CONCLUSION: Mineralization and ossification of MOs with marrow formation differ by anatomical region and phenotype. These characteristics are promising imaging biomarkers for assessment of mineral turnover, joint overload and pathology, and the chondro-osteogenic potential of resident meniscal cells.

CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: TMJR is associated with statistically and clinically significant improvements in QoL.

Considerable advances have been made in our understanding of Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS), particularly in its core clinical features and molecular genetics, warranting an update to the existing diagnostic criteria framework. Using a rigorous, evidence-based, and consensus-driven process, a multidisciplinary group of international experts and patient-led organizations developed an updated diagnostic algorithm. This algorithm provides practical, updated guidance for clinicians, including a pathway...

This study investigated cross-sectional associations between self-perceived body shape and weight stigma in young adult women and men. College students (N = 555 women, N = 252 men) at a large Southern U.S. university completed an online questionnaire assessing self-perceived body shape, internalized weight stigma, and experienced weight stigma. Participants were grouped based on their self-perceived body shape as underweight, average weight, excess adiposity-gluteofemoral (GF), or excess...

Breast cancer remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among women in the United States. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is also highly prevalent in the elderly female population, and the 2 conditions frequently coexist. National mortality trends in older women with both breast cancer and DM have not been thoroughly explored. We conducted a retrospective analysis of mortality data for women aged ≥65 years with breast cancer and DM using the CDC WONDER database (1999-2020). ICD-10 codes (breast...
