One of the most important features of IVDD is the loss of extracellular matrix (ECM) with its structural components.

The patients were divided into two groups - aged under or over 50 years. A standardized clinical examination with assessment of radicular signs and deficits was performed. Subjective disability and pain were assessed using the visual analogue scale and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI).

When the fracture encompasses the articular facet of the bone, maintaining the reduction is challenging due to the fragment's size and high instability. While specific implants have been developed to fix this fragment, their effectives have been limited. This study evaluates the mechanical performance of a novel hook plate conceived to stabilize the small fragment of the semilunar facet of the radius in non-osteoporotic bones. A simulated lunate facet fracture was created in an adult radius in a virtual model, and a modification of a hook plate was developed using computer-aided design (CAD). Two groups were established for the finite element method (FEM) simulation: a control group (standard plate Medartis™ (Switzerland, A-5500.23) and an angled plate with hooks set at 60º, 90º and 120º. In the FEM simulation, an axial load of 100 N was applied in the Z-axis direction on the fragment. Fracture displacement along the Z axis was more pronounced in the control model (0.32 mm) and less in the angled models, ranging from 0.22 to 0.28 mm. Notably, the plate with a 90° angle showed a more effective reduction in fragment displacement. The distribution of stresses in the system showed the highest levels of stress in the control group (59.31 MPa), followed by the subgroup with a 60° angle (55.78 MPa).In the side view, the control model showed a higher concentration of stresses (59.74 MPa), while the model with a 90° angle showed a lower value of stresses (18.87 MPa). Critical stress regions were identified in the bolts of the control and 120° models (59.47 MPa and 57.64 MPa, respectively). However, in the 90° model, no critical regions were observed in the bolts, which showed lower stress values, reaching 26.33 MPa. In the bone, the greatest concentration of stress occurred in the region where the plate was anchored. Our results showed that the 90° hook plate had a superior mechanical performance in fixing simulate lunate facet fractures at the distal radius. This angle led to minor displacements and minimized stress concentrations in the hardware, thus contributing to enhance the stability of this specific fracture.</p>","PeriodicalId":9189,"journal":{"name":"BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11539762/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142589722","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}

This investigation translated the APS into German and estimated its internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and construct validity.

In in vivo experiments, we induced osteoporosis in 72 female mice by ovariectomy and injected different groups of cells via the tail vein. Femoral tissue samples were collected for a fixed time, and the osteogenic and homing abilities of the cells were verified by MicroCT and tissue section staining.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>We successfully demonstrated that high expression of SDF1 promoted cell proliferation and migration in vitro, without affecting their cell differentiation ability. In an ovariectomized mouse model, SDF1-BMSCs were more likely to be home to the femur than the BMSCs, had a better pro-osteogenic ability, and had higher expression of Wnt-1. Blocking the SDF1/CXCR4 axis reduced the homing of exogenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to the femur and their osteogenic capacity.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>SDF1-BMSCs can further promote bone formation by increasing the number of cells homing to the femur in osteoporotic mice. Our study shows that stem cells can promote their proliferation and home to the femur via the SDF1/CXCR4 axis and further help bone formation via Wnt-1 signaling.</p>","PeriodicalId":9189,"journal":{"name":"BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11536944/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142575364","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}

Bone mineral density (BMD), as the best indicator of bone mineral content per unit area of bone, is one of the key diagnostic factors for OP. Platelets (PLT), serving as important immune cells and components of the coagulation system, have been demonstrated to be associated with bone formation, resorption, and remodeling processes. However, no research has established the relationship between BMD and platelet count (PC) in the American population thus far. This study aims to investigate the correlation between BMD and PC among the American population, and to appraise the effects of additional risk factors on this association.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This investigation examined the relationship between BMD and PC by analyzing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) between 2011 and 2018. A weighted multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to assess this correlation. Additionally, subgroup and smooth curve analyses were conducted to delve deeper into the BMD-PC relationship and to identify other potential determinants of PC.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>This study reveals a significant negative correlation between BMD and PC in the American adult population (β=-15.05, 95% CI: -22.07 to -8.03, p < 0.0001). Subgroup analysis highlights notable differences in this correlation between genders and various racial groups. Smooth curve fitting and generalized additive models were applied to further explore the relationship between BMD and PC, considering the influence of multiple factors.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The present study investigated the correlation between BMD and PC in adults, with a particular focus on the potential risk factors for thrombocytopenia. This negative correlation was found to be markedly pronounced in males, an association not observed in females. Additionally, a potential inverse relationship between BMD and hemoglobin (HGB) levels was identified. Consequently, for individuals with elevated bone mass or osteoporosis (OP), we advocate for routine complete blood count monitoring to identify hematological irregularities. Considering the significant variations by sex, age, and race, special vigilance is advised for changes in PC among non-Hispanic white males under the age of 55.</p>","PeriodicalId":9189,"journal":{"name":"BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11529332/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142563786","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}
