Prevalence of Low Bone Mineral Density Increases With Age in Sickle Cell Disease
ABSTRACT Introduction Skeletal complications are common in sickle cell disease (SCD). We previously showed that the prevalence of low areal bone mineral density (aBMD) increased with age in a pediatric SCD cohort, even after adjusting for short stature. Data on age‐related aBMD trends in young adults is lacking.

A high Helicobacter pylori prevalence of 65.8% was detected among dyspeptic patients in northern Ghana, linked to poor sanitation, use of public toilets, consumption of street‐vended food, and drinking untreated water. These findings underscore the need for targeted public‐health interventions. ABSTRACT Background Helicobacter pylori (H.

Harnessing energy metabolism for enhanced bone defect repair: Mechanisms and therapeutic strategies
This review addresses the critical challenge of bone defect repair by focusing on the underexplored role of cellular energy metabolism. It synthesizes regulatory mechanisms in bone‐forming cells and sums up innovative strategies—leveraging cell derivatives, active factors, and biomimetic scaffolds—to modulate metabolism for enhanced regeneration.

A Clinical Study of the Distribution and Morphology of Harris Lines
ABSTRACT Harris lines are commonly used in bioarcheology to infer lifestyle in ancient populations; however, their etiology and identification parameters are still under debate. The aim of this study is to observe the distribution of the lesions in a contemporary clinical sample to address their association with etiological factors, age, biological sex,

Biochemical bone biomarkers in plasma cell dyscrasias
Visual abstract depicting that bone turnover markers reflect dynamic alterations in bone remodelling across the spectrum of plasma cell dyscrasias but remain limited by assay variability, biological confounding and incomplete integration with imaging and risk stratification.
