Additional comments on extracellular vesicles derived from mesenchymal stem cells mediate extracellular matrix remodeling in osteoarthritis.

Recently, we read an article published by the Yang et al. The results of this study indicated that engineered exosomes loaded with microRNA-29a (miR-29a) alleviate knee inflammation and maintain extracellular matrix stability in Sprague Dawley rats. The study's results provide useful information for treating knee osteoarthritis (KOA). This letter, shares our perspectives on treating KOA using engineered exosomes for miR-29a.

Conservative treatment of congenital radial head subluxation and non-traumatic elbow locking: A case report.

Congenital radial head subluxation is relatively rare and may be overlooked due to mild symptoms. The diagnosis mainly relies on imaging and history. Observation is an option for those with insignificant symptoms, while surgical intervention, such as ulnar osteotomy or arthroscopy, is often required when dysfunction exists. A 30-year-old man was admitted with congenital radial head dislocation, which was treated with manipulative repositioning. During follow-up, the patient regained the original mobility of the elbow joint and had no recurrence of dislocation. In conclusion, in adults with congenital dislocation of the radial head, we recommend conservative treatment as a first step.
