Abstract
PURPOSE Steroid-related osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), arising from steroid administration for underlying diseases, represents a unique pathology for total hip arthroplasty (THA) and typically affects a younger demographic compared to osteoarthritis (OA). Given the significant age-related differences, this study aims to employ propensity score matching to align patient backgrounds between these two diseases and compare physical function. Additionally, our objective is to scrutinize the patterns of clinical score recovery over the course of one year following THA. METHODS Using propensity score matching, 29 patients each with steroid-related ONFH and OA were selected. Muscle strength (hip abductor and knee extensor) were assessed before and after THA. Additionally, recovery of the Harris Hip Score (HHS) and Oxford Hip Score (OHS) up to one year postoperatively was analyzed. RESULTS The steroid-related ONFH group exhibited gender bias and significantly younger age compared to the OA group. Propensity score matching achieved balanced patient backgrounds. Physical function showed trends of lower hip abduction and knee extensor strength on the operative side in the steroid-related ONFH group. Notably, nonoperative knee extensor strength decreased significantly after matching. HHS and OHS were poor in steroid-related ONFH up to three months postoperatively but recovered after six months. CONCLUSIONS Patients with steroid-related ONFH experience positive outcomes in clinical score following THA. Propensity score matching effectively identified muscle weakness on both operative and nonoperative sides, highlighting its utility in comparative analyses.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study retrospectively evaluated long-term clinical outcomes and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) who underwent transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy (TRO), curved varus osteotomy (CVO), and total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the 109 hips in 96 patients (46 men, 50 women) who underwent CVO, TRO, or THA for ONFH treatment. The mean follow-up period for the TRO, CVO, and THA groups was 14.8, 11.5, and 13.3 years, respectively. RESULTS The THA conversion rate of the TRO patients was significantly higher than that of the patients with CVO, and the final clinical scores in the patients with TRO did not improve compared with preoperative scores. Postoperative PROMs showed that the total and pain scores of the patients with THA were significantly higher than those of patients with TRO and CVO, while the PROM score did not change between patients with TRO and CVO. The analysis further showed that the preoperative type C2, stage 3A, or postoperative type C1 and C2 were significant predictors of decreased final PROM scores. CONCLUSION This study found that CVO and THA are clinically effective treatments for ONFH, with significant improvements compared with preoperative scores. However, THA was associated with significantly higher PROMs and pain scores than those of CVO and TRO in long-term follow-up. Furthermore, our results suggest that postoperative PROMs depend mainly on the preoperative level of collapse and postoperative transposed intact ratio of the articular surface of the femoral head.

Abstract
Hormonal necrosis of the femoral head is caused by long-term use of glucocorticoids and other causes of abnormal bone metabolism, lipid metabolism imbalance and blood microcirculation disorders in the femoral head, resulting in bone trabecular fracture, bone tissue necrosis collapse, and hip dysfunction. It is the most common type of non-traumatic necrosis of the femoral head, and its pathogenesis is complex, while impaired blood circulation is considered to be the key to its occurrence. There are a large number of microvessels in the femoral head, among which H-type vessels play a decisive role in the "angiogenesis and osteogenesis coupling", and thus have an important impact on the occurrence and development of femoral head necrosis. Glucocorticoids can cause blood flow injury of the femoral head mainly through coagulation dysfunction, endothelial dysfunction and impaired angiogenesis. Glucocorticoids may inhibit the formation of H-type vessels by reducing the expression of HIF-1α, PDGF-BB, VGEF and other factors, thus causing damage to the "angiogenesis-osteogenesis coupling" and reducing the ability of necrosis reconstruction and repair of the femoral head. Leads to the occurrence of hormonal femoral head necrosis. Therefore, this paper reviewed the progress in the study of the mechanism of hormone-induced femoral head necrosis based on microvascular blood flow at home and abroad, hoping to provide new ideas for the study of the mechanism of femoral head necrosis and provide references for clinical treatment of femoral head necrosis.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 is known to cause severe acute respiratory syndrome, and serious cases need to be treated with corticosteroids. Herein, we report an 87-year-old woman who developed bilateral osteonecrosis of the femoral head after corticosteroid treatment for coronavirus disease 2019-related pneumonia. Sixteen months after treatment, she developed right hip pain without any evidence of trauma. A diagnosis of bilateral osteonecrosis of the femoral head was made based on sclerotic bands on plain radiographs and low-signal bands on T1-weighted magnetic resonance images. The patient underwent right total hip arthroplasty 4 months after symptom onset. Histological examination of the resected femoral head revealed pathological evidence of osteonecrosis. The postoperative course was good, and the patient can now walk unassisted. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of histologically proven osteonecrosis after corticosteroid therapy for coronavirus disease 2019-related disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study assessed the hip survival rate and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) of transtrochanteric curved varus osteotomy (CVO) for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) compared with those of conservative management. METHODS The CVO group comprised 32 consecutive patients (39 hips) who underwent CVO for ONFH between 2000 and 2011. The conservative group consisted of 36 consecutive patients (37 hips) who were managed conservatively for at least 1 year after collapse and who had ONFH classified by the Japanese Investigation Committee of Health and Welfare as type B or C1, for which CVO is indicated. Kaplan-Meier analysis of hip survival used any ONFH-related therapeutic surgery as the endpoint. PROMs were evaluated for all patients with surviving hips and radiographs available at the latest follow-up. RESULT The 10-year hip survival rate in the CVO group was 86.7%, which was significantly higher than the 51.0% 5-year survival rate in the conservative group (p < 0.0001). The Oxford Hip Score and UCLA Activity Score were significantly better in the CVO group without joint space narrowing than in the conservative group, with no significant differences between the CVO group with joint space narrowing and the conservative group. CONCLUSION CVO could preserve hip joints more effectively than conservative follow-up after collapse, although the presence of joint space narrowing could reduce satisfaction levels even in patients with long-term hip survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Core decompression surgery is an effective treatment method for patients with pre-collapse osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). The treatment relies on accurately predrilling the wire into the necrotic lesion. However, the surgical planning of this drilling path remains unclear. This paper aims to develop a framework to automatically plan the drilling path and analyze its geometric parameters. METHODOLOGY The proposed system consists of two stages. The first stage is to detect the key points. Besides the entry point and target point for the drilling path, the center of the femoral head (FH) and the boundary points of the necrotic lesion are also detected for the subsequent geometric analysis. In the second stage, the geometric parameters of the drilling path are analyzed, including the size of the necrotic lesion, the length from the entry point to the target point, the relative location between the FH center and the necrosis center, and the angular range of the drilling path in the anterior-posterior (AP) direction and superior-inferior (SI) direction. RESULTS All of the drilling paths designed by the proposed system were considered successful, starting from the proximal subtrochanteric region, terminating at the center of the necrotic lesion, and remaining within the femoral neck. The relative coordinates of the centers of the femoral head and necrotic lesion were (-0.89,5.14,2.63) mm for the left femurs and (1.55,5.92,2.63) mm for the right femurs, on average. The angular range of the drilling path was 39.99±29.58 degrees in the SI direction and 46.18±40.73 degrees in the AP direction. CONCLUSION This study develops a framework that allows for automatic planning and geometric analysis of the drilling path in core decompression surgery. The target point of the drilling path primarily resides in the lateral-anterior-superior region relative to the femoral head center. Surgeons and researchers can benefit from our unified framework while still maintaining the flexibility to adapt to variations in surgical cases.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a debilitating condition characterized by subchondral bone necrosis, which frequently culminates in joint destruction. Although total hip arthroplasty is conventionally practiced to remediate ONFH, for patients under the age of 60, the outcomes can be suboptimal. Chronic inflammation, particularly that mediated by interleukin-6 (IL-6), has been conjectured to be a potential mechanism underlying the etiology of ONFH. This study aimed at exploring the interplay between IL-6, the canonical Wnt signaling pathway, and ONFH to provide insights for potential therapeutic interventions. Human ONFH specimens depicted an elevation in β-catenin expression in the transitional layer, while IL-6 levels were pronounced in the same region. Subsequently, mouse models of ischemic osteonecrosis were treated with an anti-sclerostin antibody to assess its effects on bone metabolism and cellular processes. Histological analysis revealed that the administration of anti-sclerostin antibodies effectuated early recovery from bone necrosis, reduced empty lacunae, and suppressed IL-6 expression. The treatment evidently initiated the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, presenting a potential mechanism associated with IL-6-mediated inflammation. Furthermore, the antibody upregulated osteoblast formation, downregulated osteoclast formation, and increased bone volume. Micro-CT imaging demonstrated increased bone volume, prevented epiphyseal deformity, and improved compression strength. Therefore, this study yields significant findings, indicating the potency of anti-sclerostin antibodies in effectively modulating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, associating with IL-6 expression, and preventing post-ONFH bone collapse. Additionally, this preclinical investigation in mouse models offers an avenue for prospective research on potential therapeutic interventions against human ONFH.