Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone marrow stimulation (BMS) is presently considered first-line surgical treatment for osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs); however, some patients still experience pain or dysfunction after surgery, and the reasons for success or failure remain somewhat unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effect of smoking on postoperative outcomes after arthroscopic BMS for OLTs. METHODS Consecutive patients with OLTs who underwent BMS between January 2017 and January 2020 were included. Smokers were defined as patients who actively consumed cigarettes before surgery and postoperatively, whereas nonsmokers were patients who never smoked. Visual analog scale (VAS), American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society ankle hindfoot score (AOFAS), Karlsson-Peterson, and Tegner scores were assessed preoperatively and at follow-up. Additionally, a general linear model (GLM) was performed, followed by the interaction analysis to explore the potential influence of smoking. RESULTS The study enrolled 104 patients with a mean follow-up of 30.91 ± 7.03 months, including 28 smokers and 76 nonsmokers. There were no significant differences in patient age (35.2 ± 10.0 years vs 37.6 ± 9.7 years, P = .282) or OLT area (63.7 ± 38.7 mm2 vs 52.8 ± 37.0 mm2, P = .782). Both univariate analysis and GLM revealed that smoking was associated with worse postoperative pain levels, Karlsson-Peterson, and AOFAS scores (P < .05). The interaction analysis showed a significant interaction between smoking and OLT area for postoperative Karlsson-Peterson scores (general ankle function) (P = .031). Simple main effects analysis revealed that the negative effect of smoking on Tegner score significantly increased among patients >32 years old or with OLT area>50 mm2 (P < .05). CONCLUSION Smoking was associated with worse clinical outcomes following BMS of OLTs. As the size of OLTs increased, the difference in general ankle function between smokers and nonsmokers also increased. Furthermore, smokers who were older than 32 years or had larger OLTs were less likely to resume participation in high-level activities.

Abstract
Smoking continues to pose a global threat to morbidity and mortality in populations. The detrimental impact of smoking on health and disease includes bone destruction and immune disruption in various diseases. Osteoimmunology, which explores the communication between bone metabolism and immune homeostasis, aims to reveal the interaction between the osteoimmune systems in disease development. Smoking impairs the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells and osteoblasts in bone formation while promoting osteoclast differentiation in bone resorption. Furthermore, smoking stimulates the Th17 response to increase inflammatory and osteoclastogenic cytokines that promote the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) signaling in osteoclasts, thus exacerbating bone destruction in periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis. The pro-inflammatory role of smoking is also evident in delayed bone fracture healing and osteoarthritis development. The osteoimmunological therapies are promising in treating periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis, but further research is still required to block the smoking-induced aggravation in these diseases. Translational potential This review summarizes the adverse effect of smoking on mesenchymal stem cells, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts and elucidates the smoking-induced exacerbation of periodontitis, rheumatoid arthritis, bone fracture healing, and osteoarthritis from an osteoimmune perspective. We also propose the therapeutic potential of osteoimmunological therapies for bone destruction aggravated by smoking.

Abstract
To explore the clinical effect of standing bed combined with early anti-gravity running table training in the healing and functional recovery of anterior rotation external rotation ankle fractures. Fifty-two patients with ankle fractures of degree III or degree IV of PER admitted to Pingle Orthopaedic and Traumatology Hospital of Shenzhen City between September 2021 and January 2023 were selected for observation, and they were divided into 26 cases in each group according to the method of randomised numerical table into the control group and the observation group. The patients in the control group started the routine rehabilitation treatment on the 1st day after operation, and in the 0-2 weeks after operation, the affected limb was elevated and ankle pump training was carried out; in the 3-6 weeks after operation, joint mobility training, strength training and soft tissue release were carried out; and in the 6-8 weeks after operation, weight-bearing training was increased. The observation group added standing bed training on the 7th postoperative day and anti-gravity running table training on the 28th postoperative day on the basis of the treatment protocol of the control group. Bone density, ankle mobility and American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot scores, pain, ankle mobility and swelling evaluations were compared between the 2 groups before and after 8 weeks of treatment, and the quality scores of bone scabs were compared between the 2 groups after 4 weeks of treatment. There was no statistical significance in the comparison of the items between the two groups before treatment (all P > 0.05), and the difference in the bone scab quality score was not statistically significant after 4 weeks of treatment (P > 0.05), and after 8 weeks of treatment, the bone scab quality score, bone mineral density and AOFAS scores, pain, ankle mobility, and evaluations were higher than those of the control group (all P < 0.05), and there was no significant difference in the degree of swelling (P > 0.05). Standing bed combined with early anti-gravity running table training applied to postoperative patients with PER III or IV degree ankle fracture can reduce the degree of pain and improve the ankle joint function.

