Association between Paraspinal Muscle Parameters and single-segment Degenerative Lumbar Spondylolisthesis: A Retrospective, cross-sectional Cohort Study.

Study Design: A retrospective, cross-sectional cohort study.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the association between paraspinal muscle parameters and single-segment degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DLS).

Summary Of Background Data: The relationship between lumbar paraspinal muscles morphology and single-segment DLS remains unclear.

Osthole enhances the bone mass of senile osteoporosis and stimulates the expression of osteoprotegerin by activating β-catenin signaling.

Introduction: Osthole has a potential therapeutic application for anti-osteoporosis. The present study verified whether osthole downregulates osteoclastogenesis via targeting OPG.

Methods: In vivo, 12-month-old male mice were utilized to evaluate the effect of osthole on bone mass.

Association between serum vitamin B concentration and risk of osteoporosis in the middle-aged and older people in China: a cross-sectional study.

Objective: To determine the relationship between serum vitamin B (Vit B) concentration and the status of bone mineral density and identify the relationship between serum Vit B6 and bone metabolism parameters in middle-aged and older people in China.

Design: The present study was a cross-sectional study within the framework of an ongoing prospective population-based cohort study.

Setting And Participants: A total of 1829 residents (men ≥50 years and women ≥45 years) from two subdistricts were recruited from July 2015 to February 2016 in Shanghai, China.