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a elaborate hip disease characterized by collapse of femoral head and osteoarthritis. RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) plays a crucial role in a lot of biological processes within eukaryotic cells. However, the role of m6A in the regulation of ONFH remains unclear. In this study, we identified the m6A regulators in ONFH and performed subtype classification. We identified 7 significantly differentially expressed m6A regulators through the analysis of differences between ONFH and normal samples in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. A random forest algorithm was employed to monitor these regulators to assess the risk of developing ONFH. We constructed a nomogram based on these 7 regulators. The decision curve analysis suggested that patients can benefit from the nomogram model. We classified the ONFH samples into two m6A models according to these 7 regulators through consensus clustering algorithm. After that, we evaluated those two m6A patterns using principal component analysis. We assessed the scores of those two m6A patterns and their relationship with immune infiltration. We observed a higher m6A score of type A than that of type B. Finally, we performed a cross-validation of crucial m6A regulatory factors in ONFH using external datasets and femoral head bone samples. In conclusion, we believed that the m6A pattern could provide a novel diagnostic strategy and offer new insights for molecularly targeted therapy of ONFH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No large cohort study has evaluated the surgical outcomes of THA between different stages of ONFH patients. This study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes of ONFH patients who underwent THA in ARCO stage III versus IV, in terms of operative parameters, one-year hip function assessments and postoperative at least five-year complications, to inform optimized management of ONFH. METHOD From our prospectively collected database, 876 patients undergoing THA between October 2014 and April 2017 were analyzed and divided into ARCO stage III group (n = 383) and ARCO stage IV group(n = 493). Details of demographics, medical record information, adverse events and clinical scores of both groups were collected and compared. Proper univariate analysis was used for the analysis. RESULT There were no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups. Compared to ARCO stage IV patients, ARCO stage III patients showed a shorter operative time (p < 0.01), less bleeding (p < 0.01), fewer one-year readmissions (p = 0.026) and complications (p = 0.040), and significantly higher HHS (p < 0.01) one year after THA. In addition, ARCO stage IV patients seem more likely to suffer prosthesis dislocation (p = 0.031). CONCLUSION Although ARCO stage IV patients in the study cohorts appeared to suffer more one-year complications, no significant difference was observed at long-term follow-up. Enhanced clinical guidance on preventing early prosthesis dislocation may help improve the prognosis of final-stage ONFH patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In total hip arthroplasty (THA) after failed transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy (TRO) for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), deformity of the proximal femur has been reported to affect stem placement. The aims of this study were to evaluate the morphological changes in the proximal femur, muscle atrophy, and soft tissue thickening in THA after TRO and the clinical outcomes. METHODS The TRO group included 17 patients (18 hips) who underwent THA after failed TRO. The control group included 21 patients (28 hips) who underwent primary THA for ONFH. To evaluate the deformity of the proximal femur before THA, we measured the anteroposterior and mediolateral diameters of the femur on computed tomographic slices 5 mm proximal to the lesser trochanter. To evaluate muscle atrophy and soft tissue thickening, we measured the thicknesses of the psoas major, iliac, and gluteus medius muscles and the anterior capsule of the hip joint. RESULTS The ratio of the anteroposterior to mediolateral diameters of the proximal femur was significantly greater in the TRO group (p < 0.01). The thicknesses of the muscles did not differ between the two groups, whereas the anterior capsule was significantly thicker in the TRO group (p < 0.05). Varus or valgus stem alignment (> 3°) was frequent in the TRO group (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS The round shape of the proximal femur was deformed after TRO compared with primary THA for ONFH, which may have caused malposition of the stem. In addition, we should pay attention to anterior protrusion of the proximal femur and thickening of the anterior capsule.

Abstract
PURPOSE Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a severe bone disease that can progressively lead to hip dysfunction. Accurately segmenting the necrotic lesion helps in diagnosing and treating ONFH. This paper aims at enhancing deep learning models for necrosis segmentation. METHODS Necrotic lesions of ONFH are confined to the femoral head. Considering this domain knowledge, we introduce a preprocessing procedure, termed the "subtracting-adding" strategy, which explicitly incorporates this domain knowledge into the downstream deep neural network input. This strategy first removes the voxels outside the predefined volume of interest to "subtract" irrelevant information, and then it concatenates the bone mask with raw data to "add" anatomical structure information. RESULTS Each of the tested off-the-shelf networks performed better with the help of the "subtracting-adding" strategy. The dice similarity coefficients increased by 10.93%, 9.23%, 9.38% and 1.60% for FCN, HRNet, SegNet and UNet, respectively. The improvements in FCN and HRNet were statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS The "subtracting-adding" strategy enhances the performance of general-purpose networks in necrotic lesion segmentation. This strategy is compatible with various semantic segmentation networks, alleviating the need to design task-specific models.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Whether the application of MBP plus cannulated screws works for old femoral neck fractures (OFNF) is unknown. The purpose of this study is to present a case series of OFNF in young adults using calcar buttress plate and three cannulated screws with autologous iliac bone grafts. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of eleven young patients (6 males and 5 females) with femoral neck fractures who were treated with open reduction and internal fixation at a single center between 2013 and 2021. The subjects had trauma-to-surgery intervals longer than 3weeks and all were fixed with a calcar buttress plate combined with three cannulated screws, which were supplemented by autologous iliac bone grafts. RESULTS All eleven cases achieved radiological union under the surgery technique, which occurred on average at 4.46±1.29months after surgery. Complications included femoral neck shortening in all cases, heterotopic ossification in three cases, and osteonecrosis of the femoral head in two cases. One patient with osteonecrosis of the femoral head received total hip arthroplasty. In follow-ups of 24-52months, the median Harris hip score was 81.64±15.39. CONCLUSIONS The medial buttress plate in combination with three cannulated screws and iliac autograft may be a good choice for treating old femoral neck fractures in young adults. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, case series.

Abstract
Purpose The dislocation rate after total hip arthroplasty for osteonecrosis of the femoral head is higher than that after total hip arthroplasty for osteoarthritis. However, few reports have investigated the factors contributing to dislocation after total hip arthroplasty for osteonecrosis of the femoral head. The aim of this study was to assess radiological factors associated with posterior dislocation after total hip arthroplasty for osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 179 cementless total hip arthroplasties for osteonecrosis of the femoral head using a posterolateral approach between 2002 and 2020 with a minimum follow-up period of 24 months. The following radiological factors were examined for a possible association with posterior dislocation after total hip arthroplasty: cup anteversion angle, cup inclination angle, femoral offset, and stem anteversion angle. Results Posterior dislocation occurred in seven hips (3.9 %). Compared to hips without posterior dislocation, those with posterior dislocation exhibited a significantly smaller cup anteversion angle (p = 0.045) and a nonsignificantly greater decrease in femoral offset (p = 0.089). Based on receiver operating characteristic curve analyses, the cutoff values for predicting posterior dislocation were 9.9° for the cup anteversion angle and 8.1 mm for the decrease in femoral offset. Logistic regression analysis showed a significantly higher risk of posterior dislocation among hips with a cup anteversion angle less than 9.9° (odds ratio = 7.1, p = 0.022) or with a decrease in femoral offset over 8.1 mm (odds ratio = 5.0, p = 0.040). Conclusions A small cup anteversion angle and a decreased femoral offset are suggested to be associated with posterior dislocation after total hip arthroplasty in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The collapse of femoral head is a serious symptom of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), resulting in hip pain and deformity. However, it is hardly possible to reestablish the femoral head nonoperatively once the collapse happens. Predicting femoral head collapse is of great value for the prognosis of ONFH. This study aimed to develop a new method to quantify the preserved thickness of femoral head and to assess its diagnostic contribution in predicting femoral head collapse on plain radiographs. METHODS This was a single-center retrospective study. A total of 101 hips (85 patients) with ARCO stage II from January 2008 to December 2016 were included in this study. The preserved thickness was measured on standard anteroposterior (AP) and frog-leg (FL) radiographs. The anteroposterior view's preserved thickness ratio (APTR) and the frog-leg view's preserved thickness ratio (FPTR) were calculated to show the preserved thickness ratio of the femoral head anteriorly and laterally. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression was performed to determine the risk factors for collapse. Sensitivity, specificity, and cut-off values for APTR and FPTR were determined by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) analysis was applied to determine femoral head survival in ONFH patients. RESULTS The mean age of the 27 females and 58 males was 38.93 years old. The mean follow-up time was 74.62 (36-124) months in the non-collapse group and 18.66 (3-82) months in the collapse group. Femoral head collapse was observed in 62 hips during the follow-up period. Logistic regression analysis and ROC results showed that APTR <24.79% and FPTR <10.62% were significantly correlated with femoral head collapse. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve suggested that the overall survival rate of APTR ≥24.79% was 68.2% at 5 and 10 years and FPTR ≥10.62% was 71.63% at 5 and 10 years. At the last follow-up, 26 hips had collapse on the anterior side of the femoral head, 12 hips occurred on the lateral side, and 24 hips happened to collapse on both anterior and lateral sides. CONCLUSION Femoral head collapse predominantly occurred anteriorly rather than laterally in ONFH patients. The measurements of APTR and FPTR have noticeable implications for the prediction of femoral head collapse, and contribute to the selection of treatment options for ONFH patients with types B and C1 according to the JIC classification.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate classification can facilitate the selection of appropriate interventions to delay the progression of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). This study aimed to perform the classification of ONFH through a deep learning approach. METHODS We retrospectively sampled 1,806 midcoronal magnetic resonance images (MRIs) of 1,337 hips from 4 institutions. Of these, 1,472 midcoronal MRIs of 1,155 hips were divided into training, validation, and test datasets with a ratio of 7:1:2 to develop a convolutional neural network model (CNN). An additional 334 midcoronal MRIs of 182 hips were used to perform external validation. The predictive performance of the CNN and the review panel was also compared. RESULTS A multiclass CNN model was successfully developed. In internal validation, the overall accuracy of the CNN for predicting the severity of ONFH based on the Japanese Investigation Committee classification was 87.8%. The macroaverage values of area under the curve (AUC), precision, recall, and F-value were 0.90, 84.8, 84.8, and 84.6%, respectively. In external validation, the overall accuracy of the CNN was 83.8%. The macroaverage values of area under the curve, precision, recall, and F-value were 0.87, 79.5, 80.5, and 79.9%, respectively. In a human-machine comparison study, the CNN outperformed or was comparable to that of the deputy chief orthopaedic surgeons. CONCLUSION The CNN is feasible and robust for classifying ONFH and correctly locating the necrotic area. These findings suggest that classifying ONFH using deep learning with high accuracy and generalizability may aid in predicting femoral head collapse and clinical decision-making.

