Background: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), caused by disrupted blood supply leading to bone cell death and joint collapse, remains a critical orthopedic challenge. While core decompression has advanced significantly in ONFH treatment, no bibliometric analysis has mapped its research landscape.
Method: We analyzed 854 articles from the Web of Science Core Collection (1986-2023) using VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and bibliometrix.
Results: Publications surged from 5.4/year (1986-2001) to 52.3/year (2015-2023), reflecting intensified interest. China (253 articles, 29.6%) and the United States (232, 27.2%) dominated contributions, with Stanford University and Johns Hopkins University as top institutions. International collaborations linked China to the United States, Germany, and England. was the most cited journal (4708 citations). Keyword analysis revealed emerging hotspots: mesenchymal stem cells (19 occurrences), cell therapy, and angiogenesis. Citation bursts highlighted Mont MA's seminal work (burst strength: 19.67) on joint-preserving strategies and stem cell-enhanced core decompression.
Conclusion: This first bibliometric study delineates trends, collaborations, and frontiers in core decompression for ONFH, emphasizing the translational potential of stem cell therapies.

Maintenance of core temperature (Tc) is vital for health and physiological function while SCUBA diving in cold water, but there is little research investigating the influence of anthropometrics, suit type, and sex on the rate of change in Tc during real-world diving conditions. We measured the rate of change in Tc (telemetric pill) and thermal sensation (Ts; Young questionnaire) in 62 participants (32 female) before and after non-decompression SCUBA dives using open circuit apparatus breathing air at varied depths and durations in cold water (~ 10 °C). Twenty-three participants wore drysuits (11F), and 39 participants wore wetsuits (21F).

Background: Pleural cavity decompression with surgical tube thoracostomy or placement of a pleural catheter is an integral component of therapy for air or fluid within the pleural cavity and a core skill in emergency medicine.
Objective: This narrative review provides a focused review of tube thoracostomy and pleural catheter placement in the emergency department.
Discussion: Surgical tube thoracostomy or pleural catheter placement is performed to remove air or fluid from the pleural cavity and can be a life-saving procedure with no absolute contraindications.

Core decompression (CD) is a minimally invasive procedure widely used to treat early-stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). However, CD alone often yields suboptimal outcomes in promoting bone regeneration in necrotic lesions, highlighting the need for novel therapeutic approaches. In this study, we evaluated the combined effects of CD surgery and local administration of AKDS001, a small-molecule EP4 receptor agonist, in a canine ONFH model.

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a challenging condition that mainly affects young and middle-aged adults, causing pain, disability, and joint collapse. Current treatment options include medications, physical therapy, and surgical interventions such as core decompression and total hip replacement. However, there is growing interest in regenerative medicine for managing ONFH.

Mantle plumes, the hot upwellings from the Earth's core-mantle boundary, are thought to trigger surface uplift and the emplacement of large igneous provinces (LIPs). Magmatic centres of many LIPs are scattered over thousands of kilometres. This has been attributed to lateral flow of plume material into thin-lithosphere areas, but evidence for such flow is scarce.
