Prevalence and impact of preoperative osteoporosis on healthcare utilization and patient-reported outcomes in primary total knee arthroplasty Open
Purpose Osteoporosis is a well-recognized risk factor for complications after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, the effect of pre-TKA osteoporosis on healthcare utilization and patient-reported outcomes is poorly understood. Here, we…

Muscle disuse as hindlimb unloading in early postnatal mice negatively impacts grip strength in adult mice: a pilot study Open
We demonstrate that early life disuse resulted in less grip strength in adulthood. Analysis of muscle composition demonstrated no loss of whole muscle or myofiber size indicating lower muscle quality akin to premature aging. This poor musc…
