Mashup Score: 2
Commentary on: Schene MR, Wyers CE, Driessen AMH, et al . Imminent fall risk after fracture. Age Ageing 2023; 52:1-9. Imminent fall risk can be defined similarly to imminent fracture risk, that is, a 12-month or 24-month increased risk after the index event, which declines over time.1 This study by Schene and colleagues compares the fall risk of a large cohort of adults who experienced a fracture with fracture-free matched controls, to assess whether fall risk after the index fracture is time-dependent.2 This retrospective …

Mashup Score: 0Phase III clinical trial of autologous CD34 + cell transplantation to accelerate fracture nonunion repair - BMC Medicine - 2 year(s) ago
Background We previously demonstrated that CD34 + cell transplantation in animals healed intractable fractures via osteogenesis and vasculogenesis; we also demonstrated the safety and efficacy of this cell therapy in an earlier phase I/II clinical trial conducted on seven patients with fracture nonunion. Herein, we present the results of a phase III clinical trial conducted to confirm the results of the previous phase studies using a larger cohort of patients. Methods CD34 + cells were mobilized via administration of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, harvested using leukapheresis, and isolated using magnetic cell sorting. Autologous CD34 + cells were transplanted in 15 patients with tibia nonunion and 10 patients with femur nonunion, who were followed up for 52 weeks post transplantation. The main outcome was a reduction in time to heal the tibia in nonunion patients compared with that in historical control patients. We calculated the required number of patients as 15 based on the

Mashup Score: 0No interaction observed between bone, muscle variables for fracture risk for older men - 2 year(s) ago
Muscle mass as measured through high-resolution peripheral quantitative CT may not interact with bone measures to affect the risk for fractures among older men, though more studies are needed, according to study data. “In this prospective study of older men, there were no consistent interactions between bone and muscle on fracture risk when using advancing medical imaging,” Ben Kirk,

Mashup Score: 0
Older men who have a rapid decline in cortical bone over 4 years have a higher risk for sustaining a future fracture, according to findings published in The Journal of Bone and Mineral Research. “Men with rapid bone loss typically have poorer microarchitecture, thinner cortices and lower estimated bone strength than men without rapid bone loss,” Pawel Szulc, MD, PhD, senior research
