin per day, chosen based on the highest dose Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Consuming ACE did not alter markers for platelet activation (P-selectin expression) or serum P-selectin levels. No changes were seen for activated partial thromboplastin time, thrombin clotting time, or fibrinogen activity. Serum levels of aspartate transaminase (AST) showed a significant reduction after 2 weeks of ACE consumption (P < .001), in contrast to placebo where no changes were seen; the difference in AST levels between the two groups was significant at 2 weeks (P < .02). Reduced levels of alanine transaminase (ALT) were also seen in the group consuming ACE (P < .08). Previous studies showed reduction of chronic pain when consuming 1 g ACE per day. The higher dose of 2.3 g/day in this study was associated with significant reduction of chronic pain at rest and when physically active (P < .05). Consumption of ACE showed safety regarding markers pertaining to anticoagulant activity and platelet activation status, in conjunction with rapid and robust relief of chronic pain. Reduction in AST and ALT suggested improvement in liver function and metabolism.

Abstract
Avascular necrosis (AVN) is a rare presenting feature of endogenous hypercortisolism. If left untreated, complete collapse of the femoral head may ensue, necessitating hip replacement in up to 70% of patients. The majority of the described patients with AVN due to endogenous hypercortisolaemia required surgical intervention. A 36-year-old female, investigated for right leg pain, reported rapid weight gain, bruising and secondary amenorrhoea. She had abdominal adiposity with violaceous striae, facial plethora and hirsutism, atrophic skin, ecchymosis and proximal myopathy. Investigations confirmed cortisol excess (cortisol following low-dose 48h dexamethasone suppression test 807nmol/L; 24h urinary free cortisol 1443nmol (normal<290nmol)). Adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) was <5.0pg/mL. CT demonstrated subtle left adrenal gland hypertrophy. Hypercortisolaemia persisted after left adrenalectomy. Histology revealed primary pigmented micronodular adrenal disease. Post-operatively, right leg pain worsened and left leg pain developed, affecting mobility. MRI showed bilateral femoral head AVN. She underwent right adrenalectomy and steroid replacement was commenced. Four months after surgery, leg pain had resolved and mobility was normal. Repeat MRI showed marked improvement of radiological abnormalities in both femoral heads, consistent with spontaneous healing of AVN. We report a case of Cushing’s syndrome due to primary pigmented nodular adrenocortical disease, presenting with symptomatic AVN of both hips. This was managed conservatively from an orthopaedic perspective. Following cure of hypercortisolaemia, the patient experienced excellent recovery and remains symptom free 4 years after adrenalectomy. This is the first report of a favourable outcome over long-term follow-up of a patient with bilateral AVN of the hip, which reversed with treatment of endogenous hypercortisolaemia.