Abstract
The study was aimed to investigate microarchitecture of osteochondral junction in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). We hypothesis that there were microarchitecture alternations in osteochondral junction and regional differences between the necrotic region (NR) and adjacent non-necrotic region(ANR) in patients with ONFH. Femoral heads with ONFH or femoral neck fracture were included in ONFH group (n = 11) and control group (n = 11). Cylindrical specimens were drilled on the NR/ANR of femoral heads in ONFH group and matched positions in control group (CO.NR/ CO.ANR). Histology, micro-CT, and scanning electron microscope were used to investigate microarchitecture of osteochondral junction. Layered analysis of subchondral bone plate was underwent. Mankin scores on NR were higher than that on ANR or CO.NR, respectively (P < 0.001, P < 0.001). Calcified cartilage zone on the NR and ANR was thinner than that on the CO.NR and CO.ANR, respectively (P = 0.002, P = 0.002). Tidemark roughness on the NR was larger than that on the ANR (P = 0.002). Subchondral bone plate of NR and ANR was thicker than that on the CON.NR and CON.ANR, respectively (P = 0.002, P = 0.009). Bone volume fraction of subchondral bone plate on the NR was significantly decreasing compared to ANR and CON.NR, respectively (P = 0.015, P = 0.002). Subchondral bone plate on the NR had larger area percentages and more numbers of micropores than ANR and CON.NR (P = 0.002/0.002, P = 0.002/0.002). Layered analysis showed that bone mass loss and hypomineralization were mainly on the cartilage side of subchondral bone plate in ONFH. There were microarchitecture alternations of osteochondral junction in ONFH, including thinned calcified cartilage zone, thickened subchondral bone plate, decreased bone mass, altered micropores, and hypomineralization of subchondral bone plate. Regional differences in microarchitecture of osteochondral junction were found between necrotic regions and adjacent non-necrotic regions. Subchondral bone plate in ONFH had uneven distribution of bone volume fraction and bone mineral density, which might aggravate cartilage degeneration by affecting the transmission of mechanical stresses.

Abstract
Objective To summarize the research progress on the role of macrophage-mediated osteoimmune in osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) and its mechanisms. Methods Recent studies on the role and mechanism of macrophage-mediated osteoimmune in ONFH at home and abroad were extensively reviewed. The classification and function of macrophages were summarized, the osteoimmune regulation of macrophages on chronic inflammation in ONFH was summarized, and the pathophysiological mechanism of osteonecrosis was expounded from the perspective of osteoimmune, which provided new ideas for the treatment of ONFH. Results Macrophages are important immune cells involved in inflammatory response, which can differentiate into classically activated type (M1) and alternatively activated type (M2), and play specific functions to participate in and regulate the physiological and pathological processes of the body. Studies have shown that bone immune imbalance mediated by macrophages can cause local chronic inflammation and lead to the occurrence and development of ONFH. Therefore, regulating macrophage polarization is a potential ONFH treatment strategy. In chronic inflammatory microenvironment, inhibiting macrophage polarization to M1 can promote local inflammatory dissipation and effectively delay the progression of ONFH; regulating macrophage polarization to M2 can build a local osteoimmune microenvironment conducive to bone repair, which is helpful to necrotic tissue regeneration and repair to a certain extent. Conclusion At present, it has been confirmed that macrophage-mediated chronic inflammatory immune microenvironment is an important mechanism for the occurrence and development of ONFH. It is necessary to study the subtypes of immune cells in ONFH, the interaction between immune cells and macrophages, and the interaction between various immune cells and macrophages, which is beneficial to the development of potential therapeutic methods for ONFH.

Abstract
Glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is the most prevalent form of secondary osteonecrosis affecting the femoral head. Glucocorticoids can cause damage to both vascular endothelial cells and osteoblasts. Previous studies have demonstrated that silicon can improve the resistance of vascular endothelial cells to oxidative stress and positively impact bone health. However, the impact of silicon on SONFH has yet to be investigated. We examined the influence of ortho-silicic acid (OSA, Si(OH)4) on the apoptosis and proliferation of vascular endothelial cells after glucocorticoid induction. Additionally, we evaluated the expression of apoptosis-related genes such as cleaved-caspase-3, Bcl-2 and Bax. The impact of glucocorticoids and OSA on the function of vascular endothelial cells was evaluated through wound healing, transwell and angiogenesis assays. Osteogenic function was subsequently evaluated through alizarin red staining, alkaline phosphatase staining and expression levels of osteogenic genes like RUNX2 and ALP. Moreover, we investigated the potential role of OSA in vivo using the SONFH animal model. At concentrations below 100 μM, OSA exhibits no toxicity on vascular endothelial cells and effectively reverses glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis in these cells. OSA increases the resilience of vascular endothelial cells against oxidative stress and enhances osteoblast differentiation. Our study revealed that glucocorticoids activate endoplasmic reticulum stress, a process that mediates the apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells. OSA ameliorated the endoplasmic reticulum stress associated with glucocorticoids through the increased expression of p-Akt levels. In vivo, OSA treatment effectively improved SONFH by enhancing vascular endothelial cell function and promoting osteogenic differentiation. OSA counteracted the adverse effects of glucocorticoids both in vitro and in vivo, demonstrating a beneficial therapeutic effect on SONFH.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study is aimed to delve into the crucial proteins associated with hormonal osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) and its intra-articular lesions through data-independent acquisition (DIA) proteomics and bioinformatics analysis. METHODS We randomly selected samples from eligible ONFH patients and collected samples from the necrotic area of the femoral head and load-bearing cartilage. The control group comprised specimens from the same location in patients with femoral neck fractures. With DIA proteomics, we quantitatively and qualitatively tested both groups and analyzed the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) between groups. Additionally, we enriched the analysis of DEP functions using gene ontology terms and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways and verified the key proteins in ONFH through Western blot. RESULTS Proteomics experiment uncovered 937 common DEPs (422 upregulated and 515 downregulated) between the two groups. These DEPs mainly participate in biological processes such as hidden attributes, catalytic activity, molecular function regulators, and structural molecule activity, and in pathways such as starch and sucrose metabolism, ECM-receptor interaction, PI3K-Akt signaling, complement and coagulation cascades, IL-17 signaling, phagosome, transcriptional misregulation in cancers, and focal adhesion. Through protein-protein interaction network target gene analysis and Western blot validation, we identified C3, MMP9, APOE, MPO, LCN2, ELANE, HPX, LTF, and THBS1 as key proteins in ONFH. CONCLUSIONS With DIA proteomics and bioinformatics analysis, this study reveals the molecular mechanisms of intra-articular lesions in ONFH. A correlation in the necrotic area and load-bearing cartilage of ONFH at ARCO stages IIIB-IV as well as potential key regulatory proteins was identified. These findings will help more deeply understand the pathogenesis of ONFH and may provide important clues for seeking more effective treatment strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the natural course of osteonecrosis of the femoral head, sclerotic changes at the boundary of necrotic lesion gradually occur until femoral head collapse. This study aims to examine the effects of bone mineral density at the lateral boundary of necrotic lesion on a subsequent femoral head collapse. METHODS We developed patient-specific finite element models of 9 hips with subsequent collapse and 10 hips without subsequent collapse. Cubic regions of interest were selected at both subchondral areas of the lateral boundary and the adjacent necrotic lesion. Bone mineral density values of the regions of interest were quantitatively measured, and a ratio of bone mineral density values (lateral boundary/necrotic lesion) was calculated. Stress values at the lateral boundary were also evaluated. FINDINGS The ratio of bone mineral density values was significantly higher in hips with subsequent collapse than that without subsequent collapse (p = 0.0016). The median equivalent stress and shear stress were significantly higher in hips with subsequent collapse than that without subsequent collapse (p = 0.0071, and p = 0.0143, respectively). The ratio of bone mineral density values showed a promising value in predicting the occurrence of subsequent femoral head collapse (AUC = 0.97). INTERPRETATION Our results indicated that bone mineral density value at the lateral boundary of necrotic lesion may be associated with the occurrence of subsequent femoral head collapse in pre-collapse stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to explore the effect of a nanomaterial-based miR-320a inhibitor sustained release system in trauma-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (TIONFH). METHODS The miR-320a inhibitor-loaded polyethylene glycol (PEG)- Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)- Poly-L-lysine (PLL) nanoparticles were constructed using the double emulsion method. The TIONFH rabbit model was established to observe the effects of miR-320a inhibitor nanoparticles in vivo. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and microcomputed tomography scanning were used for bone morphology analysis. