Biologic and Targeted Synthetic Disease‐Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs Do Not Arrest Bone Loss in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Long‐Term Multicenter Observational Study

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoporosis causes fractures that further increase the disease burden of rheumatoid arthritis (RA); however, osteoporosis treatment rates remain low. Although several studies have reported that biologic or targeted synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs (b/tsDMARDs) can prevent or improve osteoporosis in RA, our large‐scale, real ...

The association between graded physical activity in postmenopausal British women, and the prevalence and incidence of hip and wrist fractures.

open access: yes, 2010
BACKGROUND: physical activity is promoted for older women as a means of maintaining health and avoiding falls and fractures. Findings relating physical activity of older women to risk of falls and fracture are contradictory. The association between level

Technique for Lateral Opening Wedge Distal Femoral Osteotomy Using Patient‐Specific Instrumentation for Genu Valgum and Patellar Instability

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Recurrent lateral patellar instability poses a technical challenge to orthopaedic surgeons. Isolated soft‐tissue procedures through medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction or lateral release show unacceptably high failure rates. Lateral opening wedge distal femoral osteotomy addresses underlying bony malalignment and reinforces the soft ...

Allograft Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Patellar Suture Anchors and Stepwise Medial Imbrication

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Patellar instability commonly affects adolescents and young athletes and is associated with injury to the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL). MPFL reconstruction is a well‐established treatment for recurrent instability; however, complications related to graft tensioning, fixation, and incomplete restoration of medial soft‐tissue restraints

Arthroscopic Treatment of Schatzker Type III Tibial Plateau Fractures Using a Combination of Bioabsorbable Interference Screws and Cannulated Screws

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Schatzker type III tibial plateau fractures, characterized by a pure depression of the lateral articular surface, predominantly affect osteoporotic, middle‐aged, and elderly patients. Successful management requires anatomical reduction and stable fixation to minimize complications like post‐traumatic arthritis.

Cost–benefit analysis of screening programme for diabetic retinopathy in Bulgaria

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Late‐diagnosed diabetic retinopathy (DR) is difficult and expensive to treat. Screening programmes can identify the disease early and reduce the costs of its future treatment. This study aims to analyse the cost–benefit of screening programmes for DR.

Effect of oxycodone vs. morphine as first‐line opioid on new persistent opioid use after orthopaedic surgery: A prospective sequential cohort study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Postoperative opioids, intended for short‐term analgesia, contribute to new persistent opioid use in 1%–7% of patients, adversely affecting outcomes. Oxycodone may carry higher risk than morphine, though long‐term data are limited.

Neurovascular coupling in bone regeneration: Mechanisms, advanced biomaterials and challenges

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This figure illustrates various material strategies for neurovascularized bone regeneration, including electroactive scaffolds, ion‐loaded materials, drug delivery systems, surface modifications, cells/cell products, growth factors, and peptides. These approaches aim to synergistically promote the regeneration of neural, vascular, and bone tissues ...
