Chronic quadriceps tendon ruptures are relatively uncommon albeit debilitating injuries to the knee extensor mechanism. Previous literature demonstrates worse reported outcomes with delayed surgical intervention, and no gold-standard technique currently exists for managing chronic quadriceps tendon ruptures. The goal of this technique is to provide orthopaedic surgeons an additional option that…

Bone regeneration depends on a pool of bone/cartilage stem/progenitor cells and signaling mechanisms regulating their differentiation. Using in vitro approach, we have shown that PDGF signaling through PDGFRβ inhibits BMP2-induced osteogenesis, and significantly attenuates expression of BMP2 target genes. We evaluated outcomes of treatment with two anabolic agents, PDGF and BMP2 using different…

Mashup Score: 3Editorial Commentary: Shoulder Remplissage Is a Beneficial Addition to Bankart or Glenoid Bone Loss Treatment: Stay on Track and Use Wisely - 1 year(s) ago
In patients with on-track shoulder Hill–Sachs lesions, the addition of remplissage using a double-pulley technique to Bankart repair improves outcomes including residual apprehension and without loss of external rotation. A caveat is that measurement of both the Hill–Sachs lesion and glenoid bone loss may be inconsistent. A second caveat is that determination of the glenoid track can be affected…

Survivors of childhood cancer are at increased risk of any first fracture. Very low lumbar spine BMD was associated with fractures, highlighting the importance of active BMD surveillance in high-risk survivors (ie, those treated with cranial, craniospinal, or total body irradiation). Moreover, our results indicate that intensive surveillance and timely interventions for endocrine disorders and…

Mashup Score: 1Long-term bone health in childhood cancer survivors: underappreciated and undertreated? - 1 year(s) ago
Maintenance of bone quality is an ongoing challenge throughout the lifespan of a cancer survivor. Although bone metastases are the most obvious scenario in which a malignancy negatively affects bone, non-metastatic cancer can also impair bone metabolism by direct (eg, cancer mediated) or indirect (eg, treatment or consequences of such) mechanisms.1 Updated American Society of Clinical Oncology…

Childhood, adolescent, and young adult cancer survivors are at increased risk of reduced bone mineral density. Clinical practice surveillance guidelines are important for timely diagnosis and treatment of these survivors, which could improve bone mineral density parameters and prevent fragility fractures. Discordances across current late effects guidelines necessitated international harmonisation…

Increased fracture risk represents an emerging and severe complication of diabetes. The resulting prolonged immobility and hospitalisations can lead to substantial morbidity and mortality. In type 1 diabetes, bone mass and bone strength are reduced, resulting in up to a five-times greater risk of fractures throughout life. In type 2 diabetes, fracture risk is increased despite a normal bone mass….

Mashup Score: 1Piezo1-mediated mechanotransduction promotes entheseal pathological new bone formation in ankylosing spondylitis - 1 year(s) ago
Objective The aim of this study was to identify the role of Piezo1-mediated mechanotransduction in entheseal pathological new bone formation and to explore the underlying molecular mechanism. Methods Spinal ligament tissues were collected from 14 patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and 14 non-AS controls and bulk RNA sequencing was conducted. Collagen antibody-induced arthritis models were…

Surgical removal of more than just #bonespurs or extra bone in the back of the #elbow will increase #stress on the #ligament. Therefore when performing this #operation I remove only the damaged #bone and #preserve as much normal bone as possible https://t.co/849sZQLPXk 📽️
