The sustainable utilization of biomass-derived bioactives addresses the growing demand for natural health products and supports sustainable development goals by reducing reliance on synthetic chemicals in healthcare. biomass, in particular, has emerged as a valuable resource within this context. This study focuses on the hydroethanolic extract of leaves (CSE), which exhibited significant levels of phenolic compounds contributing to robust antioxidant activity.

Cartilage repair remains a critical challenge in orthopaedic medicine due to the tissue's limited self-healing ability, contributing to degenerative joint conditions such as osteoarthritis (OA). In response, regenerative medicine has developed advanced therapeutic strategies, including cell-based therapies, gene editing, and bioengineered scaffolds, to promote cartilage regeneration and restore joint function. This narrative review aims to explore the latest developments in cartilage repair techniques, focusing on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy, gene-based interventions, and biomaterial innovations.

There are scant studies of associations between the pubertal status at neutering and subsequent health outcomes of female dogs. This study examined health data for Labrador and Golden Retriever crossbreed bitches neutered by ovariohysterectomy either before (PrePN, = 155) or after (PostPN, = 151) puberty using a prospective study design. Data were extracted from an electronic database containing detailed health records for all bitches.

The OUTPAC cohort study evaluates the setup and implementation of a nationwide Danish initiative focused on the impact of structured outdoor physical activity (PA) on individuals with rheumatic diseases. This prospective cohort study includes more than 1600 participants, predominantly women (92%), with an average age of 65 years (range: 28-93). The cohort primarily consists of individuals with osteoarthritis (72%), rheumatoid arthritis (18%) and nonspecific lower back pain (13%).

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint condition affecting millions worldwide, characterized by the gradual degeneration of joint cartilage, leading to pain, stiffness, and functional impairment. Although the pathogenesis of OA is not fully understood, the roles of inflammation, metabolic dysregulation, and biomechanical stress are increasingly recognized. Current treatments, including pharmacotherapy, physical therapy, and surgical interventions, aim to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life, yet they face limitations and challenges.