Abstract
Closed femoral shaft fracture is caused by high-energy injuries, and non-union exists after operation, which can significantly damage patients' body and mind. This study aimed to explore the factors influencing postoperative non-union of closed femoral shaft fractures and establish a predictive nomogram. Patients with closed femoral shaft fractures treated at Hebei Medical University Third Hospital between January 2015 and December 2021 were retrospectively enrolled. A total of 729 patients met the inclusion criteria; of them, those treated in 2015-2019 comprised the training cohort (n = 617), while those treated in 2020-2021 comprised the external validation cohort (n = 112). According to multivariate logistic regression analysis, complex fractures, bone defects, smoking, and postoperative infection were independent risk factors. Based on the factors, a predictive nomogram was constructed and validated. The C-indices in training and external validation cohorts were 0.818 and 0.781, respectively; and the C-index of internal validation via bootstrap resampling was 0.804. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed good fit of the nomogram (P > 0.05) consistent with the calibration plot results. The clinical effectiveness was best at a threshold probability of 0.10-0.40 in decision curve analysis. The risk prediction for patients with fractures using this nomogram may aid targeted prevention and rehabilitation programs.

Abstract
Implant dentistry has evolved to the point that standard implant osseointegration is predictable. This is attributed in part to the advancements in material sciences that have led toward improvements in implant surface technology and characteristics. Nonetheless, there remain several cases where implant therapy fails (specifically at early time points), most commonly attributed to factors affecting bone metabolism. Among these patients, smokers are known to have impaired bone metabolism and thus be subject to higher risks of early implant failure and/or late complications related to the stability of the peri-implant bone and mucosal tissues. Notably, however, emerging data have unveiled other critical factors affecting osseointegration, namely, those related to the metabolism of bone tissues. The aim of this review is to shed light on the effects of implant-related factors, like implant surface or titanium particle release; surgical-related factors, like osseodensification or implanted biomaterials; various drugs, like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, proton pump inhibitors, anti-hypertensives, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication, and statins, and host-related factors, like smoking, diet, and metabolic syndrome on bone metabolism, and aseptic peri-implant bone loss. Despite the infectious nature of peri-implant biological complications, these factors must be surveyed for the effective prevention and management of peri-implantitis.

Abstract
Challenging skeletal repairs are frequently seen in patients experiencing systemic inflammation. To tackle the complexity and heterogeneity of the skeletal repair process, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing and revealed that progenitor cells were one of the major lineages responsive to elevated inflammation and this response adversely affected progenitor differentiation by upregulation of Rbpjk in fracture nonunion. We then validated the interplay between inflammation (via constitutive activation of Ikk2, Ikk2ca) and Rbpjk specifically in progenitors by using genetic animal models. Focusing on epigenetic regulation, we identified Rbpjk as a direct target of Dnmt3b. Mechanistically, inflammation decreased Dnmt3b expression in progenitor cells, consequently leading to Rbpjk upregulation via hypomethylation within its promoter region. We also showed that Dnmt3b loss-of-function mice phenotypically recapitulated the fracture repair defects observed in Ikk2ca-transgenic mice, whereas Dnmt3b-transgenic mice alleviated fracture repair defects induced by Ikk2ca. Moreover, Rbpjk ablation restored fracture repair in both Ikk2ca mice and Dnmt3b loss-of-function mice. Altogether, this work elucidates a common mechanism involving a NF-κB/Dnmt3b/Rbpjk axis within the context of inflamed bone regeneration. Building on this mechanistic insight, we applied local treatment with epigenetically modified progenitor cells in a previously established mouse model of inflammation-mediated fracture nonunion and showed a functional restoration of bone regeneration under inflammatory conditions through an increase in progenitor differentiation potential.

