Associations between smoke exposure and osteoporosis or osteopenia in a US NHANES population of elderly individuals

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundTobacco exposure is considered to be a risk factor for reduced bone mineral density (BMD), which may result in osteopenia. Cotinine, a metabolite of nicotine, is commonly utilized as a marker of tobacco exposure. Nevertheless, there are limited

Local variation in age‐related cortical expansion within and between cross‐sections of distal human long bones

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cortical bone expansion is an age‐related process where, through endosteal resorption and periosteal apposition, cross‐sectional diameter increases while cortical thickness decreases in long bone diaphyses. Local variation has been observed in this process between cross‐sectional locations, but few studies have examined directional variation ...

Functional Impact of Structural Damage in Psoriatic Arthritis: Insights from a Prospective Cohort Study

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective To examine the association between radiographic structural damage and physical function (PF) in psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Methods Data were analyzed from a large longitudinal PsA cohort. PF was measured using the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ, 0–3) and Short Form‐36 PF subscale (SF‐36, 0–100); radiographic joint damage was measured ...

Triple Technique for Neglected Locked Patellar Dislocation With Lateral Release, Synthetic Medial Patellofemoral Ligament, and Peroneus Longus Autograft Medial Quadriceps Tendon‐Femoral Ligament Reconstruction

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Patellar dislocation is a frequent emergency presentation. First‐time dislocations are associated with medial patellofemoral ligament injury in up to 94.7% of cases. Although many reduce spontaneously, reduction under anesthesia may be required.

Caveolin‐1 enriched apoptotic bodies derived from oral hard palate orchestrate bone remodeling to treat heterotopic ossification

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Downregulated CAV1 in HO is restored via apoptotic bodies from PMSCs, which reprogram bone remodeling by delivering CAV1 to target cells, highlighting the therapeutic role of EV subtypes in heterotopic ossification. Abstract Heterotopic ossification (HO) is a pathological process characterized by ectopic bone formation in non‐osseous tissues, with an ...