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), derived from TIONFH rabbits, were used for in vitro experiments. Cell viability was determined using the MTT assay. RESULTS High expression of miR-320a inhibited the osteogenic differentiation capacity of BMSCs in vitro by inhibiting the expression of the osteoblastic differentiation markers ALP and RUNX2. MiR-320a inhibitor-loaded PEG-PLGA-PLL nanoparticles were constructed with a mean loading efficiency of 1.414 ± 0.160%, and a mean encapsulation efficiency of 93.45 ± 1.24%, which released 50% of the loaded miR-320a inhibitor at day 12 and 80% on day 18. Then, inhibitor release entered the plateau. After treatment with the miR-320a inhibitor nanoparticle, the empty lacunae were decreased in the femoral head tissue of TIONFH rabbits, and the osteoblast surface/bone surface (Ob.S/BS), osteoblast number/bone perimeter (Ob.N/B.Pm), bone volume fraction, and bone mineral density increased. Additionally, the expression of osteogenic markers RUNX2 and ALP was significantly elevated in the TIONFH rabbit model. CONCLUSION The miR-320a inhibitor-loaded PEG-PLGA-PLL nanoparticle sustained drug release system significantly contributed to bone regeneration in the TIONFH rabbit model, which might be a promising strategy for the treatment of TIONFH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this retrospective cohort study was to determine the relationship between sclerosis rim volume ratio (SVR) and the progression of femoral head collapse after non-vascularized fibular grafting (NVFG) surgery in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), investigating risk factors associated with femoral head collapse progression and establishing a predictive model to enhance clinical decision-making. METHODS ONFH patients who underwent NVFG between January 2008 and December 2021 were analyzed retrospectively to assess the risk of post-operative collapse progression (collapse >2 mm). A logistic regression model was used to evaluate the independent risk factors associated with collapse progression, including age, sex, etiology, affected side, Japanese Investigation Committee classification (JIC), and the sclerosis rim volume ratio (SVR). SVR values was collected from three weight-bearing columns, namely SVR1, SVR2, and SVR3, respectively. RESULTS 57 patients with 64 hips who had undergone NVFG and were followed up for at least one year were included. During the follow-up, collapse>2 mm occurred in 30 hips (46.88%). Multivariable analysis revealed that JIC (p =0.037) and SVR1 (p = 0.04) were independent risk factors for collapse progression after NVFG. The results of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis indicated that the aforementioned indices provided a satisfactory prediction of early femoral head collapse progression in ONFH patients after NVFG. The regression model using the above two indicators as a composite index showed satisfactory performance in predicting early postoperative femoral head collapse progression, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 84.6%. CONCLUSIONS SVR is significant predictor of post-operative collapse progression following NVFG, and the composite index provides an optimal predictive value for femoral head collapse progression after surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a disease with a high disability rate, and genetic factors are closely related to its pathogenesis. This study aimed to investigate the possible correlation between ESR1 and APOE gene polymorphisms and the risk of ONFH. METHODS In this case-control study, the potential association between three genetic variants (rs2982573 C < T, rs10872678 C < T, and rs9322332 A < C) of the ESR1 gene and two genetic variants (rs7259620 A < G and rs769446 C < T) of the APOE gene with the risk of ONFH was investigated. Correlations between gene polymorphisms and ONFH risk were assessed using logistic regression analysis, with calculation of odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS The overall analysis demonstrated that rs9322332 in the ESR1 gene exhibited a correlation with a decreased risk of ONFH under the homozygous (AA vs.CC: OR = 0.69, 95% CI [0.53-0.90], p = 0.006), dominant (CA + AA vs. CC: OR = 0.70, 95% CI [0.54-0.90], p = 0.006), and additive (OR = 0.79, 95% CI [0.66-0.95], p = 0.013) models. The stratification analysis revealed that rs9322332 was linked to a lower risk of ONFH in subgroups characterized by individuals aged over 51 years and non-smokers. Nevertheless, there were no notable correlations found between ESR1 rs2982573 and rs10872678, as well as APOE rs7259620 and rs769446, with the risk of ONFH. CONCLUSION ESR1-rs9322332 is closely linked to a decreased risk of ONFH, thereby enhancing our understanding of the relationship between gene polymorphisms and ONFH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a serious condition that causes bone tissue death, femoral head collapse, and hip joint destruction. Early intervention through hip-preserving treatment is crucial to slow down disease progression, preserve hip joint function, and improve the quality of life of patients. We analyzed the knowledge map, research gaps, and future research directions in the field of hip-preserving treatment for early ONFH. METHODS All publications related to hip-preserving treatment for early ONFH published between 2010 and 2023 were identified from the Web of Science Core Collection and analyzed using VOSviewer 1.6.19, CiteSpace 6.2.R2, and Scimago Graphica 1.0.35. RESULTS In total, 234 articles were analyzed. The results showed an exponential growth trend in the number of publications related to hip-preserving treatment for early ONFH in the past decade. China and the USA were the main contributors. International Orthopaedics published the most papers in this field, whereas Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume had the highest average citation count per article. Several stable research topics were noted in this field, including core decompression (CD), osteotomy, bone transplantation in hip-preserving surgery, and cell therapy, which have become research hotspots in hip-preserving treatment. CONCLUSIONS Hip-preserving treatment for early ONFH has received increasing attention, and research in this field is expected to grow. Stable research topics include core decompression (CD), osteotomy, bone transplantation, and cell therapy. Future research is predicted to focus on cell therapy and combination therapy, resulting in an increasing number of publications on hip-preserving treatment for early ONFH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Leg length discrepancy (LLD) is one of the troublesome complications of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Previously, several risk factors have been suggested, but they were subjected to their inherent limitations. By controlling confounding variables, we hypothesized that known risk factors be re-evaluated and novel ones be discovered. This study aimed to analyze the independent risk factors for LLD after primary THA in patients with non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patients with non-traumatic ONFH who underwent unilateral THA between 2014 and 2021. All patients were operated by one senior surgeon using a single implant. Demographic data, surgical parameters, and radiological findings (pre-operative LLD, Dorr classification, and femoral neck resection) were analyzed to identify the risk factors of ≥ 5 mm post-operative LLD based on radiological measurement and to calculate odds ratios by logistic regression analysis. Post hoc power analysis demonstrated that the number of analyzed patients was sufficient with 80% power. RESULTS One hundred and eighty-six patients were analyzed, including 96 females, with a mean age of 58.8 years at the time of initial THA. The average post-operative LLD was 1.2 ± 2.9 mm in the control group and 9.7 ± 3.2 mm in the LLD group, respectively. The LLD group tended to have minimal pre-operative LLD than the control group (-3.2 ± 5.1 mm vs. -7.9 ± 5.8 mm p = 2.38 × 10- 8). No significant difference was found between the groups in age, gender, body mass index, femoral cortical index, and implant size. CONCLUSION Mild pre-operative LLD is associated with an increased risk of post-operative LLD after primary THA in patients with ONFH. Thus, surgeons should recognize pre-operative LLD to achieve an optimal outcome and must inform patients about the risk of developing LLD.

Abstract
Robot-assisted total hip arthroplasty (R-THA) is increasingly being performed throughout the world. The invasiveness of this operation is unknown. We retrospectively reviewed the cohort of consecutive osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) patients who received primary R-THA or manual THA (M-THA) from January 2020 to January 2022 in our institution. One experienced surgeon performed all procedures. We calculated the propensity score to match similar patients in different groups by multivariate logistic regression analysis for each patient. We included confounders consisting of age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and operation time. Preoperative serum markers and Harris hip scores (HHS), postoperative serum markers at first day and third day, complications rate, postoperative HHS and Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) at 6 months after surgery of different cohorts were compared. We analyzed 218 ONFH patients treated with THA (98 R-THA patients, and 120 M-THA patients). After propensity score matching, we generated cohorts of 95 patients in R-THA and M-THA groups. We found no significant difference in preoperative serum markers and HHS. In the R-THA cohort, the PLT count was significantly lower on the postoperative day 1 (192.36 ± 41.72 × 109/L Vs 210.47 ± 72.85 × 109/L, p < 0.05). The Hb level was significantly lower on the postoperative third day in the R-THA cohort (98.52 ± 12.99 g/L Vs 104.74 ± 13.15 g/L, p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the other serum markers between the cohorts on postoperative day 1 and 3 (p > 0.05). The FJS was significantly higher in the R-THA than M-THA group (p = 0.01). There was no significant difference in the postoperative HHS or complication rate between the groups (p > 0.05). The R-THA is not associated with a serious invasiveness compared to M-THA. Patients who underwent R-THA had a better early function compared to those who underwent M-THA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) have been used clinically for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). The study elucidated that ESWT, ADSCs, and combination therapy modulated pro-inflammatory cytokines in the articular cartilage and subchondral bone of early rat ONFH. METHODS ESWT and ADSCs were prepared and isolated for treatment. Micro-CT, pathological analysis, and immunohistochemistry were performed and analysed. RESULTS After treatments, subchondral bone of ONFH was improved in trabecular bone volume (BV/TV) (p < 0.001), thickness (Tb.Th) (p < 0.01 and 0.001), and separation (Tb.Sp) (p < 0.001) and bone mineral density (BMD) (p < 0.001) using micro-CT analysis. The articular cartilage was protected and decreased apoptosis markers after all the treatments. The expression of IL33 (p < 0.001), IL5 (p < 0.001), IL6 (p < 0.001), and IL17A (p < 0.01) was significantly decreased in the ESWT, ADSCs, and Combination groups as compared with ONFH group. The IL33 receptor ST2 was significantly increased after treatment (p < 0.001) as compared with ONFH group. The Combination group (p < 0.01) decreased the expression of IL6 better than the ESWT and ADSCs groups. CONCLUSION ESWT, ADSCs and combination therapy significantly protected articular cartilage and subchondral bone of early rat ONFH by modulating the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines including, IL33 and its receptor ST2, IL5, IL6, and IL17A.