Background: Bone fragility is a recognized complication of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Thus, lower trabecular bone score (TBS) measurements in T1D patients can be predicted. However, the results of current studies on TBS in patients with T1D are inconsistent. In this context, the present study aimed to test the hypothesis that T1D is associated with lower TBS through a meta-analysis.
Methods: An electronic search of the literature was conducted using PubMed, Embase and Web of science databases to identify studies related to TBS and T1D, supplemented by an additional manual check of the reference list of relevant original and review articles. All data was analyzed using a random effects model. Results were compared using standardized mean differences (SMD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). P ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Review Manager 5.4 software and Stata 17.0 software were used for statistical analysis.
Results: Seven cross-sectional studies involving 848 participants were included. TBS was lower in T1D patients than in healthy controls on random effects analysis, with no heterogeneity (SMD = - 0.39, 95% CI [- 0.53, - 0.24], P < 0.001; I = 0%). In addition, by subgroup analysis, T1D patients were strongly associated with reduced TBS in different regions and age groups, and the results were independent of covariate adjustment.
Conclusion: This study showed that TBS was lower in patients with T1D than in healthy individuals with normal blood glucose levels, suggesting that TBS may be a useful measure to assess fracture risk in T1D.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is associated with sclerosis, a thickening of the subchondral bone plate, yet little is known about bone adaptations around full-thickness cartilage defects in severe knee OA, particularly beneath bone-on-bone wear grooves. This high-resolution micro-computed tomography (microCT) study aimed to quantify subchondral bone microstructure relative to cartilage defect location, distance from the joint space, and groove depth. Ten tibial plateaus with full-thickness cartilage defects were microCT-scanned to determine defect location and size.

Among hornbill birds, the critically endangered helmeted hornbill (Rhinoplax vigil) is notable for its casque (a bulbous beak protrusion) being filled with trabeculae and fronted by a very thick keratin layer. Casque function is debated but appears central to aerial jousting, where birds (typically males) collide casques at high speeds in a mid-flight display that is audible for more than 100 m. We characterized the structural relationship between the skull and casque anatomy using X-ray microtomography and quantitative trabecular network analysis to examine how the casque sustains extreme impact.

This study tested whether combined ceftriaxone and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) would defend the spinal cord against acute spinal infection (ASI) in rodent. Adult-Male-SD rats were grouped into groups 1 (SC)/2 (ASI)/3 (ASI + ceftriaxone from days 2 to 28 after ASI induction)/4 (ASI + allogenic ADMSCs from day 2 for a total of 3 doses/3 consecutive intervals by intravenous injection)/5 (ASI + combined ceftriaxone and ADMSC) and spinal cord tissues were harvested by day 28. Circulatory levels of TNF-α/IL-6 at days 7 and 28, and these two parameters in spinal fluid at day 28 were lowest in group 1, highest in group 2, significantly lower in group 5 than in groups 3/4, and significantly lower in group 3 than in group 4 (all p < 0.

Subject-specific finite element (FE) modeling of the mandible bone has recently gained attention for its higher accuracy. A critical modeling factor is including personalized material properties from medical images especially when bone quality has to be respected. However, there is no consensus on the material model for the mandible that realistically estimates the Young's modulus of the bone.

Although the pathogenesis and mechanism of congenital skeletal dysplasia are better understood, progress in drug development and intervention research remains limited. Here we report that melatonin treatment elicits a mitigating effect on skeletal abnormalities caused by deficiency. In addition to our previous finding of endoplasmic reticulum stress upon deficiency, we found calcium (Ca) overload jointly contributed to -associated chondrodysplasias.