Abstract
Introduction Diabetes mellitus (DM) impairs fracture healing and is associated with susceptibility to infection, which further inhibits fracture healing. While intermittent parathyroid hormone (1-34) (iPTH) effectively improves fracture healing, it is unknown whether infection-associated impaired fracture healing can be rescued with PTH (teriparatide). Methods A chronic diet-induced type 2 diabetic mouse model was used to yield mice with decreased glucose tolerance and increased blood glucose levels compared to lean-fed controls. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was inoculated in a surgical tibia fracture model to simulate infected fracture, after which mice were treated with a combination of antibiotics and adjunctive teriparatide treatment. Fracture healing was assessed by Radiographic Union Scale in Tibial Fractures (RUST), micro-computed tomography (μCT), biomechanical testing, and histology. Results RUST score was significantly poorer in diabetic mice compared to their lean nondiabetic counterparts. There were concomitant reductions in micro-computed tomography (μCT) parameters of callus architecture including bone volume/total volume, trabecular thickness, and total mineral density in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) mice. Biomechanicaltesting of fractured femora demonstrated diminished torsional rigidity, stiffness, and toughness to max torque. Adjuvant teriparatide treatment with systemic antibiotic therapy improved numerous parameters of bone microarchitecture bone volume, increased connectivity density, and increased trabecular number in both the lean and T2DM group. Despite the observation that poor fracture healing in T2DM mice was further impaired by MRSA infection, adjuvant iPTH treatment significantly improved fracture healing compared to antibiotic treatment alone in infected T2DM fractures. Discussion Our results suggest that teriparatide may constitute a viable adjuvant therapeutic agent to improve bony union and bone microarchitecture to prevent the development of septic nonunion under diabetic conditions.

Abstract
Smoking is a major risk factor for delayed fracture healing, affecting several aspects of early fracture repair, including inflammation, osteogenesis, and angiogenesis. Panax ginseng (GE) and maqui berry extract (MBE) were shown in our previous studies to reduce smoke-induced cellular damage in late bone-healing in vitro models. We aimed here to analyze their effects on the early fracture repair of smokers in a 3D co-culture model of fracture hematomas and endothelial cells. Both extracts did not alter the cellular viability at concentrations of up to 100 µg/mL. In early fracture repair in vitro, they were unable to reduce smoking-induced inflammation and induce osteo- or chondrogenicity. Regarding angiogenesis, smoking-induced stress in HUVECs could not be counteracted by both extracts. Furthermore, smoking-impaired tube formation was not restored by GE but was harmed by MBE. However, GE promoted angiogenesis initiation under smoking conditions via the Angpt/Tie2 axis. To summarize, cigarette smoking strikingly affected early fracture healing processes in vitro, but herbal extracts at the applied doses had only a limited effect. Since both extracts were shown before to be very effective in later stages of fracture healing, our data suggest that their early use immediately after fracture does not appear to negatively impact later beneficial effects.

