As the population ages, age-related diseases of the musculoskeletal system are becoming a serious threat to the health and quality of life of older people. Among them, osteosarcopenia is a common synergistic musculoskeletal degenerative disease among the elderly, predisposing them to falls, fractures, and even varying degrees of disability. In recent years, there has been increasing evidence that long-stranded non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in gene expression in bones and muscles. Therefore, in this paper, we review the regulatory roles and recent findings of lncRNAs in osteosarcopenia and explore the potential of lncRNAs as new targets and pathways for the diagnosis and treatment of osteosarcopenia in the future.

Postmenopausal osteoporosis is one of the most common systemic metabolic diseases. More and more studies have shown that iron metabolism is closely related to osteoporosis. Postmenopausal women often have iron accumulation, and iron accumulation is one of the independent risk factors for postmenopausal osteoporosis. Hepcidin is the main regulator of iron metabolism and iron homeostasis, reduces iron accumulation by using hepcidin may be the new targets for postmenopausal osteoporosis. Therefore, this paper reviewed the research progress of hepcidin on postmenopausal osteoporosis by reducing iron accumulation, in order to provide theoretical basis for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis and new drug development.

With the rapid development of society, there is a growing concern about the health issues arising from an ageing population. The main clinical manifestation of sarcopenia, which is associated with ageing, is the loss of muscle mass and/ or reduced muscle strength or function, which seriously affects the quality of life of the elderly. Screening and early intervention for sarcopenia is therefore essential. Muscle mass assessment is essential for the diagnosis and assessment of the outcome of sarcopenia. Dual-energy X-ray bone absorptiometry (DXA), computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) are the commonly used tests for clinical muscle mass. In addition to the above techniques, ultrasound techniques and 03-creatine dilution method have recently demonstrated different perspectives in the assessment of muscle mass. This paper provides a systematic review of the research advances in the above techniques for muscle mass testing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Osteoporosis is a kind of systemic bone disease, which is characterized by bone microstructure degeneration and low bone density. With the aging of China’s population, the incidence of osteoporosis is increasing, which has become an important factor threatening the quality of life of the elderly, and has brought unpredictable challenges to the public health system. In recent years, many literatures have reported that there is a coupling between angiogenesis and osteogenesis of a special type of vascular H-type in bone, which provides a new research target for the treatment of osteoporosis. This article reviews the structure and function of H-type vessels, cytokines involved in H-type angiogenesis and osteogenesis and other factors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Primary osteoporosis is a type of systemic chronic degenerative disease characterized by microstructural destruction of bone tissue, decreased bone mass, increased bone fragility, and increased risk of fracture. The use of anti-osteoporosis drugs has long cycle, high cost, and adverse reactions, which affect the quality of life of patients. In this paper, through searching CNKI, WanFang and PubMed we reviewed relevant literatures, summarized the effects of traditional exercises such as TaiChi, Baduanjin, Wuqinxi and Yijinjing on bone density loss, pain score and balancing function caused by primary osteoporosis, and analyzed the existing problems, in order to further clarify the optimized intervention schemes by traditional exercises.
