Can exercise shape the spine? A study @JOrthopRes of 308 young athletes across 6 sports reveals how basketball & soccer might improve lumbar intervertebral disc health. Find out how exercise influences IVD hypertrophy & hydration! doi.org/10.1002/jor.24… #ORSSML @ORSSociety

🚨New paper alert🚨 PhD candidate Becky Reals just published her first, first author paper in @JOrthopRes ! Keep reading to find out how immobilization affects functional changes in the elbow after an injury: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jo…

Check out this study in @JOrthopRes that shows the potential of prolonged vibration of the hamstrings to mitigate stiff limb loading strategy linked to knee OA! This technique may be an effective adjunct rehab therapy after ACL reconstruction. #ORSSMC 🔗 buff.ly/lG1ztWs

New in @JOrthopRes Mlawer et al. show that glucose & glutamine metabolism coordinate ECM remodeling in young tendon, but this link is lost with aging. A metabolic mechanism behind tendinopathy? #ORSSML #ORSAmbassador @ORSsociety 🔗bit.ly/4nzHMo0

Check out this new pub in @JOrthopRes that used finite element models to assess risk of distal femur fracture in antegrade intramedullary nail fixation of proximal femur fractures! This work has implications for geriatric patients; read it here! 🔗 buff.ly/4NUqO2V #ORSSMC

A new artificial intelligence–based test can detect early signs of #osteoporosis from X-ray images, according to a study published in @JOrthopRes. @RawNewsMedia covers the study here: ow.ly/1q6b50Wo2kn @ORSsociety #AI

Are you interested in surgical navigation systems? This new paper in @JOrthopRes explores a new vision-guided system for resection of pelvic tumors. Read it here to learn more about their findings! 🔗 buff.ly/6UoZt4e #ORSSMC

Apply for the William H. Harris, MD Award - $5,000 honorarium based on the scientific merit of a basic and/or clinical research paper involving the hip that has been accepted for publication in the @JOrthopRes. Submissions are due August 25: ors.org/ors-harris-awa…

Did you know that after #ACL reconstruction the graft remodels? This new work in @JOrthopRes analyzed this process via #RNASeq which will contribute to the identification of new approaches to improve clinical outcomes after ACL reconstruction! #ORSSMC buff.ly/OaPkLq0

Age is a known risk factor for Achilles tendon injury! This study in @JOrthopRes showed age-related changes in healthy Achilles structure that may limit its capacity to store and transfer energy in older adults. Read it here 🔗 buff.ly/QwuxsOX #ORSSMC #TendonTuesday

Are you familiar with the latest advances in surgical treatment of rotational deformities? Check out this new paper in @JOrthopRes describing a new flexible tether for the distal femur, investigated in a large animal model! #ORSSMC Read it here: 🔗 buff.ly/nsymZem

This @JOrthopRes review outlines the role of PRP in modulating MSC behavior and bone healing, with evidence from basic science to early clinical applications. #ORSSML @ORSsociety link: bit.ly/4mfr9x5

Struggling with femur malalignment during osteotomies? A radiography-based navigation tool shows promise in correcting torsional malalignment with minimal deviation. Could this be the future of precise treatments? @JOrthopRes #ORSSML @ORSSociety doi.org/10.1002/jor.24…

New in @JOrthopRes: Electrochemical testing of CoCrMo in osteoarthritic synovial fluid from 118 TKA patients shows variability, suggesting implant performance may depend on the patient’s local physiological environment & SF composition. buff.ly/ej90Bxf #ORSSMC @ORSsociety

Muscle matters! 💪 This @JOrthopRes study finds pre-op gluteal fat-fraction, not OA severity, best predicts early recovery after total hip arthroplasty. Targeted rehab = better outcomes. 🔗 doi.org/10.1002/jor.26… @ORSsociety #ORSSMC #HipArthroplasty #Rehab #OrthoResearch

Did you know ACL grafts continue to remodel post-surgery? 🦵 This @JOrthopRes study used #RNASeq to map gene expression changes—paving the way for improved outcomes after ACL reconstruction. 🔗 buff.ly/OaPkLq0 @ORSsociety #ORSSMC #ACLResearch #OrthoResearch

This In-Silico Study @JOrthopRes suggests current ISO standards notably tend to underestimate volumetric wear by up to 60% compared to the simulated patient types. They also fail to predict realistic wear patterns for activities : doi.org/10.1002/jor.26… #ORSSMC @orssociety

OA affects both humans and horses 🐎👥 This @JOrthopRes study from @SchnabelLab introduces a matrikine-based in vitro model to study OA progression-supporting translational joint research. 🔗 buff.ly/6mvFDwU @ORSsociety #ORSSMC #ORSxDerby #Osteoarthritis #EquineResearch
