In response to the call for research prompted by declaration of the Bone and Joint Decade, many aspects of bone health have been investigated. Areas of bone health of particular relevance to athletics are the cause and prevention of fractures and osteoporosis. Athletes are at risk for significant injury if bone mineral density values are less than optimal. Therefore, a comprehensive approach involving collaboration among healthcare providers is essential in addressing the issue of bone health.

Influences of patient positioning and general anesthesia on condylar position and surgical accuracy in orthognathic surgery.
Clin Oral Investig
January 2025
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Radboud University Medical Center, Geert Grooteplein 10, Nijmegen, 6525, GA, the Netherlands.
Objectives: To assess the effect of patient positioning and general anesthesia on the condylar position in orthognathic surgery.
Materials And Methods: This prospective study included patients undergoing orthognathic surgery between 2019 and 2020. Four weeks prior to surgery (T0) cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans and intra-oral scans (IOS) were acquired in an upright position.
Comparison of the natural course of clinical and radiologic features in 13 patients with TRPV4-related skeletal dysplasias.

Department of Pediatric Genetics, Istanbul University-Cerrahpaşa, Cerrahpasa Medical Faculty, 34098, Cerrahpasa, Istanbul, Turkey.
Background: Heterozygous TRPV4 mutations cause a group of skeletal dysplasias characterized by short stature, short trunk, and skeletal deformities.
Objective: The aim of this study is to compare the natural history of clinical and radiologic features of patients with different TRPV4-related skeletal dysplasias.
Materials And Methods: Thirteen patients with a mutation in TRPV4 were included in the study, and 11 were followed for a median of 6.
Associations between bone material strength index and FRAX scores.
J Bone Miner Metab
January 2025
Deakin University, IMPACT- Institute for Mental and Physical Health and Clinical Translation, School of Medicine, Geelong, Australia.
Introduction: Impact microindentation (IMI) measures bone material strength index (BMSi) in vivo. However, its ability to predict fractures is still uncertain. This study aimed to determine the association between BMSi and 10 year fracture probability, as calculated by the FRAX algorithm.

University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, CHAPEL HILL, North Carolina, United States.
A wealth of research focused on African American populations has connected rs2814778-CC ("Duffy-null") to decreased neutrophil (neutropenia) and leukocyte counts (leukopenia). While it has been proposed that this variant is benign, prior studies have shown that the misinterpretation of Duffy-null associated neutropenia and leukopenia can lead to unnecessary bone marrow biopsies, inequities in cytotoxic and chemotherapeutic treatment courses, under-enrollment in clinical trials, and other disparities. To investigate the phenotypic correlates of Duffy-null status, we conducted a phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) across more than 1,400 clinical conditions in All of Us, the Vanderbilt University Medical Center's Biobank, and the Million Veteran Program.

Orthop Surg
January 2025
Orthopedics Department, Gongli Hospital of Shanghai Pudong New Area, Shanghai, China.
Objective: Soft tissue defects and postoperative wound healing complications related to calcaneus fractures may result in significant morbidity. The aim of this study was to investigate whether percutaneous minimally invasive screw internal fixation (PMISIF) can change this situation in the treatment of calcaneal fractures, and aimed to explore the mechanical effects of different internal fixation methods on Sanders type III calcaneal fractures through finite element analysis.
Methods: This retrospective analysis focused on 83 patients with Sanders II and III calcaneal fractures from March 2017 to March 2022.
