Objective: To observe the effect of osteopractic total flavone on bone histomorphometry of osteoporosis model in rath with ovariectomized female rat models.

Method: The ovariectomy-induced model, bone sliceswith calcium, pigmentation, and Leica Qwin image analysis system were adopted on bone histomorphometry.

Result: As compared with the model group, the effect of small-dose group and middle-dose group of osteopractic total flavone on TBV% of shankbone increased significantly; the effect of small-dose group and middle-dose group of osteopractic total flavone on TRS% of shankbone reduced significantly and TFS%, AFS%, MAR, BFR of shankbone reduced obviously; the effect of middle-dose group of osteopractic total flavone on OSW and mAR reduced obviously, the effect of small-dose group of osteopractic total flavone on them had the tendency of reducing, but there was no statistical significance.

Conclusion: The ovariectomized rats having been fed with osteopractic total flavone for 6 months, TBV% increased significantly while TRS%, AFS%, MAR, BFR, OSW, and mAR reduced obviously. It indicates that the therapeutical effect of osteopractic total flavone on ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis model is significant. And the ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis model is a high transformative type of osteoporosis model in which bone absorption is higher than bone formation.

Bone defect is a serious threat to human health. Osteopractic total flavone (OTF) extracted from Rhizoma Drynariae has the effects of promoting bone formation. Panax notoginseng saponin (PNS) has the function of activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis.

Increased life expectancy has resulted in an increase in osteoporosis incidence worldwide. The coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis is indispensable for bone repair. Although traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) exerts therapeutic effects on osteoporosis, TCM-related scaffolds, which focus on the coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis, have not yet been used for the treatment of osteoporotic bone defects.

The present study aimed to explore the main active components and potential mechanisms of Panax notoginseng saponins(PNS) and osteopractic total flavone(OTF) in the treatment of osteoporosis(OP) through network pharmacology, molecular docking and in vitro cell experiments, which was expected to provide a theoretical basis for clinical applications. The blood-entering components of PNS and OTF were obtained from literature search and online database, and their potential targets were obtained from Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform(TCMSP) and SwissTargetPrediction. The OP targets were obtained by means of searching Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man(OMIM) and GeneCards.

Glucocorticoids inhibit angiogenesis in the femoral head, which fails to nourish the bone tissue and leads to osteonecrosis. Restoring angiogenesis is not only essential for vessel formation, but also crucial for osteogenesis. Poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA) is commonly used in the bone tissue engineering field.

Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death and comorbidity worldwide. High blood pressure and resting heart rate are risk factors (or vital signs) critical to cardiovascular health, patient safety, and medical management. Physiotherapists play a fundamental role in risk factor identification, early diagnosis, and subsequent management of cardiovascular disease.
