Rotator cuff tear (RCT) is a common tendon injury, but the mechanisms of tendon healing remain incompletely understood. Elucidating the molecular mechanisms of tenogenic differentiation is essential to develop novel therapeutic strategies in clinical treatment of RCT. The long noncoding RNA H19 plays a regulatory role in tenogenic differentiation and tendon healing, but its detailed mechanism of action remains unknown.

To determine the outcome and differences between arthroscopic hip surgery and conservative therapy in patients suffering from femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, we searched articles from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, Web of Science and Clinicaltrials.gov using a Boolean search algorithm. Only randomized controlled trials comparing arthroscopic hip surgery and conservative therapy were included in this meta-analysis of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome management.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to create a diabetes-osteoarthritis (DM-OA) mouse model to confirm that diabetes worsens osteoarthritis and investigate the impact on subchondral bone properties.
  • Mice were divided into three groups (DM-OA, OA, and sham), with assessments of blood glucose, body weight, food intake, and various biochemical markers for bone metabolism.
  • Results showed that the DM-OA group had elevated markers of bone turnover, altered calcium and osteocalcin levels, and significant deterioration in bone structure and strength compared to the other groups.

Objective: To compare the clinical efficacies of humeral head prosthesis and internal fixation in the treatment of comminuted proximal humeral fractures.

Methods: The clinical data were analyzed for the patients with comminuted proximal humeral fractures undergoing surgeries for humeral head replacement or open reduction plus internal fixation in our hospital between January 2002 and January 2009. Constant scores were used to determine the excellent clinical outcome rates in the two groups, and the operating time, blood loss and postoperative motor scores of the shoulder were compared.
