Article Abstract
Osteoporotic fractures are induced by osteoporosis, which may lead to the degradation of bone tissues and microstructures and impair their healing ability. Conventional internal fixation therapies are ineffective in the treatment of osteoporotic fractures. Hence, developing tissue engineering materials is crucial for repairing osteoporotic fractures. It has been demonstrated that nanomaterials, particularly graphene oxide (GO), possess unique advantages in tissue engineering due to their excellent biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and osteoinductive abilities. Based on that, GO-nanocomposites have garnered significant attention and hold promising prospects for bone repair applications. This paper provides a comprehensive insight into the properties of GO, preparation methods for nanocomposites, advantages of these materials, and relevant mechanisms for osteoporotic fracture applications.

Nonoperative treatment versus volar locking plating for distal radius fracture in patients aged 65 years or older (DRIFT trial): A randomized controlled trial.
PLoS Med

Department of Orthopaedics, Tampere University Hospital, Tampere, Finland.
Background: The optimal management of distal radius fractures (DRFs) in older patients remains debatable. A knowledge gap exists concerning how to manage fractures with early malalignment during nonoperative treatment. We conducted a prospective, multicenter, and randomized controlled trial to compare nonoperative treatment to operative treatment with volar locking plating (VLP) in the management of primarily malaligned DRFs and DRFs that exhibit early malalignment during nonoperative treatment.

Direct in vivo mechanical assessment of cortical bone strength may address this diagnostic gap by capturing structural and material properties that govern whole-bone strength but are not reflected by BMD. We conducted a multicenter case-control study with cross-sectional assessment to compare ulna flexural rigidity, a biomechanical property correlated with whole-bone strength (R² ≈ 0.

Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Vienna Healthcare Group, Clinic Donaustadt, Vienna, Austria.
Background: The incidence of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fragility fractures is increasing due to demographic changes. Therefore, early diagnosis is desirable in order to preserve bone health and prevent low-trauma fractures. Opportunistic screening for osteoporosis by frequently performed computed tomography scans could offer a potential solution.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of initiating osteoporosis medication within 3 months after a fracture and continuing it for at least 6 months in preventing secondary fractures among individuals aged ≥ 75 years.
Percutaneous kyphoplasty and risk factors for new vertebral compression fractures: The role of bone quality and paraspinal muscle degeneration.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF) are a common complication of osteoporosis, particularly in elderly populations. Percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) is a minimally invasive procedure that provides pain relief and spinal stability for patients with OVCF. However, new vertebral compression fractures (NVCF) can occur in 2% to 38% of patients following PKP, posing a significant clinical challenge.
