Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), a serious metabolic disorder, is a worldwide health problem due to the alarming rise in prevalence and elevated morbidity and mortality. Chronic hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and ineffective insulin effect and secretion are hallmarks of T2DM, leading to many serious secondary complications. These include, in particular, cardiovascular disorders, diabetic neuropathy, nephropathy and retinopathy, diabetic foot, osteoporosis, liver damage, susceptibility to infections and some cancers.

Background: Osteoporosis is characterized by the microstructural depletion of bone tissue and decreased bone density, leading to an increased risk of fractures. Nakai, an endemic species of the Korean Peninsula, grows wild in Ulleungdo. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of and its components on osteoporosis.

Managing periprosthetic femoral fractures is challenging, particularly in osteoporotic patients with fragile bones. Revision with a long stem is commonly considered but may fail to provide adequate fixation and stability in fragile bones. A novel approach using sandwiched strut allografts and controlled bone crushing with robust cable fixation can offer mechanical support and provide secondary stability to the loosened femoral stem and can be considered a treatment option for low-demand patients.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease with the main anti-inflammatory drugs for better disease control being steroids or corticosteroids. The use of steroids in asthma patients, in particular in uncontrolled asthma patients, is associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis and fragility fractures. A single oral corticosteroid course increases the risk of osteoporosis and the continual use of inhaled corticosteroids is correlated over time to an increased risk for both bone conditions.

We aimed to analyze potential predictors for the development of metachronous fractures (MFs) after osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs), with particular focus on radiological variables obtained at initial X-rays and computed tomography (CT) examinations, treatment applied (conservative management [CM] versus percutaneous vertebroplasty [PV]), and fractures located at the thoracolumbar junction (T11-L2). We conducted a two-center, observational retrospective study, including patients with single-level OVFs treated with CM or VP. We collected socio-demographic, radiological and treatment-related variables.