Abstract
Cigarette smoking promotes osteoclast activity, thus increasing the risk of secondary osteoporosis, leading to osteoporosis-associated fracture and impaired fracture healing. Heated tobacco products (HTP) are considered potential reduced-risk alternatives to cigarettes. However, their impact on bone metabolism remains to be elucidated. We developed an in vitro model that mimics in vivo bone cell interactions to comparatively evaluate the effects of HTPs and cigarette smoke on bone cell functionality and viability. We generated an in vitro coculture system with SCP-1 and THP-1 cells (1:8 ratio) cultured on a decellularized Saos-2 matrix with an optimized coculture medium. We found that, following acute or chronic exposure, particulate matter extract from the aerosol of an HTP, the Tobacco Heating System (THS), was less harmful to the bone coculture system than reference cigarette (1R6F) smoke extract. In the fracture healing model, cultures exposed to the THS extract maintained similar osteoclast activity and calcium deposits as control cultures. Conversely, smoke extract exposure promoted osteoclast activity, resulting in an osteoporotic environment, whose formation could be prevented by bisphosphonate coadministration. Thus, THS is potentially less harmful than cigarette smoke to bone cell differentiation and bone mineralization - both being crucial aspects during the reparative phase of fracture healing.

Abstract
Cigarette smoking-induced oxidative stress has harmful effects on bone metabolism. Maqui berry extract (MBE) and ginseng extract (GE) are two naturally occurring antioxidants that have been shown to reduce oxidative stress. By using an osteoblast and osteoclast three-dimensional co-culture system, we investigated the effects of MBE and GE on bone cells exposed to cigarette smoke extract (CSE). The cell viability and function of the co-culture system were measured on day 14. Markers of bone cell differentiation and oxidative stress were evaluated at gene and protein levels on day 7. The results showed that exposure to CSE induced osteoporotic-like alterations in the co-culture system, while 1.5 µg/mL MBE and 50 µg/mL GE improved CSE-impaired osteoblast function and decreased CSE-induced osteoclast function. The molecular mechanism of MBE and GE in preventing CSE-induced bone cell damage is linked with the inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway and the activation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway. Therefore, MBE and GE can reduce CSE-induced detrimental effects on bone cells and, thus, prevent smoking-induced alterations in bone cell homeostasis. These two antioxidants are thus suitable supplements to support bone regeneration in smokers.

Abstract
More than 2.1 million age-related fractures occur in the United States annually, resulting in an immense socioeconomic burden. Importantly, the age-related deterioration of bone structure is associated with impaired bone healing. Fracture healing is a dynamic process which can be divided into four stages. While the initial hematoma generates an inflammatory environment in which mesenchymal stem cells and macrophages orchestrate the framework for repair, angiogenesis and cartilage formation mark the second healing period. In the central region, endochondral ossification favors soft callus development while next to the fractured bony ends, intramembranous ossification directly forms woven bone. The third stage is characterized by removal and calcification of the endochondral cartilage. Finally, the chronic remodeling phase concludes the healing process. Impaired fracture healing due to aging is related to detrimental changes at the cellular level. Macrophages, osteocytes, and chondrocytes express markers of senescence, leading to reduced self-renewal and proliferative capacity. A prolonged phase of "inflammaging" results in an extended remodeling phase, characterized by a senescent microenvironment and deteriorating healing capacity. Although there is evidence that in the setting of injury, at least in some tissues, senescent cells may play a beneficial role in facilitating tissue repair, recent data demonstrate that clearing senescent cells enhances fracture repair. In this review, we summarize the physiological as well as pathological processes during fracture healing in endocrine disease and aging in order to establish a broad understanding of the biomechanical as well as molecular mechanisms involved in bone repair.

