Risk of osteoporosis in testicular germ cell tumour survivors: A systematic review of the literature
Abstract Context Testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) survivors are potentially at risk of developing osteoporosis, because of increased risk for disturbed bone remodelling associated with hypogonadism and anti‐cancer treatment. A number of studies show bone loss and increased fracture risk in TGCT survivors, but data are scarce.

Abstract Loss‐of‐function variants in the ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase family member 1 (ENPP1) cause ENPP1 Deficiency, a rare disorder characterized by pathological calcification, neointimal proliferation, and impaired bone mineralization. The consequence of ENPP1 Deficiency is a broad range of age dependent symptoms and morbidities

ABSTRACT Musculoskeletal aging in the most resource‐limited countries has not been quantified, and longitudinal data are urgently needed to inform policy. The aim of this prospective study was to describe musculoskeletal aging in Gambian adults. A total of 488 participants were recruited stratified by sex and 5‐year age band (aged 40 years and older ...

ABSTRACT Age‐related bone loss is a failure of balanced bone turnover and diminished skeletal mechanoadaptation. Estrogen receptors, ERα and ERβ, play critical roles in osteoprotective regulation activated by estrogen and mechanical signals. Previous studies mainly focused on ERα and showed that osteocyte‐ERα (Ot‐ERα) regulated trabecular, but not ...

ABSTRACT Hyperthyroidism causes secondary osteoporosis through favoring bone resorption over bone formation, leading to bone loss with elevated bone fragility. Osteocytes that reside within lacunae inside the mineralized bone matrix orchestrate the process of bone remodeling and can themselves actively resorb bone upon certain stimuli.

Lipopolysaccharide‐Induced Bone Loss in Rodent Models: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT Osteoporosis has traditionally been characterized by underlying endocrine mechanisms, though evidence indicates a role of inflammation in its pathophysiology. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a component of gram‐negative bacteria that reside in the intestines, can be released into circulation and stimulate the immune system, upregulating bone ...

Age‐ and sex‐specific normative values of bone mineral density in the adult glenoid
Abstract The objective of this study was to determine the normative bone mineral density (BMD) of cortical and trabecular bone regions in the adult glenoid and its dependence on the subject's age and sex. We analyzed computed tomography (CT) scans of 441 shoulders (310 males, 18–69 years) without any signs of glenohumeral joint pathology.

Background The notion that all acute hip fractures are a surgical entity requiring either surgical fracture fixation or hip replacement represents a historic dogma, particularly within the orthopaedic community of the United States.

Femoral Neck Angle Impacts Hip Disorder and Surgical Intervention: A Patient-Specific 3D Printed Analysis [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to investigate the femoral neck angulation for prediction of the complication associated with dynamic hip screw (DHS) surgery and hip deformity. Three sample patients' MRI images were selected to calculate the femoral neck angles.