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the therapeutic effect of multiple small diameter drilling combined with extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) under C-arm X-raylocalization in patients with early osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). METHODS A total of 106 cases of early ONFH patients admitted from May 2015 to May 2017 were retrospectively selected as the study subjects. According to different treatment methods, the patients were divided into observation group and control group, 53 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with multiple small-diameter drilling combined with ESWT under C-arm positioning in the observation group, including 41 males and 12 females with an age of (45.85±6.01) years old (22 to 70 years old);and the control group was treated with ESWT, including 34 males and 19 females with an age of (45.12±5.83) years old(20 to 68 years old) in the control group. The modified Harris hip scores(mHHS), visual analog scale(VAS), hip flexion range, hip abduction and adduction range, ONFH area ratio and clinical efficacy were compared between twe groups before and after treatment. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw a survival curve to compare the femoral head survival rate between two groups during the 3-year follow-up period after treatment. RESULTS There were no complications such as poor wound healing and infection. All of 106 patients were followed up for 28 to 36 months with an average of (31.06±4.28) months. MHHS score, hip flexion range and hip abduction and adduction range in the observation group were increased from (63.85±5.42) scores, (23.79±2.21) °, (32.40±4.19) ° before treatment to (85.51±5.69) scores, (34.65±2.73)°, (43.32±5.71)° at 2 years after treatment, respectively(P<0.05). The above indicators in the control group increased from (64.73±5.64)°, (23.82±2.18)°, (32.45±4.13)° before treatment to (81.65±5.48) scores, (32.79±2.87)°, (39.75±5.68)°at two years after treatment, respectively(P<0.05). VAS score and ONFH area ratio in the observation group decreased from (5.76±1.41) scores and (35.07±4.96)% before treatment to (3.39±1.02) scores and (22.04±3.23)% at 2 years after treatment, respectively(P<0.05). The above indicatiors in control group decreased from (5.73±1.45) scores and (35.24±5.18)% before treatment to (4.43±1.21) scores and (28.32±3.76)% at 2 years after treatment, respectively(P<0.05), and the improvement in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05). At 3 years after treatment, the femoral head survival rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Multiple small diameter drilling combined with ESWT under C-arm positioning can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of patients with early ONFH, relieve pain and improve clinical efficacy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy of treating patients with HIV-positive osteonecrosis of the femoral head using drilled decompression autologous bone marrow and allogeneic bone grafting. METHODS 40 patients (44 hips) with early osteonecrosis of the femoral head treated by drilling decompression autologous bone marrow and allogeneic bone grafting since October 2015 were retrospectively analyzed, among which 20 patients (24 hips) were HIV-positive patients with early osteonecrosis of the femoral head, 16 males and 4 females, age 22-43 years, average 39.6 ± 10.18 years, and 20 patients (20 hips) in the same period HIV-negative early osteonecrosis of the femoral head patients, 13 males and 7 females, aged 48-78 years, mean 63.50 ± 7.94 years were negative controls. General information including ARCO stage, Harris score, VAS score, hematological indexes including CD4+ T lymphocyte count, and HIV viral load was recorded for all patients before surgery. All patients were operated on by drilling and decompression of the necrotic area, harvesting autologous iliac bone marrow with allogeneic bone, and bone grafting through the decompression channel. The patients were followed up regularly at 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery and annually thereafter, and the repair of the necrotic femoral head was observed by reviewing the frontal and lateral X-ray, CT or MRI of the hip joint, and the complications and functional recovery of the hip joint was counted and compared between the two groups. RESULTS All patients were followed up, and the ARCO stages in the HIV-positive group were stage I 2 hips, stage IIA 6 hips, stage IIB 8 hips, stage IIC 6 hips, and stage III 2 hips, with a follow-up time of 12 to 60 months and a mean of 24.6 months. In the negative control group, there were 3 hips in ARCO stage I, 7 hips in stage IIA, 5 hips in stage IIB, 3 hips in stage IIC, and 2 hips in stage III, and the follow-up time ranged from 13 to 62 months, with an average of 24.8 months. The Harris score and VAS score of the hip in both groups improved significantly at 6 months postoperatively compared with those before surgery (P < 0.001). The difference between the Harris score of the hip in the positive group at 24 months postoperatively compared with that at 6 months postoperatively was statistically significant, but the VAS score at 24 months postoperatively compared with that at 6 months postoperatively was not statistically significant. In the negative group, there was no statistically significant difference in the Harris score and VAS score of the hip at 24 months postoperatively compared with those at 6 months postoperatively. In the positive group, there was a trend of continuous increase in hip BMD from the beginning of the postoperative period (P < 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between the negative group and the positive group at the 24 months postoperatively follow-up except for the Harris score, which was statistically significant (P < 0.001), and the VAS score, which was statistically insignificant. At the 24 months postoperatively follow-up, patients in both groups had good recovery of hip function, and no complications such as vascular and nerve injury and fracture occurred during the perioperative period and follow-up period, and no complications related to incisional infection and pulmonary infection occurred during hospitalization. CONCLUSION The treatment of early HIV-positive osteonecrosis of the femoral head patients with autologous bone marrow and allogeneic bone grafting by drilling and decompression to remove the tissue in the necrotic area of the femoral head can effectively stop the process of osteonecrosis of the femoral head and promoting femoral head repair in HIV-positive patients is a safe and effective method for treating HIV-positive patients with early osteonecrosis of the femoral head, and can effectively delay or postpone total hip replacement in patients.

Abstract
Objective To establish finite element models of different preserved angles of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) for the biomechanical analysis, and to provide mechanical evidence for predicting the risk of ONFH collapse with anterior preserved angle (APA) and lateral preserved angle (LPA). Methods A healthy adult was selected as the study object, and the CT data of the left femoral head was acquired and imported into Mimics 21.0 software to reconstruct a complete proximal femur model and construct 3 models of necrotic area with equal volume and different morphology, all models were imported into Solidworks 2022 software to construct 21 finite element models of ONFH with LPA of 45°, 50°, 55°, 60°, 65°, 70°, and 75° when APA was 45°, respectively, and 21 finite element models of ONFH with APA of 45°, 50°, 55°, 60°, 65°, 70°, 75° when LPA was 45°, respectively. According to the physiological load condition of the femoral head, the distal femur was completely fixed, and a force with an angle of 25°, downward direction, and a magnitude of 3.5 times the subject's body mass was applied to the weight-bearing area of the femoral head surface. The maximum Von Mises stress of the surface of the femoral head and the necrotic area and the maximum displacement of the weight-bearing area of the femoral head were calculated and observed by Abaqus 2021 software. Results The finite element models of ONFH were basically consistent with biomechanics of ONFH. Under the same loading condition, there was stress concentration around the necrotic area in the 42 ONFH models with different preserved angles composed of 3 necrotic areas with equal volume and different morphology. When APA was 60°, the maximum Von Mises stress of the surface of the femoral head and the necrotic area and the maximum displacement of the weight-bearing area of the femoral head of the ONFH models with LPA<60° were significantly higher than those of the models with LPA≥60° ( P<0.05); there was no significant difference in each index among the ONFH models with LPA≥60° ( P>0.05). When LPA was 60°, each index of the ONFH models with APA<60° were significantly higher than those of the models with APA≥60° ( P<0.05); there was no significant difference in each index among the ONFH models with APA≥60° ( P>0.05). Conclusion From the perspective of biomechanics, when a preserved angle of ONFH is less than its critical value, the stress concentration phenomenon in the femoral head is more pronounced, suggesting that the necrotic femoral head may have a higher risk of collapse in this state.