Protocol for the MERINO study: A randomized placebo-controlled trial assessing the efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of methotrexate in people with erosive hand osteoarthritis

open access: yesOsteoarthritis and Cartilage Open
Objective: Previous studies on the efficacy of methotrexate in people with hand osteoarthritis (OA) have shown conflicting results. The MERINO trial aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of methotrexate in people with painful inflammatory erosive ...

Neuronal C/EBPβ Shortens the Lifespan via Inactivating NAMPT

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram illustrating the mechanism of shortened lifespan in Thy 1‐C/EBPβ transgenic mice and intervention strategies. Briefly, C/EBPβ/AEP escalation in the aging brain triggers NAMPT fragmentation and NAD+ depletion. Knockout of AEP from Thy 1‐C/EBPβ Tg/Tg mice ameliorates cognitive impairments and elongates the lifespan.

Eosinophils‐Induced Lumican Secretion by Synovial Fibroblasts Alleviates Cartilage Degradation via the TGF‐β Pathway Mediated by Anxa1 Binding

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Eosinophils play a crucial role in the progression of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA). This study demonstrates that eosinophils, induced by OVA/IL‐5, promote Lumican secretion in the synovium, which binds to Annexin A1 in chondrocytes, inhibiting transforming growth factor β2 and Smad2/3 phosphorylation.

Validation of musculoskeletal segmentation model with uncertainty estimation for bone and muscle assessment in hip-to-knee clinical CT images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Deep learning-based image segmentation has allowed for the fully automated, accurate, and rapid analysis of musculoskeletal (MSK) structures from medical images. However, current approaches were either applied only to 2D cross-sectional images, addressed few structures, or were validated on small datasets, which limit the application in large-scale ...

Musculoskeletal AutoEncoder: A Unified Online Acquisition Method of Intersensory Networks for State Estimation, Control, and Simulation of Musculoskeletal Humanoids [PDF]

open access: yes
While the musculoskeletal humanoid has various biomimetic benefits, the modeling of its complex structure is difficult, and many learning-based systems have been developed so far. There are various methods, such as control methods using acquired relationships between joints and muscles represented by a data table or neural network, and state estimation
