Safety and efficacy of autologous adipose-derived stem cells for knee osteoarthritis in the elderly population: A systematic review.

Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive joint disease, and over 240 million people suffer from symptomatic OA, primarily in the knee, and mainly affects the elderly population over 65. A combination of different risk factors leads to biological changes in the microenvironments of the joints, causing cartilage overload and chondrocyte aging. Adipose-derived MSCs (ADSCs) are demonstrated to improve joint environments with an effective therapy for Knee OA.

Histopathological evaluation of spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee: time to reconsider history and nomenclature-a scoping review.

Spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee (SONK) was first described by Ahlbäck et al. in 1968. However, subsequent studies revealed that subchondral fractures, rather than necrosis, are the most common histopathological finding in bone samples from patients diagnosed with SONK.

Total hip arthroplasty in patients under 35 years: a systematic review of the last 2 decades studies.

Background: Patients with total hip arthroplasty (THA) under the age of 35 represent a small and heterogeneous group of 1% of all THA performed. This systematic review aims to analyse the diagnosis, implant type, complications, and long-term results in these patients.

Methods: A search was performed on PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Library up to 31 July 2023.

Planning Accuracy and Stem Offset Assessment in Digital Two-Dimensional Versus Three-Dimensional Planning in Cementless Hip Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) planning is crucial for restoring hip function and minimizing complications. The present systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess and compare the accuracy of 2D versus 3D preoperative planning in THA. : The inclusion criteria were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies (ROSs) published in English comparing the accuracy of 2D and 3D preoperative planning for total hip arthroplasty.

A Systematic Review on the Neuropsychological Assessment of Patients with LBP: The Impact of Chronic Pain on Quality of Life.

Low back pain (LBP) is most common pain syndrome in Europe, affecting approximately 50% of European citizens. LBP is a complex condition that negatively affects many aspects of an individual's life such as work productivity, mobility, and mental health. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of pain associated with chronic LBP on patients' quality of life.
