Objective: This study aimed to compare bone mineral density (BMD) values in patients with lumbar osteoarthritis (OA) with and without osteoporosis (OP). This study evaluated the effect of lumbar osteoarthritis in patients with osteoporosis on Dexa scores using the Lane and Wilke scale.
Methods: A total of 51 individuals with OA, 20 with OP, and 31 without OP were included in the study. Lumbar osteoarthritis was assessed and recorded using the Lane and Wilke scale. BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) at the waist and hip (femoral neck, lumbar vertebrae). Frax assessed the risk of osteoporosis and fracture risk.
Results: The mean age of patients with OP was 68.1±8.2 years, and the mean age of patients without OP was 68.6±9.4 years. There was a significant decrease between the lumbar vertebrae and femoral neck BMD values of the two groups in favor of the osteoporosis group. The t-scores of the OP group were significantly lower (p = 0.045). All variables showed a statistically significant difference between the group with OP and those without OP (p<0.05). The median values of L1-L2, L2-L3, L3-L4, and total L1-L4 were higher in absolute value in the group with OP. In frax hip and frax primary osteoporosis, the median values were higher in the group with OP than in the group without OP (p = 0.023/p = 0.020). All L1-L2, L2-L3, and L3-L4 dexa parameters with and without OP were not significantly different between the groups according to the Lane and Wilke classification (p > 0.05).
Conclusion: There was no statistically significant difference between DEXA parameters in osteoporosis and non-osteoporosis patients with low back osteoarthritis (according to the Lane and Wilke classification).

Purpose: The debate over the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) versus hyaluronic acid (HA) in treating hip osteoarthritis (HOA) continues. This cross-sectional analysis of overlapping systematic reviews aims to evaluate the efficacy of intra-articular PRP compared to HA for HOA treatment. The goal is to guide decision-makers in selecting the most reliable systematic reviews and to provide treatment recommendations based on the best available evidence.

Population-based studies have been inconsistent in terms of the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and the progression of osteoarthritis. This study aimed to evaluate the causal relationship between BMD and the risk of joint replacement in patients with osteoarthritis. We performed a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to determine the association of BMD of the total body, femoral neck, and lumbar spine with the risk of hip and knee replacements.

The prototype of a biomimetic multi-spiked connecting scaffold (MSC-Scaffold) represents an essential innovation in the fixation in subchondral trabecular bone of components for a new generation of entirely cementless hip resurfacing arthroplasty (RA) endoprostheses. In designing such a functional biomaterial scaffold, identifying the microstructural and mechanical properties of the host bone compromised by degenerative disease is crucial for proper post-operative functioning and long-term maintenance of the endoprosthesis components. This study aimed to explore, depending on the occurrence of obesity, changes in the microstructure and mechanical properties of the subchondral trabecular bone in femoral heads of osteoarthritis (OA) patients caused by the MSC-Scaffold embedding.

Intervertebral disc degeneration, which leads to low back pain, is the most prevalent musculoskeletal condition worldwide, significantly impairing quality of life and imposing substantial socioeconomic burdens on affected individuals. A major impediment to the development of any prospective cell-driven recovery of functional properties in degenerate IVDs is the diminishing IVD cell numbers and viability with ageing which cannot sustain such a recovery process. However, if IVD proteoglycan levels, a major functional component, can be replenished through an orthobiological process which does not rely on cellular or nutritional input, then this may be an effective strategy for the re-attainment of IVD mechanical properties.

To evaluate the correlation between a radiographic scale of lumbar degenerative disease and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). A cross-sectional study in which the ODI quality of life questionnaire and the radiographic parameters for the classification of lumbar degenerative disease into different grades were compared to try to establish a relationship between them. The relationship between the radiographic parameters and quality of life indicators does not behave homogeneously, considering the different grades of the lumbar grading scale.
