Introduction: Lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration (LDD) and osteoporosis (OP) are age-related conditions that induce low back pain and have an impact on quality of life. The relationship between LDD and changes in bone mineral density (BMD) is, however, contentious and ever-changing. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between lumbar vertebral volumetric BMD (vBMD) and LDD in an urban population of young and middle-aged community-dwelling Chinese adults.

Department of Sport and Exercise Sciences, Durham University, Durham, UK.
Objectives: The measurement of visceral fat (VF) is clinically important for the identification of individuals at high risk of visceral obesity-related health conditions. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a widely available and frequently used body composition assessment method, but there have been few validation studies for the measurement of VF. This validation study investigated agreement between BIA and CT for the assessment of VF in adults.

Article Synopsis
- A 75-year-old woman developed a rare Clostridioides difficile infection in her prosthetic hip joint, following a history of right hip pain and movement restriction.
- The infection was confirmed through synovial fluid and tissue cultures during her hospitalization, after she had undergone two hip surgeries in the past.
- Successful treatment included a two-stage revision surgery and antibiotics, leading to no recurrence of infection after one year.
