Role of Prednisone and 25‐Hydroxyvitamin D on Bone Mineral Density and Osteoporosis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We evaluated the role of 25‐hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D), prednisone, and other risk factors for bone mineral density (BMD) loss and osteoporosis in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods We calculated the association between 25(OH)D levels and other potential risk factors and BMD measures (spine T scores) and osteoporosis (defined as a T ...

Triangular Index Ratio as An Alternative Method to the Alpha Angle for Defining the Presence of Cam Morphology: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Cam morphology, a significant risk factor for hip osteoarthritis, is commonly quantified by the alpha angle (AA). This study aims to explore the potential of the triangular index ratio (TIR) to quantify cam morphology on anteroposterior radiographs by assessing the association between TIR‐defined cam morphology and the development of ...

Obesity subtypes and longitudinal trajectories of function over 7‐years of follow‐up: data from the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Background Obesity, defined by BMI ≥30kg/m2, is a risk factor for functional limitations in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, function varies among such individuals. Our objective was to evaluate the implications of obesity subtypes on longitudinal patterns of physical functioning in people with or at risk for knee OA.

Predictive Model Development and Validation for Low Appendicular Skeletal Muscle Mass in Chinese Older Adults

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
This predictive model divides the low ASMI into three risk categories. Older adults in the low‐risk category, for whom SMM measurement is probably unnecessary. ABSTRACT Objectives Low skeletal muscle mass is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. Due to constraints related to cost and equipment availability, direct measurement of skeletal muscle ...

Interpretation of A Focus Shift From Sarcopenia to Muscle Health in the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2025 Consensus Update

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
The AWGS 2025 consensus shifts focus from diagnosing sarcopenia to promoting muscle health across the lifespan. It simplifies diagnosis to low muscle mass plus low strength, expands screening to middle‐aged adults, and integrates muscle health into the WHO ICOPE framework for early intervention and healthy aging.

Artificial Intelligence for Bone: Theory, Methods, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) offer the potential to improve bone research. The current review explores the contributions of AI to pathological study, biomarker discovery, drug design, and clinical diagnosis and prognosis of bone diseases. We envision that AI‐driven methodologies will enable identifying novel targets for drugs discovery. The