Abstract
Periodontitis involves the loss of connective tissue attachment and alveolar bone. Single cell RNA-seq experiments have provided new insight into how resident cells and infiltrating immune cells function in response to bacterial challenge in periodontal tissues. Periodontal disease is induced by a combined innate and adaptive immune response to bacterial dysbiosis that is initiated by resident cells including epithelial cells and fibroblasts, which recruit immune cells. Chemokines and cytokines stimulate recruitment of osteoclast precursors and osteoclastogenesis in response to TNF, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17, RANKL and other factors. Inflammation also suppresses coupled bone formation to limit repair of osteolytic lesions. Bone lining cells, osteocytes and periodontal ligament cells play a key role in both processes. The periodontal ligament contains cells that exhibit similarities to tendon cells, osteoblast-lineage cells and mesenchymal stem cells. Bone lining cells consisting of mesenchymal stem cells, osteoprogenitors and osteoblasts are influenced by osteocytes and stimulate formation of osteoclast precursors through MCSF and RANKL, which directly induce osteoclastogenesis. Following bone resorption, factors are released from resorbed bone matrix and by osteoclasts and osteal macrophages that recruit osteoblast precursors to the resorbed bone surface. Osteoblast differentiation and coupled bone formation are regulated by multiple signaling pathways including Wnt, Notch, FGF, IGF-1, BMP, and Hedgehog pathways. Diabetes, cigarette smoking and aging enhance the pathologic processes to increase bone resorption and inhibit coupled bone formation to accelerate bone loss. Other bone pathologies such as rheumatoid arthritis, post-menopausal osteoporosis and bone unloading/disuse also affect osteoblast lineage cells and participate in formation of osteolytic lesions by promoting bone resorption and inhibiting coupled bone formation. Thus, periodontitis involves the activation of an inflammatory response that involves a large number of cells to stimulate bone resorption and limit osseous repair processes.

Abstract
The stimulator of interferon genes (STING), one of the critical factors of innate immunity, is indicated to be closely related to angiogenesis. This study examined STING's role in angiogenesis and the formation of type H vessels, a specific subtype of bone vessels that regulates bone healing. Different concentrations of 2',3'-cGAMP, and H-151 or C-176 were applied to activate or inhibit STING, respectively. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were used to examine the effect of STING on angiogenesis in vitro; cell viability, cell migration, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reactions were performed. Also, the metatarsal experiment was applied as ex vivo proof. Bone fracture or defect mice models were used to examine the effect of STING in vivo; the bone healing process was evaluated by radiography weekly and by μCT on the 14th day after surgery. The formation of type H vessels (CD31hi Emcnhi endothelial cells) and osteogenesis (OCN-positive cells) was assessed using the cryosection and paraffin section. STING activation inhibited angiogenesis both in vitro and ex vivo and slowed down the bone healing process in vivo. Histological analysis showed an increased callus formation, fewer type H vessels, and almost no callus mineralization in the STING activation group compared to the control group. By contrast, H-151 (a hsSTING inhibitor) promoted angiogenesis at a low dose. Moreover, inhibition of mmSTING by C-176 enhanced type H vessels' formation, implying osteogenesis promotion in bone healing (higher bone volume density and more OCN-positive cells). Our data suggested that STING inhibition accelerates the bone healing process while enhancing type H vessel formation.

Abstract
Between 5 and 10 percent of fractures do not heal, a condition known as nonunion. In clinical practice, stable fracture fixation associated with autologous iliac crest bone graft placement is the gold standard for treatment. However, some recalcitrant nonunions do not resolve satisfactorily with this technique. For these cases, biological alternatives are sought based on the molecular mechanisms of bone healing, whose most recent findings are reviewed in this article. The pro-osteogenic efficacy of morin (a pale yellow crystalline flavonoid pigment found in old fustic and osage orange trees) has recently been reported, and the combined use of bone morphogenetic protein-9 (BMP9) and leptin might improve fracture healing. Inhibition with methyl-piperidino-pyrazole of estrogen receptor alpha signaling delays bone regeneration. Smoking causes a chondrogenic disorder, aberrant activity of the skeleton’s stem and progenitor cells, and an intense initial inflammatory response. Smoking cessation 4 weeks before surgery is therefore highly recommended. The delay in fracture consolidation in diabetic animals is related to BMP6 deficiency (35 kDa). The combination of bioceramics and expanded autologous human mesenchymal stem cells from bone marrow is a new and encouraging alternative for treating recalcitrant nonunions.
