Can routine lumbar radiographs reveal muscle mass?
In this Author 360, Takeru Kataoka, MD, a doctor at Shiga Spine Center at Hino Memorial Hospital, explores whether the psoas muscle shadow visible on routine lumbar spine X-rays can serve as a simple surrogate marker for sarcopenia.
Through this study, Dr. Kataoka discusses how this widely available imaging tool could help identify patients who may benefit from a more detailed musculoskeletal assessment, highlighting how familiar tools can offer new insights into patient health.

Is pyrocarbon the future for treating glenohumeral osteoarthritis in young patients? In this commentary, Michelle E. Kew, MD, examines a prospective review evaluating PyroTITAN pyrocarbon humeral resurfacing at 5-year follow-up.
The study demonstrated a 97.5% 5-year implant survival rate alongside significant improvements in range of motion, strength, and patient-reported outcome scores. Dr. Kew discusses the promise of pyrocarbon wear surfaces for expanding hemiarthroplasty indications while highlighting key considerations for long-term clinical decision-making.

💡On the cover of this past week’s JBJS issue: “A Fracture Healing Odyssey: Kinematic Comparison of Unions and Nonunions in Human Lower-Extremity Long Bones Treated with Intramedullary Nailing. A Retrospective Cohort Study” by Lopas et al.
“Current clinical assessments of fracture healing rely on cross-sectional radiographs, which fail to capture the longitudinal nature of fracture healing. This study addresses that gap by using our novel parametric statistical framework to quantify the temporal progression of fracture healing.”
