RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Regenerative techniques combined with core decompression (CD) are commonly used to treat osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). However, no consensus exists on regeneration therapy combined with CD that performs optimally. Therefore, we evaluated six regenerative therapies combined with CD treatment using a Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA). METHODS: We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases. Six common regeneration techniques were categorized into the following groups with CD as the control group: (1) autologous bone graft (ABG), (2) autologous bone graft combined with bone marrow aspirate concentrate (ABG + BMAC), (3) bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC), (4) free vascular autologous bone graft (FVBG), (5) expanded mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and (6) platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The conversion rate to total hip arthroplasty (THA) and progression rate to femoral head necrosis were compared among the six treatments. RESULT: A total of 17 literature were included in this study. In the NMA, two of the six treatment strategies demonstrated higher response in preventing the progression of ONFH than CD: MSCs (odds ratio [OR]: 0.098, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.0087-0.87) and BMAC (OR: 0.27, 95% CI: 0.073-0.73). Additionally, two of the six treatment strategies were effective techniques in preventing the conversion of ONFH to THA: MSCs (OR: 0.062, 95% CI: 0.0038-0.40) and BMAC (OR: 0.32, 95% CI: 0.1-0.074). No significant difference was found among FVBG, PRP, ABG + BMAC, ABG, and CD in preventing ONFH progression and conversion to THA (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Our NMA found that MSCs and BMAC were effective in preventing ONFH progression and conversion to THA among the six regenerative therapies. According to the surface under the cumulative ranking value, MSCs ranked first, followed by BMAC. Additionally, based on our NMA results, MSCs and BMAC following CD may be necessary to prevent ONFH progression and conversion to THA. Therefore, these findings provide evidence for the use of regenerative therapy for ONFH.

BACKGROUND: Despite several surgical options, there remains no consensus regarding the optimal approach for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), a prevalent and refractory disease. To determine the most suitable treatment modality, we compared randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluated multiple surgical treatments for ONFH using a Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA). METHODS: The outcomes of 11 different surgical treatments were assessed using NMA comparisons of the rate of progression of femoral head necrosis, the rate of conversion to total hip arthroplasty, and improvement of the Harris hip score (HHS). A random effects model was used to analyze the odds ratio (OR) or mean difference, and risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane risk of bias assessment tool for randomized trials. The confidence of the results was assessed using the confidence in network meta-analysis tool. RESULTS: A total of 18 RCTs were included in the meta-analysis. Compared with core decompression (CD), the forest plot showed that autologous bone grafting (ABG), free fibula grafting (FFG), vascularized bone grafting (VBG), autologous bone grafting combined with bone marrow aspirate concentrate (ABG + BMAC), and biomaterial grafting combined with vascularized bone grafting (BMG + VBG) delayed ONFH progression. Among them, ABG + BMAC showed the most promising results (OR 0.019; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.0012-0.25). However, upon comparing CD with different surgical modalities, no significant differences were found in preventing total hip arthroplasty. Furthermore, we cannot draw conclusions regarding the HHS due to attribution and high heterogeneity across the studies. CONCLUSION: Overall, ABG, VBG, FFG, ABG + BMAC, and BMG + VBG showed significant results in preventing ONFH progression compared with that shown by CD. Based on the surface under the cumulative ranking, ABG + BMAC was the most effective. Moreover, all treatments involving bone grafting were found to be effective, possibly indicating the necessity of its use in the treatment of ONFH.

Background: Osteosarcopenia(OS) is a significant health concern resulting from the ageing process. Currently, as the population grows older, the prevalence of OS, a disease that entails the synchronous degeneration of muscles and bones, is mounting. This poses a serious threat to the health of the elderly while placing an enormous burden on social care. In order to comprehend the pathological mechanism of OS and develop clinical drugs, it is pertinent to construct an efficient animal model of OS. To investigate the modeling techniques of diverse experimental models of OS and elucidate their respective benefits and drawbacks, with the purpose of furnishing a theoretical foundation to advance experimental research on OS. Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase database, China Knowledge Network, Wanfang data platform and Vipshop journal platform databases from 2000 through to September 1, 2023. We included animal studies on sarcopenia or osteoporosis or osteosarcopenia or sarcopenia-osteoporosis, modeling methods for osteosarcopenia. Two independently screened study abstracts and full reports and complete data extraction. Results: Eventually, Of 112, 106 citations screened. 4938 underwent full-text review and 38 met the inclusion criteria. we reviewed and analyzed the literature and categorized the animal models of OS into the following five categories: Aging OS models; Hormonal deficiency model of OS;Chemical injection to induce OS;Disuse OS models and Genetic engineering OS models. Conclusion: This review outlines animal modeling approaches for OS, providing a comprehensive summary of their advantages and disadvantages. The different models were evaluated and selected based on their respective strengths and weaknesses to enable higher quality research outcomes in various research directions. The most widely used and established approach is considered to be the ageing and chemical injection OS model, which has the advantages of excellent reproducibility and low cost. The translational potential of this article: To gain a profound comprehension of the pathological mechanism of OS and to devise efficacious clinical treatments, it is imperative to establish a viable laboratory animal model of OS. This article surveys various modeling techniques assessing their benefits, drawbacks and areas of applicability while predominantly employing mice as the primary model animal. Additionally, the evaluation indicators of OS models are briefly described.