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The primary objectives of this study were to focus on one - year unplanned readmissions after THA in ONFH patients and to investigate rates, causes, and independent risk factors. METHODS Between October 2014 and April 2019, eligible patients undergoing THA were enrolled and divided into unplanned readmission within one year and no readmission in this study. All unplanned readmissions within 1 year of discharge were reviewed for causes and the rate of unplanned readmissions was calculated. Demographic information, ONFH characteristics, and treatment-related variables of both groups were compared and analysed. RESULTS Finally, 41 out of 876 patients experienced unplanned readmission. The readmission rate was 1.83% in 30 days 2.63% in 90 days, and 4.68% in 1 year. Prosthesis dislocation was always the most common cause at all time points studied within a year. The final logistic regression model revealed that higher risks of unplanned readmission were associated with age > 60 years (P = 0.001), urban residence (P = 0.001), ARCO stage IV (P = 0.025), and smoking (P = 0.033). CONCLUSIONS We recommend the introduction of a strict smoking cessation program prior to surgery and the development of comprehensive management strategies, especially for the elderly and end-stage ONFH patients, and pay more attention to preventing prosthesis dislocation in the early days after surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE), the femoral head slides in an anterosuperior direction along the growth plate. The femoral head remains in the acetabulum. The pathogenesis of SCFE is multifactorial. An important predisposing factor is obesity. PROBLEM Epiphysiolysis can compromise the blood supply to the epiphysis and osteonecrosis of the femoral head may result. DIAGNOSTICS AND PROGNOSIS Conventional radiography represents the first diagnostic step. The long-term prognosis of the disease depends on the residual deformity of the femoral head and in the worst case may result in early osteoarthritis of the hip joint.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study evaluated the effectiveness of high-degree posterior rotational osteotomy for teenagers with extensively collapsed femoral head osteonecrosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed 40 hips in 35 patients with severely collapsed femoral head osteonecrosis treated by this procedure with a mean follow-up period of 9.7 years (range 5-25 years). Thirteen hips had a history of steroid administration. Nine had slipped capital femoral epiphysis. Nine had femoral neck fracture. Two had traumatic dislocation and fracture. Seven had no apparent risk factors. The mean age of the patients (18 women and 17 men) was 14.8 years. All femoral heads were extensively collapsed below the acetabular roof, and 20 hips showed preoperative joint space narrowing (ARCO stage 4). Lateral radiographs of the femoral head revealed extensive lesions from the posterior to anterior portion. The mean degree of posterior rotation was 118° with intentional varus positioning [mean: 19° (range 10-30)]. The pre- and postoperative extent of the viable area of the femoral head was assessed using conventional anteroposterior radiographs and 45-degree flexion radiography. Further collapse, joint space narrowing, femoral head morphology, and congruency with the acetabulum based on the Stulberg classification were assessed using conventional anteroposterior radiographs. The clinical assessment was conducted using the Merle d'Aubigné hip scores at the last follow-up. RESULTS The viable area of the femoral head on the loaded portion was seen during a short period after operations. The necrotic lesions were gradually improved postoperatively. The mean extent of viable bone below the acetabular roof was 48% at less than 6 months after surgery and 92% at the final follow-up. The mean extent on 45° flexion radiography was 54% at less than 6 months after surgery and 89% at the final follow-up. Further collapse was prevented in 38 hips (95%). In 19 of 20 hips with preoperative narrowing of the joint space, the joint space was first improved, but narrowing progressively observed in 9 of 40 hips at the final follow-up. Thirty-four hips had excellent or good clinical outcomes, whereas 6 had fair or poor outcomes. CONCLUSIONS We concluded that this procedure is effective at delaying the progression of degeneration if adequate area of viable bone can be moved under the loaded portion of the acetabulum in teenagers with severe femoral head osteonecrosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hollow screw internal fixation is commonly used in clinical treatment of impacted femoral neck fractures. Previous studies have demonstrated a correlation between the preoperative posterior tilt angle of the femoral head and failure of internal fixation, but there are fewer studies related to the occurrence of postoperative femoral head necrosis and the posterior tilt angle. METHODS To examine the relationship between three-dimensional posterior tilt angle measurements in affected femoral neck fractures and postoperative osteonecrosis of the femoral head and related risk variables. We retrospectively examined 130 Yantaishan Hospital patients with affected femoral neck fractures from 2019 to 2022. Three-dimensional reconstruction technology assessed the posterior tilt angle of the femoral head and separated patients into necrosis and non-necrosis groups based on postoperative femoral head necrosis. Univariate analysis compared clinical data between groups, and multivariate logistic regression analyzed risk variables for femoral head necrosis. Postoperative femoral head necrosis was predicted by posterior tilt angle using Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS Out of 130 patients who were followed up for 16-68 months postoperatively, 20 developed femoral head necrosis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the posterior tilt angle and reduction quality level C were risk factors for the occurrence of femoral head necrosis. The ROC curve analysis showed that the three-dimensional measurement of the posterior tilt angle had predictive value for postoperative femoral head necrosis, with a cut-off value of 20.6°. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that, for patients with impacted femoral neck fractures, the posterior tilt angle and reduction quality level C are risk factors for femoral head necrosis following closed reduction and internal fixation surgery. Fracture patients with a posterior tilt angle ≥ 20.6°are more likely to experience postoperative femoral head necrosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was aimed to use a digital design of 3D-printing technology to create a surgical navigation template. At the same time, biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) was applied to treat osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in animal models, based on accurate positioning of necrotic lesions in the navigation templates and observation of its therapeutic effect. METHODS Fifteen healthy adult male and female beagle dogs weighing 20 + 2 kg were randomly divided into three groups (n = 5) after establishing a model of ONFH using the liquid nitrogen freezing method. Each model underwent necrotic lesion creation and BPC implantations on one side of the femoral head and only necrotic lesion creation on the other side of the femoral head. Each group underwent CT examination, gross observation, histological examination and immunohistochemical staining at 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 18 weeks postoperatively. RESULTS At weeks 6, 12, and 18, CT and gross examination showed that the necrotic area in the experimental group was basically intact and had been completely raised by BCP material. In the control group, there were signs of bone repair in the femoral head, but there were still large bone defects and cavities. At week 18, extensive collapse of the cartilage surface was observed. Through histological examination, in the experimental group at 12 and 18 weeks, a large number of new and reconstructed bone trabeculae containing a large amount of collagen fibres were observed (P < 0.05), while in the control group, there was extensive necrosis of the bone trabeculae without cellular structural areas. Immunohistochemical examination observation: A large number of CD31-positive cells were observed in the experimental group at 6 weeks, gradually decreasing at 12 and 18 weeks (P < 0.05), while a small number of CD31-positive cells were observed in the control group at 18 weeks. CONCLUSION The 3D-printed navigation template can accurately locate ONFH lesions. Implantation of BCP material can effectively play a supporting role, prevent the collapse of the loading surface, and induce bone formation and angiogenesis to some extent.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hemi-resurfacing arthroplasty (Hemi) and metal-on-metal hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HR) were proposed as alternatives to conventional total hip arthroplasty (THA) for patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Long-term results were evaluated. METHODS Twenty-three hips with ONFH were treated, using Hemi in 12 and HR in 11. Mean follow-up was 15 years in the Hemi group and 10 years in the HR group. Long-term outcomes were reviewed retrospectively. RESULTS In the Hemi group, 8 hips showed acetabular protrusion and were revised to THA. One of the 8 hips showed femoral loosening. In the HR group, pseudotumor was detected in 4 hips (36%), and 1 hip was revised due to symptomatic pseudotumor. No evidence of any femoral or acetabular loosening was seen in the HR group. Ten-year survival rates were 64.2% and 90.9% in the Hemi and HR groups, respectively. Survival rate in the Hemi group dropped to 22.9% at 15 years. CONCLUSIONS Long-term results of Hemi for patients with ONFH were very poor, and Hemi should not continue to be used. Although HR had a concern of pseudotumor, it could offer attractive indications for 10 years.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to develop a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) for detecting early osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) from various hip pathologies and evaluate the feasibility of its application. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed and annotated hip magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of ONFH patients from four participated institutions and constructed a multi-centre dataset to develop the DCNN system. The diagnostic performance of the DCNN in the internal and external test datasets was calculated, including area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, and gradient-weighted class activation mapping (Grad-CAM) technique was used to visualize its decision-making process. In addition, a human-machine comparison trial was performed. RESULTS Overall, 11,730 hip MRI segments from 794 participants were used to develop and optimize the DCNN system. The AUROC, accuracy, and precision of the DCNN in internal test dataset were 0.97 (95% CI, 0.93-1.00), 96.6% (95% CI: 93.0-100%), and 97.6% (95% CI: 94.6-100%), and in external test dataset, they were 0.95 (95% CI, 0.91- 0.99), 95.2% (95% CI, 91.1-99.4%), and 95.7% (95% CI, 91.7-99.7%). Compared with attending orthopaedic surgeons, the DCNN showed superior diagnostic performance. The Grad-CAM demonstrated that the DCNN placed focus on the necrotic region. CONCLUSION Compared with clinician-led diagnoses, the developed DCNN system is more accurate in diagnosing early ONFH, avoiding empirical dependence and inter-reader variability. Our findings support the integration of deep learning systems into real clinical settings to assist orthopaedic surgeons in diagnosing early ONFH.

