Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) and Klotho Protein in Beta-Thalassemia
(2020)Derangements in phosphate and calcium homeostasis are common in patients with beta-thalassemia. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is among the main hormones regulating phosphate levels, while several studies underline ... -
Genetic variation in Wnt/β-catenin and ER signalling pathways in female and male elite dancers and its associations with low bone mineral density: a cross-section and longitudinal study
(2018)Summary: The association of genetic polymorphisms with low bone mineral density in elite athletes have not been considered previously. The present study found that bone mass phenotypes in elite and pre-elite dancers are ... -
Lessons from pathophysiology: Use of individualized combination treatments with immune interventional agents to tackle severe respiratory failure in patients with COVID-19
(2021)Aims Infection by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) may lead to the development of severe respiratory failure. In hospitalized-patients, prompt interruption of the virus-driven inflammatory process ... -
Meta-analysis of genome-wide scans provides evidence for sex- and site-specific regulation of bone mass
(2007)Introduction: BMD is a heritable trait and an important predictor of osteoporotic fracture risk. Several genome-wide scans have been performed in an attempt to detect loci that regulate BMD, but there has been limited ... -
MR imaging of transient osteoporosis of the hip: An update on 155 hip joints
(2015)Purpose: Transient osteoporosis of the hip (TOH) presents with acute onset pain and bone marrow edema (BMe) on MR imaging. The purpose of this study is to revise the MR imaging characteristics of TOH by analyzing the data ... -
MRI of the hip: Current concepts on bone marrow oedema
(2017)Bone marrow oedema (BME) is commonly found in hip MR imaging. BME is a nonspecific finding which can be related to a wide variety of diseases. However, there are cases where its existence or its pattern can narrow the ... -
Multicenter cross-sectional study of patients with rheumatoid arthritis in Greece: Results from a cohort of 2.491 patients
(2018)Aim of the study: To evaluate the current disease characteristics, treatment and comorbidities of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Greece. Methods: Multicenter, cross-sectional study with a 9-month recruitment period between ... -
A neuroprotective bovine colostrum attenuates apoptosis in dexamethasone‐treated mc3t3‐e1 osteoblastic cells
(2021)Glucocorticoid‐induced osteoporosis (GIO) is one of the most common secondary forms of osteoporosis. GIO is partially due to the apoptosis of osteoblasts and osteocytes. In addition, high doses of dexamethasone (DEX), a ... -
New horizons in applied musculoskeletal research
(2000)Are you prey to information overload? Do you wonder how you can determine what is useful for your purposes? Do you wonder about the relevance of some articles to your particular discipline? Nowadays, the explosion of ... -
Pharmacological and Non-Pharmacological Agents versus Bovine Colostrum Supplementation for the Management of Bone Health Using an Osteoporosis-Induced Rat Model
(2022)Osteoporosis is defined by loss of bone mass and deteriorated bone microarchitecture. The present study compared the effects of available pharmacological and non-pharmacological agents for osteoporosis [alendronate (ALE) ... -

Prevalence of comorbidities in systemic sclerosis versus rheumatoid arthritis: a comparative, multicenter, matched-cohort study
(2018)BACKGROUND: Comorbidities are common in chronic systemic connective tissue diseases and are associated with adverse outcomes, increased morbidity and mortality. Although the prevalence of comorbidities has been well-studied ... -
Pulmonary function abnormalities in young adults with thalassemia major
(1997)Thalassemia seems to be the most common genetic disorder. The pathophysiologic mechanisms for lung impairment is not clear. Lung function tests in children showed small airway obstruction and restrictive lung changes. ... -
Quadratus femoris tear as an unusual cause of hip pain: A case report
(2016)Purpose: To show that quadratus femoris muscle partial or complete tear is an extremely rare if not underdiagnosed cause of hip pain. Methods: We present the case of a 75-year-old Caucasian woman with spontaneous non-traumatic ... -
Radiomics and machine learning can differentiate transient osteoporosis from avascular necrosis of the hip
(2021)Differentiation between transient osteoporosis (TOH) and avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip is a longstanding challenge in musculoskeletal radiology. The purpose of this study was to utilize MRI-based radiomics and machine ... -
Searching for the ‘winner’ hip fracture patient: the effect of modifiable and non-modifiable factors on clinical outcomes following hip fracture surgery
(2021)Background: Various factors, other than the quality of surgery, may influence clinical outcomes of hip fracture patients. We aimed to evaluate the relative impact of several factors on functional outcome, quality of life, ... -
Total hip arthroplasty in patients with osteoporosis
(2020)There is a high prevalence of osteoporosis in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. There are several clinically relevant questions related to the management of such cases: the effect of ageing; the initial ... -
Treatment patterns and achievement of the treat-to-target goals in a real-life rheumatoid arthritis patient cohort: data from 1317 patients
(2020)Background: Data regarding the real-life predictors of low disease activity (LDA) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients are limited. Our aim was to evaluate the rate and predictors of LDA and treatment patterns in RA. ...
