Increased fractional anisotropy (FA) in the cingulate hippocampal gyrus (OR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P = 0.003), orientation diffusion(OD) in the fornix and Stria terminalis (OR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P = 0.004) and isotropic volume fraction (ISOVF) (OR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.99-1.00, P = 0.039) in the fornix, as well as an increase in OD in the posterior thalamic radiation (R) (OR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P = 0.047) reduce OA risk as protective factors. Increased subparietal lobule area (OR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P = 0.045) and middle temporal gyrus volume (OR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.97-1.00, P = 0.029) also demonstrated a protective effect against OA. Conversely, OA risk was increased by increases in the medial thalamic tract's OD (OR: 1.01, 95% CI: 1.00-1.02, P = 0.034), the cerebral peduncle's intracellular volume fraction (ICVF) (OR: 1.01, 95% CI: 1.00-1.01, P = 0.010), the anterior limb of the internal capsule's ISOVF (OR: 1.01, 95% CI: 1.00-1.01, P = 0.033), and the posterior thalamic radiation(L) 's MO (OR: 1.02, 95% CI: 1.00-1.03, P = 0.024). Interestingly, lateral orbitofrontal volume decreased (R: OR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P = 0.013; L: OR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P = 0.038), while medial orbitofrontal increased risk (OR: 1.02, 95% CI: 1.00-1.04, P = 0.024).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Our findings provide genetic evidence for the prevention of OA based on the bone-brain axis and suggest a clinical strategy for integrated pain-psychomotor intervention through neural nociceptive modulation, limbic circuit stabilization, and motor pathway enhancement.</p>","PeriodicalId":16357,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare","volume":"18 ","pages":"3605-3617"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12205704/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144528330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