Abstract
With the in-depth understanding of osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH), and more and more patients seeking medical treatment in the early stage of the disease, surgical treatment of femoral head necrosis alone is no longer sufficient for the current treatment of patients' demand, how to rationally and effectively apply drugs to strengthen the early prevention and treatment of femoral head necrosis and delay the progression of disease is becoming more and more important. This article combines the latest expert consensus and evidence-based medical evidence on the principles of ONFH diagnosis and treatment in Chinese and Western medicine at home and abroad, combined with domestic actual clinical application experience, and is organized by experts from Association Related to Circulation Osseous Chinese Microcirculation Society (CSM-ARCO) to write this consensus, focusing on the types of ONFH drugs, the characteristics, safety, rationality and basic principles of drug use provide reference opinions for the safe, reasonable, standardized and effective drug use of medical institutions at all levels. This consensus is only an expert guideline based on literature and clinical experience, not as a requirement for mandatory implementation, let alone as a legal basis. The clinical practice could be tailored to the actual local conditions to develop appropriate prevention and treatment measures for patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an effective treatment for advanced osteonecrosis of the femoral head, which can significantly relieve pain and improve patients' quality of life. Robotic-assisted THA enhances the accuracy and stability of THA surgery and achieves better clinical outcomes than manual THA. CASE SUMMARY We report the clinical outcomes of robotic-assisted THA and manual THA in the same patient with osteonecrosis of the femoral head. A 49-year-old male patient attended our hospital due to more than 3 years of pain in both hip joints. The left hip was treated with robotic-assisted THA. The patient underwent manual THA of the right hip 3 mo after robotic-assisted THA. We obtained postoperative radiograph parameters, Harris hip score and forgotten joint score of the patient 1 year after surgery. CONCLUSION Compared with manual THA, the patient's left hip felt better 1 year after robotic-assisted THA. Robotic-assisted THA resulted in a better Harris hip score and forgotten joint score than manual THA in the same patient with osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip joint-preserving treatment options for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) have been a research hotspot in recent years. The combination of Chinese and Western medicine has been used in clinical practice to treat early- and mid-stage ONFH. However, there is still a lack of high-quality evidence to verify the effectiveness and safety of this approach. OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of the combination of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) with Western medicine in the treatment of early- and mid-stage ONFH. METHODS Multiple electronic databases were searched to identify the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) examining the use of TCM in the treatment of ONFH. Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, eligible studies were selected, and the quality of the studies was evaluated using the risk of bias assessment tool recommended by the Cochrane system Evaluator manual 5.1.0. The meta-analysis of the included data was performed using Review Manager 5.4.1 software and Stata 17.0 software. RESULTS A total of 47 RCTs involving 3266 subjects were included in the meta-analysis. The results are observed: (1) Harris score: TCM + Western medicine versus Western medicine (SMD = 1.25, 95% Cl: 1.02 to 1.48, P < 0.00001), TCM + physiotherapy versus physiotherapy (SMD = 2.26, 95% Cl: 1.42 to 3.10, P < 0.00001), and TCM + hip preservation surgery versus hip preservation surgery (SMD = 1.28, 95% Cl: 1.03 to 1.53, P < 0.00001); (2) Visual analogue scale score: TCM + Western medicine versus Western medicine (SMD = -3.99, 95% Cl: -7.41 to -0.57, P = 0.02), TCM + physiotherapy versus physiotherapy (SMD = -0.99, 95% Cl: -1.44 to -0.54, P < 0.0001), and TCM + hip preservation surgery versus hip preservation surgery (SMD = -1.08, 95% Cl: -1.75 to -0.40, P = 0.002); (3) Imaging improvement: TCM + physiotherapy versus physiotherapy (RR = 1.42, 95% Cl: 1.15 to 1.76, P = 0.001) and TCM + hip preservation surgery versus hip preservation surgery (RR = 1.21, 95% Cl: 1.11 to 1.31, P < 0.0001); and (4) Occurrence of adverse reaction: TCM + Western medicine versus Western medicine (RR = 0.73, 95% Cl: 0.28 to 1.92, P = 0.53), TCM + physiotherapy versus physiotherapy (RR = 0.46, 95% Cl: 0.03 to 7.33, P = 0.58), and TCM + hip preservation surgery versus hip preservation surgery (RR = 1.11, 95% Cl: 0.36 to 3.45, P = 0.86). CONCLUSION TCM combined with Western medicine is an effective and safe approach for the treatment of ONFH. However, due to the low quality and quantity of the included studies, additional large-scale, high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a prevalent orthopedic condition characterized by the disruption of blood supply to the femoral head, leading to ischemia of internal tissues, subchondral bone fractures, necrosis, and eventual collapse of the weight-bearing portion of the femoral head. This condition results in severe functional impairment, pain, and even disability of the hip joint. Existing animal models of ONFH have limitations in replicating the natural disease progression accurately. Thus, there is a critical need to develop a novel animal model capable of better simulating localized pressure on the human femoral head to facilitate ONFH-related research. METHODS In this study, we present a novel approach for modeling ONFH, which involves integrating stress factors into the modeling process through the utilization of 3D printing technology and principles of biomechanics. A total of 36 animals were randomly assigned to six groups, where they received either the novel modeling technique or the traditional hormone induction method. Subsequently, an 8-week treatment period was implemented, followed by conducting micro-CT scans and histological evaluations to assess tissue outcomes. RESULTS The study evaluated the cytotoxicity of the material used in the new model, and it was observed that the material did not exhibit any cytotoxic effects on cells. Additionally, the novel model successfully replicated the pathological features of ONFH, including femoral head collapse, along with a substantial presence of empty bone lacunae, cartilage defects, and subchondral bone fractures in the subchondral bone region. CONCLUSION In conclusion, our study provides evidence that the new model shows the ability to simulate the progression of the disease, making it a valuable tool for research in this field and can contribute to the development of better treatment strategies for this debilitating condition. It holds great promise for advancing our understanding of the pathogenesis of ONFH and the potential therapeutic interventions for this challenging clinical problem.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the value of CT-based radiomics and clinical data in predicting the efficacy of non-vascularized bone grafting (NVBG) in hip preservation, and to construct a visual, quantifiable, and effective method for decision-making of hip preservation. Methods Between June 2009 and June 2019, 153 patients (182 hips) with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) who underwent NVBG for hip preservation were included, and the training and testing sets were divided in a 7∶3 ratio to define hip preservation success or failure according to the 3-year postoperative follow-up. The radiomic features of the region of interest in the CT images were extracted, and the radiomics-scores were calculated by the linear weighting and coefficients of the radiomic features after dimensionality reduction. The clinical predictors were screened using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis. The radiomics model, clinical model, and clinical-radiomics (C-R) model were constructed respectively. Their predictive performance for the efficacy of hip preservation was compared in the training and testing sets, with evaluation indexes including area under the curve, C-Index, sensitivity, specificity, and calibration curve, etc. The best model was visualised using nomogram, and its clinical utility was assessed by decision curves. Results At the 3-year postoperative follow-up, the cumulative survival rate of hip preservation was 70.33%. Continued exposure to risk factors postoperative and Japanese Investigation Committee (JIC) staging were clinical predictors of the efficacy of hip preservation, and 13 radiomic features derived from least absolute shrinkage and selection operator downscaling were used to calculate Rad-scores. The C-R model outperformed both the clinical and radiomics models in predicting the efficacy of hip preservation 1, 2, 3 years postoperative in both the training and testing sets ( P<0.05), with good agreement between the predicted and observed values. A nomogram constructed based on the C-R model showed that patients with lower Rad-scores, no further postoperative exposure to risk factors, and B or C1 types of JIC staging had a higher probability of femoral survival at 1, 2, 3 years postoperatively. The decision curve analysis showed that the C-R model had a higher total net benefit than both the clinical and radiomics models with a single predictor, and it could bring more net benefit to patients within a larger probability threshold. Conclusion The prediction model and nomogram constructed by CT-based radiomics combined with clinical data is a visual, quantifiable, and effective method for decision-making of hip preservation, which can predict the efficacy of NVBG before surgery and has a high value of clinical application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impaired blood supply to the bones is an important pathological feature of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SIONFH). Danshen is a Chinese herb that shows therapeutic effects on SIONFH, but the effects of one of its major bioactive constituents, Tanshinone I (TsI), on SIONFH remain unknown. Here, we evaluated the effects of TsI on SIONFH, particularly focusing on its effects on angiogenesis, in in vivo and in vitro research. METHODS SIONFH was induced in Sprague-Dawley rats by an intramuscular injection of methylprednisolone (40 mg/kg) in combination with an intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (20 μg/kg). Morphological alterations of the femoral head were observed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and HE staining. Western blot, qRT-PCR, and immunohistochemical/immunofluorescence staining were used to determine gene expression. RESULTS TsI (10 mg/kg) alleviated bone loss and rescued the expression of angiogenesis-related molecules (CD31, VWF, VEGF, and VEGFR2) in the femoral heads of SIONFH rats. Notably, TsI rescued the down-regulated expression of SRY-box transcription factor 11 (SOX11) in CD31+ endothelial cells in the femoral heads of SIONFH rats. In vitro studies showed that TsI preserved the dexamethasone-harmed angiogenic property (migration and tube formation) of human umbilical vein cells (EA.hy926), suppressed dexamethasone-induced cell apoptosis, reduced pro-apoptotic proteins (cytosolic cytochrome C, Bax, and caspase 3/9) and increased anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2, whereas silencing of SOX11 reversed these beneficial effects. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that TsI alleviates SIONFH and promotes angiogenesis by regulating SOX11 expression. Our work would provide new evidence for the application of TsI to treat SIONFH.

Abstract
Background Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is an ischemic disease characterized by the impairment of angiogenesis. We have previously elucidated the role of tsRNAs and BMSC exosomes in ONFH, but whether tsRNA-modified BMSC exosomes promote angiogenesis in ONFH remains unclear. Methods The expression of angiogenesis-related tsRNA in plasma exosomes from ONFH patients was examined by q-PCR. The function of tsRNA in HUVECs was identified by CCK-8 and angiogenesis assay. Exosomes purified from tsRNA-15797 overexpressed BMSCs were cocultured with HUVECs to examine their role in angiogenesis. The molecule mechanism of tsRNA-15797-modified exosomes was explored by RNA sequencing, dual-luciferase assay, and immunofluorescence. Results A tRNA-derived small RNA tsRNA-15797 was down-regulated in plasma exosomes of ONFH patients. We found the effects of BMSCs-derived exosomes on accelerating HUVECs angiogenesis and migration, which were further enhanced after overexpressing tsRNA-15797. Besides, overexpression of tsRNA-15797 would lead to down-regulation of LFNG correlated with angiogenesis. tsRNA-15797 could directly interact with LFNG. We demonstrated that LNFG overexpression weakened the pro angiogenic and migratory effects of tsRNA-15797-modified BMSCs-derived exosomes. Conclusion We successfully constructed tsRNA-15797-modified BMSC-derived exosomes and demonstrated that it induced the angiogenesis of HUVECs by targeting the down-regulation of LFNG. Thus, tsRNA-15797-loaded BMSCs-derived exosomes may be a potential target therapy drug for ONFH.

