OBJECTIVE:To compare the efficacy and safety of terlipatide and bisphosphate in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis fractures through a Meta-analysis. METHODS:By searching PubMed,Cochrane Library,EMbase,CNKI,WanFang and VIP databases,18 randomized controlled studies on terlipatide and bisphosphate in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis fractures were included according to inclusion and exclusion criteria.Endnote X9 software was used to manage the literature and Revman 5.3 software was used to perform a Meta-analysis on the extracted data.The incidences of vertebral fracture,non-vertebral fracture and adverse reaction in postmenopausal osteoporosis patients treated with terlipatide and bisphosphate were analyzed. RESULTS:A total of 18 randomized controlled studies were included,of which 10 were of medium and high quality and 8 were of low quality.Meta-analysis results showed that the fracture incidence in the teriparatide group[risk ratio(RR)=0.56,95%confidence interval(CI):0.48-0.66,P＜0.000 01]was lower than that in the bisphosphonate group,and teriparatide was superior to alendronate in preventing fractures in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis(RR=0.50,95%CI:0.35-0.69,P＜0.000 1)and other bisphosphonates(RR=0.58,95%CI:0.49-0.70,P＜0.000 01).During the follow-up over 18 months,teriparatide was superior to bisphosphonates in preventing fractures in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis(RR=0.56,95%CI:0.48-0.69,P＜0.000 01).In addition,we found that teriparatide was superior to bisphosphonates in preventing vertebral fractures(RR=0.48,95%CI:0.37-0.62,P＜0.000 01)and non-vertebral fractures(RR=0.63,95%CI:0.51-0.78,P＜0.000 1)in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.Teriparatide was superior to bisphosphonates in increasing lumbar bone density[odds ratio=4.16,95%CI:2.96-5.36,P＜0.000 1)and femoral neck bone density(odds ratio=1.02,95%CI:0.04-2.01,P=0.04).There was no significant difference in adverse reactions between teriparatide and bisphosphonates(RR=0.95,95%CI:0.85,1.06,P=0.37). CONCLUSION:Teriparatide is superior to bisphosphonates in preventing vertebral and non-vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis,but the safety and adverse drug reactions of teriparatide and bisphosphonates are basically similar.Teriparatide is superior to bisphosphonate in preventing fracture and improving lumbar and femoral neck bone density regardless of short-term(＜18 months)or long-term(≥18 months)use.

BACKGROUND:Studies have exhibited that symmetrical distribution and effective dose of bone cement can reduce postoperative vertebral refractures and help improve outcomes,but obtaining better distribution and dose of bone cement during percutaneous vertebroplasty remains an issue for surgeons. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the risk factors of percutaneous vertebroplasty in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture,and to analyze the correlation between these factors and recurrent fractures of the operative vertebral body and adjacent vertebral bodies after percutaneous vertebroplasty. METHODS:111 patients who underwent unilateral approach percutaneous vertebroplasty in Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2018 to December 2021 were screened and divided into fracture group(n=17)and non-fracture group(n=94)according to whether refracture was observed during follow-up.The following variables were reviewed in both groups:Gender,age,body mass index,operation time,menopause age,bone cement distribution index,bone density T value,bone cement dose,location of bone cement distribution,percutaneous vertebroplasty stage,past history,adverse reactions and disc cement leakage of patients.These variables were analyzed by univariate analysis.The statistically significant factors were replaced by a binary Logistic regression model to analyze the correlation with vertebral refracture after percutaneous vertebroplasty. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Univariate analysis demonstrated that after percutaneous vertebroplasty,vertebral refracture was associated with disc cement leakage(P=0.000),cement dose(P=0.049),and cement distribution location(P=0.017).(2)Binary Logistic regression revealed that bone cement leakage(P=0.000),cement dose(P=0.031),and location of cement distribution(P=0.015)were risk factors for recurrent fracture of the operative vertebral body and adjacent vertebral body after percutaneous vertebroplasty.Compared with cement distribution types I,II,and III,the risk of recurrent fracture in the operative and adjacent vertebrae was higher in cement distribution types IV and V(OR=36.340,P=0.016;OR=27.755,P=0.017).(3)It is concluded that recurrent fractures of the surgically operated vertebral body and adjacent vertebral bodies are caused by the interaction of multiple risk factors.Bone cement distribution and bone cement leakage were independent risk factors.Recurrent fractures of the operative vertebra and adjacent vertebrae are more likely when the cement is distributed in type IV and type V.Surgeons should fully assess these risk factors before surgery and develop targeted prevention and treatment strategies to help reduce the risk of future refractures.

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that good bone cement distribution during percutaneous vertebroplasty reduces postoperative secondary vertebral fractures and helps improve prognosis.However,how to get a good distribution of bone cement is a problem for spine surgeons. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the correlation of bone cement distribution with surgical and adjacent vertebral refractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty. METHODS:A total of 193 patients with thoracolumbar compression fracture(≤2 fractured vertebrae)admitted to Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Orthopedic Hospital from January 2018 to December 2022 were selected.They underwent percutaneous vertebroplasty via unilateral approach and were followed up after surgery.They were divided into fracture group(n=30)and non-fracture group(n=163)based on whether the surgical and adjacent vertebral fractures were observed during the follow-up period(more than 6 months).The basic data of the two groups were analyzed by univariate analysis.Statistically significant factors were replaced with binary logistic regression model to explore the correlation with recompression fracture of surgical and adjacent vertebrae after percutaneous vertebroplasty. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Univariate analysis showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups in gender,body mass index,menopause age of female patients,bone cement dose,previous history,smoking history,drinking history,operation segment,operation time,and hospital stay(P>0.05).There were significant differences in age,bone mineral density T value,bone cement leakage,and bone cement distribution between the two groups(P<0.05).(2)Binary logistic regression analysis showed that age(95%CI:1.016-1.167,P=0.016),bone cement leakage(95%CI:0.080-0.582,P=0.002),bone mineral density T value(95%CI:1.214-22.602,P=0.026),and bone cement distribution(P=0.007)were risk factors for recurrent fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty and adjacent vertebroplasty.Patients with type I bone cement distribution(which did not touch the upper and lower endplates of the vertebral body)had a higher risk of recurrent fractures of surgical and adjacent vertebrae after percutaneous vertebroplasty.(3)The results of this study show that refracture of surgical and adjacent vertebrae is caused by the interaction of various risk factors.Age,bone cement leakage,T value of bone mineral density and bone cement distribution are independent risk factors for surgical and adjacent vertebral refracture.Refracture of surgical and adjacent vertebrae can easily occur when bone cement is distributed type I.
