This study tested whether combined ceftriaxone and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) would defend the spinal cord against acute spinal infection (ASI) in rodent. Adult-Male-SD rats were grouped into groups 1 (SC)/2 (ASI)/3 (ASI + ceftriaxone from days 2 to 28 after ASI induction)/4 (ASI + allogenic ADMSCs from day 2 for a total of 3 doses/3 consecutive intervals by intravenous injection)/5 (ASI + combined ceftriaxone and ADMSC) and spinal cord tissues were harvested by day 28. Circulatory levels of TNF-α/IL-6 at days 7 and 28, and these two parameters in spinal fluid at day 28 were lowest in group 1, highest in group 2, significantly lower in group 5 than in groups 3/4, and significantly lower in group 3 than in group 4 (all p < 0.

However, there is no consensus on the material model for the mandible that realistically estimates the Young's modulus of the bone.

Patients with radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA) experience a higher prevalence of fragility fractures, though the pathophysiology of osteoporosis associated with this disease remains poorly understood. The objective of this study was to evaluate the histomorphometric data in r-axSpA patients. Male r-axSpA patients up to 55 years old were enrolled in this cross-sectional study.
