Biomechanical Computed Tomography analysis (BCT) for clinical assessment of osteoporosis. [PDF]

, 2020
The surgeon general of the USA defines osteoporosis as "a skeletal disorder characterized by compromised bone strength, predisposing to an increased risk of fracture." Measuring bone strength, Biomechanical Computed Tomography analysis (BCT), namely ...

Stable Imitation of Multigait and Bipedal Motions for Quadrupedal Robots Over Uneven Terrains

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
How are quadrupedal robots empowered to execute complex navigation tasks, including multigait and bipedal motions? Challenges in stability and real‐world adaptation persist, especially with uneven terrains and disturbances. This article presents an imitation learning framework that enhances adaptability and robustness by incorporating long short‐term ...

A Resistive Soft Robotic Exosuit for Dynamic Body Loading in Hypogravity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The resistive hypogravity exosuit is a lightweight wearable robotic exosuit that uses pneumatic artificial muscles to restore Earth‐like metabolic and muscular demands during locomotion in low gravity. Tested on healthy subjects in Earth and simulated Moon gravity, the suit restores energy expenditure and muscle activation without altering gait ...

Treatment with Minicircle DNA Expressing a FGF23 Fragment in a Clinically relevant Mouse Model of X‐Linked Hypophosphatemic Rickets

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The pathogenic role of PHEX isn't fully determined, and there is no radical cure for X‐linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLHR). This study makes the first attempt to perform gene therapy using a minicircle DNA (MC‐DNA) vector expressing a fragment of FGF23 (amino acids 180‐251) in Phex‐T1349C mice and suggests MC‐DNA as a promisingly safe and effective ...

Risk prediction of second hip fracture by bone and muscle density of the hip varies with time after first hip fracture: A prospective cohort study

Bone Reports
Purpose: Predictors of ‘imminent’ risk of second hip fracture are unknown. The aims of the study were to explore strength of hip areal bone mineral density (aBMD), and muscle area and density for predicting second hip fracture at different time intervals.

A GC polymorphism associated with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level is a risk factor for hip fracture in Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis: 10-year follow-up of the Institute of Rheumatology, Rheumatoid Arthritis cohort study [PDF]

, 2014
INTRODUCTION: Vitamin D deficiency has been reported to be common in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have a higher prevalence of osteoporosis and hip fracture than healthy individuals.

Nasal Mucosa‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles as a Systemic Antiaging Intervention

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that nasal mucosa‐derived extracellular vesicles (nmEVs) exert systemic anti‐ageing effects in mice by restoring circadian rhythm, suppressing cellular senescence, and improving cognitive function. In aged human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, nmEVs reverse senescence‐associated phenotypes and reactivate core clock gene expression.