This review summarizes the sclerotic zone's pathophysiology, characterization, formation process, and impact on femoral head necrosis. The sclerotic zone is a reaction interface formed during the repair of femoral head necrosis. Compared with normal bone tissue, the mechanical properties of the sclerotic zone are significantly enhanced. Many factors influence the formation of the sclerotic zone, including mechanics, bone metabolism, angiogenesis, and other biological processes. The sclerotic zone plays an essential role in preventing the collapse of the femoral head and can predict the risk of the collapse of the femoral head. Regulating the formation of the sclerotic zone of the femoral head has become a direction worthy of study in treating femoral head necrosis.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Bone grafting is considered a method that can provide mechanical and structural support to the femoral head and prevent the collapse of the femoral head after core decompression (CD). However, there are no consensus guidelines on which bone grafting method is best after CD. The authors assessed the efficacy of various bone grafting modalities and CD through a Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ten articles were retrieved from PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Library searches. Bone graft modalities are categorized into four, and CD is the control group: (1) CD, (2) autologous bone graft (ABG), (3) biomaterial bone graft (BBG), (4) bone graft combined with bone marrow graft (BG+BM), and (5) free vascular bone graft (FVBG). The rates of conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA), femoral head necrosis progression rate, and Harris hip score (HHS) improvement were compared among the five treatments. RESULTS: A total of 816 hips were included in the NMA: specifically, 118 hips in CD, 334 in ABG, 133 in BBG, 113 in BG+BM, and 118 in FVBG. The NMA results show no significant differences in preventing conversion to THA and improving HHS in each group. All bone graft methods are better than CD in preventing osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) progress [ABG: odds ratio (OR)=0.21, 95% CI: 0.07-0.56; BBG: OR=0.13, 95% CI: 0.03-0.52; BG+BM: OR=0.06, 95% CI: 0.01-0.24; FVBG: OR=0.11, 95% CI: 0.02-0.38]. The rankgrams indicate that BG+BM is the best intervention in preventing conversion to THA (73%), preventing ONFH progress (75%), and improving HHS (57%), followed by the BBG in preventing conversion to THA (54%), improving HHS (38%), and the FVBG in preventing ONFH progress (42%). CONCLUSIONS: This finding indicates that bone grafting after CD is necessary to prevent ONFH progression. Moreover, bone grafts combined with bone marrow grafts and BBG seem to be effective treatment methods in ONFH.

The lack of mechanical support in the bone tunnel formed after CD often results in a poor therapeutic effect in ONFH. The n-HA/P66 has excellent biocompatibility and mechanical properties and has been widely used in bone regeneration. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of n-HA/P66 scaffold treatment in a dog model of ONFH. A FEA was performed to analyze the mechanical changes in the femoral head after CD and n-HA/P66 scaffold or tantalum rod implantation. Fifteen male beagles were selected to establish the model of ONFH by liquid nitrogen freezing method, and the models were identified by x-ray and MRI 4 weeks after modeling and randomly divided into three groups. Nine weeks later, femoral head samples were taken for morphology, micro-CT, and histological examination. The FEA showed that the n-HA/P66 scaffold proved the structural support in the bone tunnel, similar to the tantalum rod. The morphology showed that the femoral head with n-HA/P66 implantation is intact, while the femoral heads in the model group and CD group are collapsing. Moreover, the micro-CT results of the n-HA/P66 scaffold group were better than the model group and the CD group, and the interface between the n-HA/P66 scaffold and bone tissue is blurred. Furthermore, the histological result also verifies the alterations in micro-CT, and bone tissue grows in the bone tunnel with n-HA/P66 scaffold implanted while few in the CD group. The CD results in a lack of mechanical support in the femoral head subchondral bone and bone tunnel high stress. The n-HA/P66 scaffold implantation can provide mechanical support and relieve high stress induced by CD. The n-HA/P66 scaffold can treat femoral head necrosis and provide the bone tissue growth scaffold for the femoral head after CD to promote bone tissue regeneration.