Abstract
Glucocorticoid (GC)-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a serious complication of glucocorticoid treatment and is characterized by dysfunctional bone reconstruction at necrotic sites. Our previous study confirmed the protective potential of necrostatin-1, a selective blocker of necroptosis, in glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. In this study, rat models of GC-induced ONFH were established to evaluate the effects of necrostatin-1 on osteonecrotic changes and repair processes. Osteonecrosis was verified by histopathological staining. An analysis of trabecular bone architecture was performed to evaluate osteogenesis in the osteonecrotic zone. Then, necroptotic signaling molecules such as RIP1 and RIP3 were examined by immunohistochemistry. Histopathological observations indicated that necrostatin-1 administration reduced the incidence of osteonecrosis and the osteogenic response in subchondral areas. Additionally, bone histomorphometry demonstrated that necrostatin-1 intervention could restore bone reconstruction in the necrotic zone. The protective mechanism of necrostatin-1 was related to the inhibition of RIP1 and RIP3. Necrostatin-1 administration alleviated GC-induced ONFH in rats by attenuating the formation of necrotic lesions, recovering the function of osteogenesis, and suppressing glucocorticoid-induced osteocytic necroptosis by inhibiting the expression of RIP1 and RIP3.

Abstract
Objective To analyze the femoral head collapse and the operation of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in different Japanese Investigation Commitee (JIC) types, in order to summarize the prognostic rules of each type of ONFH, and explore the clinical significance of CT lateral subtypes based on reconstruction of necrotic area of C1 type and verify their clinical effect. Methods A total of 119 patients (155 hips) with ONFH between May 2004 and December 2016 were enrolled in the study. The total hips consisted of 34 hips in type A, 33 in type B, 57 in type C1, and 31 in type C2, respectively. There was no significant difference in age, gender, affected side, or type of ONFH of the patients with differenct JIC types ( P>0.05). The 1-, 2-, and 5-year femoral head collapse and operation of different JIC types were analyzed, as well as the survival rate (with femoral head collapse as the end point) of hip joint between different JIC types, hormonal/non-hormonal ONFH, asymptomatic and symptomatic (pain duration >6 months or ≤6 months), and combined preserved angle (CPA) ≥118.725° and CPA<118.725°. JIC types with significant differences in subgroup surgery and collapse and with research value were selected. According to the location of the necrotic area on the surface of the femoral head, the JIC classification was divided into 5 subtypes in the lateral CT reconstruction, and the contour line of the necrotic area was extracted and matched to the standard femoral head model, and the necrosis of the five subtypes was presented by thermography. The 1-, 2-, and 5-year outcomes of femoral head collapse and operation in different lateral subtypes were analyzed, and the survival rates (with collapse of the femoral head as the end point) between CPA≥118.725° and CPA<118.725° hip in patients with this subtype were compared, as well as the survival rates of different lateral subtypes (with collapse and surgery as the end points, respectively). Results The femoral head collapse rate and operation rate in the 1-, 2-, and 5-year were significantly higher in patients with JIC C2 type than in patients with other hip types ( P<0.05), while in patients with JIC C1 type than in patients with JIC types A and B ( P<0.05). The survival rate of patients with different JIC types was significantly different ( P<0.05), and the survival rate of patients with JIC types A, B, C1, and C2 decreased gradually. The survival rate of asymptomatic hip was significantly higher than that of symptomatic hip, and the survival rate of CPA≥118.725° was significantly higher than that of CPA<118.725° ( P<0.05). The lateral CT reconstruction of type C1 hip necrosis area was selected for further classification, including type 1 in 12 hips, type 2 in 20 hips, type 3 in 9 hips, type 4 in 9 hips, and type 5 in 7 hips. There were significant differences in the femoral head collapse rate and the operation rate among the subtypes after 5 years of follow-up ( P<0.05). The collapse rate and operation rate of types 4 and 5 were 0; the collapse rate and operation rate of type 3 were the highest; the collapse rate of type 2 was high, but the operation rate was lower than that of type 3; the collapse rate of type 1 was high, but the operation rate was 0. In JIC type C1 patients, the survival rate of the hip joint with CPA≥118.725° was significantly higher than that with CPA<118.725° ( P<0.05). In the follow-up with femoral head collapse as the end point, the survival rates of types 4 and 5 were all 100%, while the survival rates of types 1, 2, and 3 were all 0, and the difference was significant ( P<0.05). The survival rate of types 1, 4, and 5 was 100%, of type 3 was 0, and of type 2 was 60%, showing significant difference ( P<0.05). Conclusion JIC types A and B can be treated by non-surgical treatment, while type C2 can be treated by surgical treatment with hip preservation. Type C1 was classified into 5 subtypes by CT lateral classification, type 3 has the highest risk of femoral head collapse, types 4 and 5 have low risk of femoral head collapse and operation, type 1 has high femoral head collapse rate but low risk of operation; type 2 has high collapse rate, but the operation rate is close to the average of JIC type C1, which still needs to be further studied.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Runt-related transcription factor-2 (Runx2) has been considered an inducer to improve bone repair ability of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). METHODS AND RESULTS Twenty-four rabbits were used to establish Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) and randomly devided into four groups: Adenovirus Runx2 (Ad-Runx2) group, Runx2-siRNA group, MSCs group and Model group. At 1 week after model establishment, the Ad-Runx2 group was treated with 5 × 107 MSCs transfected through Ad-Runx2, the Runx2-siRNA group was treated with 5 × 107 MSCs transfected through Runx2-siRNA, the MSCs group was injected with 5 × 107 untreated MSCs, and the Model group was treated with saline. The injection was administered at 1 week and 3 weeks after model establishment. The expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2), Runx2 and Osterix from the femoral head was detected at 3 and 6 weeks after MSCs being injected, and Masson Trichrome Staining, Gross Morphology, X-ray and CT images observation were used to evaluate the repair effect of ONFH. The data revealed that the expression of BMP-2, Runx2 and Osterix in the Runx2-siRNA group was reduced at 3 weeks compared with the MSCs group, and then the expression further reduced at 6 weeks, but was still higher than the Model group besides Osterix; The expression of these three genes in the Ad-Runx2 group was higher than in the MSCs group. Masson Trichrome Staining, Gross Morphology and X-ray and CT images observation revealed that necrotic femoral head of the MSCs group was more regular and smooth than the Runx2-siRNA group, which has a collapsed and irregular femoral head. In the Ad-Runx2 group, necrotic femoral head was basically completely repaired and covered by rich cartilage and bone tissue. CONCLUSIONS Overexpression of Runx2 can improve osteoblastic phenotype maintenance of MSCs and promote necrotic bone repair of ONFH.

Abstract
Glucocorticoids induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (GIONFH) is a devastating orthopedic disease. Previous studies suggested that connexin43 is involved in the process of osteogenesis and angiogenesis. However, the role of Cx43 potentiates in the osteogenesis and angiogenesis of bone marrow-derived stromal stem cells (BMSCs) in GIONFH is still not investigated. In this study, BMSCs were isolated and transfected with green fluorescent protein or the fusion gene encoding GFP and Cx43. The osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs were detected after transfected with Cx43. In addition, the migration abilities and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were been detected after induced by transfected BMSCs supernatants in vitro. Finally, we established GC-ONFH rat model, then, a certain amount of transfected or controlled BMSCs were injected into the tibia of the rats. Immunohistological staining and micro-CT scanning results showed that the transplanted experiment group had significantly promoted more bone regeneration and vessel volume when compared with the effects of the negative or control groups. This study demonstrated for the first time that the Cx43 overexpression in BMSCs could promote bone regeneration as seen in the osteogenesis and angiogenesis process, suggesting that Cx43 may serve as a therapeutic gene target for GIONFH treatment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a disorder that causes a collapse of the femoral head, requiring subsequent total hip replacement. However, the pathogenesis of ONFH remains largely unclear. Herein, exosome metabolomics analyses were conducted to explore the pathophysiology of ONFH. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to conduct metabolic profiling of bone-derived exosomes of ONFH. METHODS 30 ONFH patients and 30 femoral neck fracture (FNF) patients were included in this study. Exosomes were harvested from the femoral head by using ultracentrifugation. Ultraperformance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was performed in combination with multivariate statistical analysis to reveal and provided new insight into identify the global metabolic profile of ONFH. RESULTS The results of transmission electron microscope (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and Western blots indicated that the microvesicles isolated from the femoral head were exosomes. Several compounds were identified, including lipids and lipid-like molecules, amino acids, peptides, organooxygen compounds. 44 differential metabolites were screened between ONFH and FNF patients. The up-and down-regulation of Riboflavin metabolism, Pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis, Glycerophospholipid metabolism, and Sphingolipid metabolism were associated with ONFH pathophysiology. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that metabolomics has huge prospects for elucidating pathophysiology of ONFH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) are involved in the pathological mechanism of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). This study aimed to investigate the relationship of serum MMP-9, TIMP-1, and the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio with disease severity in patients with nontraumatic ONFH. METHODS Serum levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 among 102 nontraumatic ONFH patients and 96 healthy individuals were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Imaging severity was determined using the FICAT classification system. The Harris hip score (HHS) and visual analogue scale (VAS) were used to evaluate clinical progress. The correlations of serum MMP-9 and TIMP-1 levels with imaging severity and clinical progress was evaluated statistically. The diagnostic value of MMP-9 for NONFH disease severity was evaluated by examining receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. RESULTS The serum MMP-9 levels and the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio were significantly increased in patients with ONFH compared to normal controls, and TIMP-1 levels did not differ between the two groups. Serum MMP-9 levels and the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio were positively correlated with FICAT stage and VAS and were negatively correlated with the HHS score. The ROC curve results indicated that MMP-9 could be used as a potential marker of nontraumatic ONFH imaging progression. CONCLUSIONS We hypothesize that increased MMP-9 expression and an imbalance in the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio play a role in the development of ONFH and are correlate with the severity of ONFH. The determination of MMP-9 can be a useful tool to assess the severity of the disease in patients with nontraumatic ONFH.
