Objective To assess the therapeutic effect of bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on osteoporotic fracture healing .Methods Bone marrow of the rat bilateral femur and tibia bone tissue were collected ,and BMSCs were isolated by the whole bone marrow adherence method .Sixty female 11‐week‐old SD rats were ovariectomized (OVX) to induce osteoporosis followed by bilateral fracture generation .Twenty rats were left without giving any further treatment (OVX controls) ,20 received injection of saline (OVX+placebo control) and 20 were given injection of BMSCs (OVX+BMSCs) .X‐ray scan was performed at 3‐day ,4‐week and 8‐week post‐fracture ,respectively .Results Flow cytometry analysis revealed that the isolated BMSCs express sur‐face antigens similar to those reported previously .X‐ray results showed that compared with OVX and OVX+placebo groups ,BM‐SCs treatment markedly accelerated fracture healing of in osteoporotic rats .Conclusion Transplantation of BMSCs can effectively improve the healing of primary osteoporotic fracture .

Objective Through the research and analysis of guangdong medical college affiliated hospital orthopaedic hospitalized patients with a diagnosis of osteoporosis in Zhanjiang,this paper provide theoretical basis for the prevention of osteoporosis frac-ture.Methods The elderly aged over 40 years old,living in this area for a long time.Data was collected from August 2012 to Feb-ruary 2014,hospitalized patients in guangdong medical college affiliated hospital were diagnosed with osteoporosis.Contents include general situation survey,medical examination,venous blood tests and bone mineral density testing.Results Fracture group average age is older than the non fracture group;the fracture group lumbar spine bone mineral density(LSBMD)and femoral neck bone min-eral density(FNBMD)T value and Z value and serum calcium group is greater than the fracture and the differences were statistically significant(P <0.05).Fracture group in gender divided into two groups for comparison,in which women older than men,and the difference was statistically significant(P <0.05),male LSBMD T and Z values and FNBMD T value is greater than the female and the difference was statistically significant(P <0.05).According to the 10 year age group,Each age group compared with the frac-ture number and non fracture number,in the age group of 70-80 fracture number were the most;All age groups in LSBMD,FNB-MD,serum calcium(Ca)and VitD compared,non fracture group is most higher than that of fracture group.The influence factors of the fractures for non conditional Logistic regression analysis,age,LSBMD,FNBMD T value increased were risk factors for fracture, VitD,FNBMD,LSBMD T value increased were protective factors of fracture.Conclusion Need as soon as possible to prevent osteo-porosis,especially before the age of 40,try to improve the peak bone density,to prevent the occurrence of osteoporosis in the future.
