Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to analyze how the bone mass and volume in the low-density area under the tibial plateau affects the force line of the lower limb, which is important for managing knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and preventing internal displacement during knee varus.
  • Researchers used imaging data to create models of the knee joint and varying low-density regions to simulate different bone mass conditions and study their effects on stress and displacement under physical loads.
  • The findings indicated that the KOA model accurately reflects normal limb anatomy, showing specific stress and displacement patterns that can inform clinical approaches to treating lower limb issues in KOA patients.

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a elaborate hip disease characterized by collapse of femoral head and osteoarthritis. RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) plays a crucial role in a lot of biological processes within eukaryotic cells. However, the role of m6A in the regulation of ONFH remains unclear.

Background: Numerous surgical interventions are available for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). In recent years, knee-preserving surgery, specifically osteotomy, has gained significant attention from patients, particularly those who are young and physically active, as it not only effectively alleviates pain but also preserves bone integrity, thereby allowing for potential future joint replacement. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the global application trends of osteotomy for KOA and identify the current research hotspots.

Background: Though hallux valgus is a common foot deformity, the integrated information on its global prevalence and incidence is relatively lacking. The aim of this research was to assess the global prevalence and incidence of hallux valgus, thus providing reliable data reference for clinical practice.

Methods: A systematic review of global hallux valgus research publications concerning its prevalence and incidence was performed based on six electronic databases ((PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Online Journals and CQVIP)) from their inception to November 16, 2022.

The American Musculoskeletal Society updated the diagnostic criteria for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in 2011 and 2018. However, the overall incidence of PJI since the introduction of these new standards has not been assessed. In order to fill this knowledge gap, a single-group meta-analysis was conducted using articles obtained from several databases, focusing on the incidence of PJI after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA).

Background: Since entering the 21 century, there has been an increasing interest in minimally invasive surgery for spinal diseases, which has led to the continued development of minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS), with major breakthroughs in technology and technical skills. However, in recent years, there is little relevant research using bibliometrics to analyze the field of MISS research. The purpose of this study is to sort out the publication situation and topic trends of articles in the field of MISS research from the perspective of bibliometrics.

Dysregulation of osteoclast-osteoblast balance, resulting in abnormal bone remodeling, is responsible for postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) or other secondary forms of osteoporosis. We demonstrated that dictamnine (DIC), a novel RANKL-targeted furoquinoline alkaloid, inhibits osteoclastogenesis by facilitating the activities of reactive oxygen species (ROS), NF-B, and NFATc1 in vitro and prevents the development of OVX-induced osteoporosis mouse models in vivo. .

Osteoporosis is a bone disease that is caused by disorder of the skeletal microenvironment, and it characterized by a high disability rate and the occurrence of low energy fractures. Studies on osteoporosis and related treatment options have always been hot spots in the field of bone biology. In the past, the understanding of osteoporosis has been rather limited; research has only shown that osteoporosis involves the imbalance of bone resorption and bone formation, and recent studies have not provided cutting-edge theories of the basic understanding of osteoporosis.
