Milky hemolymph syndrome (MHS) caused by a bacilliform virus (BV) was found in tanner crab Chionoecetes bairdi in the shelf zone of Kamchatka. The prevalence of the disease varied from 0.18 to 1.02%. A total lesion of the cells of the interstitial connective tissue and the connective tissue component of all internal organs was noted, which was expressed in the hypertrophy of their nuclei. In addition, hypertrophy of fixed phagocytes and circulating hemocytes was noted. Ultrastructural analysis of the tissues confirmed that in the interstitial connective tissue of pathologically altered organs, virus particles of two morphotypes were found - rod-shaped and globular. In the cytoplasm of infected cells, bands of microtubules formed near where viral particles were concentrated. In the area of contacts at the poles of microtubules, successive stages of the transformation of rod-shaped viruses into globular viruses was observed. The bacilliform virus that infects C. bairdi is structurally very similar to CoBV found in Chionoecetes opilio. Structural features are characteristic of representatives of fam. Nimaviridae. The molecular data obtained suggest that the virus causing MHS in C. bairdi is systematically very close, if not identical, to CoBV.

Background: The adjunctive use of connective tissue grafts (CTGs) in the periodontal regeneration of intrabony defects has been proposed to prevent or limit postoperative gingival recession. However, there is limited evidence regarding the long-term clinical performance of this approach.

Methods: This article presents the five-year follow-up outcomes of a combination therapy using CTG, bone substitutes, and biologics for the treatment of deep intrabony defects associated with gingival recession.

Purpose Of Review: The purpose of this review is to summarize the current understanding of cell-autonomous innate immune pathways that contribute to bone homeostasis and disease.

Recent Findings: Germ-line encoded pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are the first line of defense against danger and infections. In the bone microenvironment, PRRs and downstream signaling pathways, that mount immune defense, interface intimately with the core cellular processes in bone cells to alter bone formation and resorption.

Objective: This study aims to analyze adverse drug events (ADE) related to romosozumab from the second quarter of 2019 to the third quarter of 2023 from FAERS database.

Methods: The ADE data related to romosozumab from 2019 Q2 to 2023 Q3 were collected. After data normalization, four signal strength quantification algorithms were used: ROR (Reporting Odds Ratios), PRR (Proportional Reporting Ratios), BCPNN (Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network), and EBGM (Empirical Bayesian Geometric Mean).

Objectives: The progressive decline in interstitial lung disease associated with non-scleroderma connective tissue disease (ILD-NSCTD) is linked to poor prognosis and frequently results in respiratory failure. Lung transplantation (LTx) offers a viable treatment option, yet its outcomes in ILD-NSCTD remain contentious, particularly across different subtypes.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) (n=11,610) and ILD-NSCTD (n=610) listed in the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) database who underwent lung transplantation between May 5, 2005, and December 31, 2022.

Bone Marrow Adipocytes as Novel Regulators of Metabolic Homeostasis: Clinical Consequences of Bone Marrow Adiposity.

Maine Medical Center Research Institute, Maine Medical Center, 81 Research Drive, Scarborough, ME, 04074, USA.

Purpose Of Review: Bone marrow adipose tissue is a distinctive fat depot located within the skeleton, with the potential to influence both local and systemic metabolic processes. Although significant strides have been made in understanding bone marrow adipose tissue over the past decade, many questions remain regarding their precise lineage and functional roles.

Recent Findings: Recent studies have highlighted bone marrow adipose tissue's involvement in continuous cross-talk with other organs and systems, exerting both endocrine and paracrine functions that play a crucial role in metabolic homeostasis, skeletal remodeling, hematopoiesis, and the progression of bone metastases.
