As the associations between pediatric overweight/obesity and bone health remain controversial, we investigated the effects of overweight/obesity as well as lean mass (LM) and fat mass (FM) on bone parameters in adolescents. Bone parameters were evaluated using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) data of 982 adolescents (aged 12-19 years) from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2009-2010). Z-scores for LM, FM, bone mass, bone mineral density (BMD), and bone mineral apparent density (BMAD) using Korean pediatric reference values were used for analysis. Adolescents with overweight/obesity had significantly higher bone mass and density of the total-body-less-head (TBLH), lumbar spine, and femur neck than underweight or normal-weight adolescents (P < 0.001) after adjusting for vitamin D deficiency, calcium intake, and insulin resistance in both sexes. LM was positively associated with bone parameters at all skeletal sites in both sexes (P < 0.001). FM was negatively related to TBLH BMD in boys (P = 0.018) but was positively associated to BMD and BMAD of the lumbar spine and femur neck in girls. In conclusion, overweight/obesity and LM play a positive role in bone health in adolescents. The effect of FM on bone parameters is sex- and site-specific.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate the value of SwiftScan Step-and-Shoot Continuous (SSC) scanning mode in enhancing image quality and to explore appropriate scanning parameters for reducing scan time.
Methods: This study was composed of a phantom study and two clinical tests. The differences in visual image quality scores, coefficient of variance (COV) of the background, image signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), and recovery coefficient (RC) of the sphere were compared between SSC mode and traditional Step-and-Shoot (SS) mode in the phantom study.
In the young, active patient with osteoarthritis, the optimal treatment of B2 glenoid morphology remains a subject of continued debate. Current treatment options have specific advantages and disadvantages. These treatments include hemiarthroplasty with or without glenoid reaming, total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) with or without eccentric reaming, TSA with bone graft or posteriorly augmented glenoid implant, and reverse TSA.

Introduction: The primary aim of this study was to assess the amount and long-term stability of orthodontically created bone in patients with agenesis of maxillary lateral incisors after canine distalization. The secondary aim was to explore the impact of patient age on the process of alveolar bone resorption.
Methods: A group of patients with agenesis of the maxillary permanent lateral incisor was examined at 4 time points: the beginning of orthodontic treatment (T1, n = 80), the end of treatment (T2, n = 80), 2-5 years after treatment (T3, n = 79), and 12-15 years after treatment (T4, n = 32).

Brucellosis has therapeutic challenges due to 3%-15% relapses/therapeutic failures (R/TF) after antibiotic treatment. Therefore, determining the antibiotic concentration in tissues, the physiopathological parameters, and the R/TF after treatment is relevant. After exploring different antibiotic quantities, we found that a combined dose of 100 µg/g of doxycycline (for 45 days) and 7.

Background: Accurate data on the prognosis of bone metastases are necessary for appropriate treatment. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are widely used in the treatment of gene mutation-negative non-small cell lung cancer (GMN-NSCLC).
Aim: To investigate the prognostic factors in patients with bone metastases from GMN-NSCLC following ICI use.
