Changes in the Appendicular Skeleton with Age

The upper and lower limb initially develops as a small bulge called a limb bud, which appears on the lateral side of the early embryo. The upper limb bud appears near the end of the fourth week of development, with the lower limb bud appearing shortly after.
Initially, the limb buds consist of a core of mesenchyme covered by a layer of ectoderm. The ectoderm at the end of the limb bud thickens to form a narrow crest called the apical ectodermal ridge. This ridge stimulates the underlying...

Adrenal Gland Disorders

2.7K
Adrenal gland disorders manifest when the production of adrenal hormones deviates from the norm, resulting in either excessive or insufficient concentrations.
Adrenal insufficiency, characterized by insufficient cortisol and aldosterone production, leads to conditions like Addison's disease. This disorder, affecting the adrenal cortex, exhibits symptoms such as skin bronzing, dehydration, low blood pressure, fatigue, and weight loss. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia, a genetic ailment causing...

Bone Disorders

Aging and its effect on bone remodeling is the most common cause of bone disorders. In young and healthy people, bone deposition and resorption happen at an equal rate to maintain optimal bone health.
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Area of Science:

  • Genetics and Molecular Biology
  • Skeletal Dysplasias
  • Clinical Practice Guidelines

Background:

  • Achondroplasia (ACH) is a genetic skeletal dysplasia caused by FGFR3 gene mutations.
  • It leads to impaired chondrocyte function, affecting endochondral ossification and causing characteristic short-limb short stature.
  • ACH presents with numerous clinical complications affecting various body systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop evidence-based clinical practical guidelines for Achondroplasia (ACH) management.
  • To provide healthcare professionals and patients with decision-making support for ACH.
  • To address the scarcity of high-level evidence and clinical guidelines for ACH.

Main Methods:

  • Eleven clinical questions regarding ACH management were formulated.
  • A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed/MEDLINE.
  • Evidence-based recommendations were developed for clinical practice.

Main Results:

  • Guidelines were created to assist in the clinical management of ACH.
  • Recommendations cover various aspects of ACH care.
  • The guidelines aim to improve decision-making for ACH patients and providers.

Conclusions:

  • The developed clinical practice guidelines offer valuable support for ACH management.
  • These guidelines are expected to benefit both healthcare professionals and patients.
  • They represent a significant step in addressing the need for evidence-based ACH care.
