Unlabelled: In the current study, multivariate analyses were performed to determine factors associated with low back pain (LBP) in patients with osteoporosis. Aging, high bone turnover, obesity, low trunk muscle mass, spinal global sagittal malalignment, and a high number of previous vertebral fractures were potential independent risk factors of pain-related disorders, gait disturbance, or ADL deficit due to LBP.

Purpose: Patients with osteoporosis often experience low back pain (LBP) even in the absence of acute fractures. This study identifies factors that may affect questionnaires about LBP.

Methods: The data of 491 patients with osteoporosis were retrospectively reviewed. Data included patient age, sex, body mass index (BMI), bone mineral density of the lumbar spine, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b level (TRACP5b), trunk muscle mass, sagittal vertical axis (SVA), previous vertebral fractures, secondary osteoporosis, controlling nutritional status score, pain-related disorders and gait disturbance scores from the Japanese Orthopedic Association Back Pain Evaluation questionnaire (JOABPEQ), and Oswestry disability index (ODI) scores for activities of daily living (ADL) deficit. Patients with scores of 100 for each subsection of the JOABPEQ, or an ODI scores < 12 were considered to not have dysfunction (dysfunction (-) group). Multivariate analyses were used to determine variables associated with dysfunction.

Results: Pain-related disorders score of JOABPEQ was associated with aging, high BMI, and high SVA. Aging, high TRACP5b, high BMI, low TM, high SVA, and more previous vertebral fractures were associated with gait disturbance score of JOABPEQ. ODI scores were associated with high BMI, low TM, high SVA, and more previous vertebral fractures.

Conclusions: Aging, high bone turnover, obesity, a low TM, spinal global sagittal malalignment, and a high number of previous VFs were potential independent risk factors of pain-related disorders or gait disturbance according to the JOABPEQ or ODI score in patients with osteoporosis.

Objective: The aim of this study is to develop and validate a prediction model for fall risk factors in hospitalized older adults with osteoporosis.

Methods: A total of 615 older adults with osteoporosis hospitalized at a tertiary (grade 3A) hospital in Nantong City, Jiangsu Province, China, between September 2022 and August 2023 were selected for the study using convenience sampling. Fall risk factors were identified using univariate and logistic regression analyses, and a predictive risk model was constructed and visualized through a nomogram.

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and prolonged high-dose glucocorticoid (GC) treatment are established risk factors for osteoporosis.

Objectives: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of denosumab according to the GC dose considered to increase the risk of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) in patients with RA.

Design: A retrospective analysis of collected data on RA patients with osteoporosis starting denosumab.

Introduction And Aims: Epidemiological observational studies have explored the link between bone joint-related diseases and temporomandibular disorders (TMD), but inconsistent conclusions have emerged due to various limitations. This study aims to investigate the causal relationship between bone joint-related diseases and TMD using Mendelian randomization (MR).

Methods: We utilized a two-sample MR design, applying pooled genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from six subtypes of bone and joint diseases and TMD.
