Background: Patients with diabetes mellitus are prone to develop osteoporosis, osteomyelitis, or rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Furthermore, the presence of these complications in those with diabetes may lead to higher mortality. The aim of our study was to assess characteristics and mortality of osteoporosis, osteomyelitis, or rheumatoid arthritis in individuals with diabetes.
Methods: We analyzed osteoporosis, osteomyelitis, and RA deaths associated with diabetes from 1999-2017 using the CDC WONDER system (CDC WONDER; https://wonder.cdc.gov). We used codes to categorize the underlying and contributing causes of death. Crude mortality rates (CMR) and age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMR) per 1,000,000 person-years were calculated.
Results: The AAMR for osteoporosis in the population with diabetes was significantly higher in females (AAMR: 4.17, 95% CI: 4.10-4.24) than in males (AAMR: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.07-1.16). Deaths due to osteoporosis increased gradually from 1999, peaked in 2003 (AAMR: 3.78, 95% CI: 3.55-4.00), and reached a nadir in 2016 (AAMR: 2.32, 95% CI: 2.15-2.48). The AAMR for RA associated with diabetes was slightly higher in females (AAMR: 4.04, 95% CI: 3.98-4.11) than in males (AAMR: 2.45, 95% CI: 2.39-2.51). The mortality rate due to RA increased slightly from 1999 (AAMR: 3.18, 95% CI: 2.97-3.39) to 2017 (AAMR: 3.20, 95% CI: 3.02-3.38). The AAMR for osteomyelitis associated with diabetes was higher in males (AAMR: 4.36, 95% CI: 4.28-4.44) than in females (AAMR: 2.31, 95% CI: 2.26-2.36). From 1999 to 2017, the AAMR from osteomyelitis in this population was 2.63 (95% CI: 2.44-2.82) per 1,000,000 person-years in 1999 and 4.25 (95% CI: 4.05-4.46) per 1,000,000 person-years in 2017.
Conclusions: We found an increase in the age-adjusted mortality rates of RA and osteomyelitis and a decrease of osteoporosis associated with diabetes from 1999 to 2017. We suggest that increased attention should therefore be given to these diseases in the population with diabetes, especially in efforts to develop preventative and treatment strategies.

Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathies (HSANs) encompass a diverse group of inherited neuropathies characterized by notable sensory and autonomic involvement that affects musculoskeletal structures and systemic function. There are 8 recognized types of HSAN. The orthopaedic manifestations of HSAN are complex and diverse, including spinal deformity, Charcot arthropathy, osteomyelitis, fractures, osteonecrosis, osteoporosis, and skeletal deformities.

Article Synopsis
- - Multiple myeloma (MM) is a rare cancer often treated with bisphosphonates, which help reduce bone loss and prevent complications, and this study focused on identifying imaging patterns related to this treatment in MM patients.
- - The study reviewed six research articles involving 669 MM patients, of which 447 were treated with bisphosphonates like pamidronate and zoledronate; many patients developed medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), primarily affecting the mandible with specific radiographic features.
- - The findings highlight distinct radiographic patterns of bone lesions in MM patients undergoing bisphosphonate therapy, which are important for early diagnosis and improving treatment outcomes.

Complex bone diseases such as osteomyelitis, osteosarcoma, and osteoporosis often cause critical-size bone defects that the body cannot self-repair and require an advanced bone graft material to repair. We have fabricated 3D-printed tricalcium phosphate bone scaffolds functionalized with garlic extract (GE). GE was encapsulated in a nanoemulsion (GE-NE) to enhance bioavailability and stability.

Article Synopsis
- - Homeostasis in the oral cavity refers to the balance between the host and the oral microbiome, which is crucial for maintaining healthy physiological functions and bone remodeling.
- - The review examines how disruptions in oral microbial homeostasis may lead to systemic bone diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis, and emphasizes the link between periodontal disease and these conditions.
- - It also explores potential diagnostic methods and innovative treatments such as probiotics, mesenchymal stem cells, and oral microbiome transplantation to restore balance and improve bone health.
