Loss of Independence After Operative Management of Femoral Neck Fractures

open access: yes, 2019
OBJECTIVES: The FAITH trial evaluated effects of sliding hip screws versus cancellous screws in femoral neck fracture patients. Using FAITH trial data, we quantified changes in living status, use of aids, and investigated factors associated with living ...

Spontaneous fracture of the femoral neck in preexisting avascular necrosis of femoral head in sickle cell disease

open access: yesChinese Journal of Traumatology, 2012
【Abstract】 Avascular necrosis of the femoral head is a known complication of femoral neck fracture but on the contrary, femoral neck fracture in a case of preexisting avas-cular necrosis is a very rare phenomenon.

Association of osteoporotic fractures of femoral neck and femoral neck geometric parameters in native Chinese women

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Although it is generally believed that the femoral neck fracture is related to the femoral neck geometric parameters (FNGPs), the association between the risk of osteoporotic fracture of the femoral neck and FNGPs in native Chinese women is ...

Reverse obliquity femoral neck fractures: two case reports with a literature review

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery
IntroductionVertical femoral neck fractures—those with a Pauwels angle >70°—are an especially demanding subset, notorious for their recalcitrance to fixation and high risk of non-union.

Lifestyle Management in Menopause: A Systematic Review of Women With Premature Ovarian Insufficiency

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), the loss of ovarian function before age 40, increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, low bone mineral density, dementia and psychological distress. Lifestyle interventions reduce chronic disease risk in other populations and, with hormone therapy, may improve health outcomes in POI.

RANK/RANKL/OPG pathway: genetic associations with stress fracture period prevalence in elite athletes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Context: The RANK/RANKL/OPG signalling pathway is important in the regulation of bone turnover, with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes within this pathway associated with bone phenotypic adaptations.

YTHDF3 Enhances Osteogenic Differentiation of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Osteoporosis by Promoting TBX19 Expression

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
In this study, OP‐BMSCs were successfully isolated from OVX osteoporotic rats. Mechanistic investigations revealed that the RNA‐binding protein YTHDF3 significantly upregulates Tbx19 expression by enhancing the stability of Tbx19 mRNA. Elevated Tbx19 levels, in turn, activate key osteogenic molecules, effectively promoting the differentiation of OP ...
