PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The traditionally understated role of neural regulation in fracture healing is gaining prominence, as recent findings underscore the peripheral nervous system's critical contribution to bone repair. Indeed, it is becoming more evid...
OBJECTIVE: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a common orthopedic condition that will prompt joint dysfunction, significantly impacting patients' quality of life. However, the specific pathogenic mechanisms underlying this disease remain elu...
Ossification of the ligaments progresses slowly in the initial stages, and most patients are unaware of the disease until obvious myelopathy symptoms appear. Consequently, treatment and clinical outcomes are not satisfactory. This study is aimed at d...
AIM: To report the experience of an image-guided and navigation-based robot arm as an assistive surgical tool for cochlear implantation in a case with a labyrinthitis ossificans.
BACKGROUND: A high false-negative rate has been reported for the diagnosis of ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) using plain radiography. We investigated whether deep learning (DL) can improve the diagnostic performance of rad...

Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) is a key regulator of bone formation, growth and regeneration, which contains a conformational wrist epitope and a linear knuckle epitope that are functionally responsible for the protein by mediating its interact...
Polyphenols are known for their antimicrobial activity, whilst both polyphenols and the globular protein β-lactoglobulin (bLG) are suggested to have antioxidant properties and promote cell proliferation. These are potentially useful properties for a ...
BACKGROUND: Detection of ossification areas of hand bones in X-ray images is an important task, e.g. as a preprocessing step in automated bone age estimation. Deep neural networks have emerged recently as de facto standard detection methods, but thei...
