RESUMEN
Currently, despite advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic modalities, osteomyelitis and prosthetic joint infection (PJI) continue to pose significant challenges for orthopaedic surgeons. These challenges are primarily attributed to the high degree of heterogeneity exhibited by these disorders, which are influenced by a combination of environmental and host factors. Recent research efforts have delved into the pathogenesis of osteomyelitis and PJI by investigating single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). This review comprehensively summarizes the current evidence regarding the associations between SNPs and the predisposition to osteomyelitis and PJI across diverse populations. The findings suggest potential linkages between SNPs in genes such as IL-1, IL-6, IFN-γ, TNF-α, VDR, tPA, CTSG, COX-2, MMP1, SLC11A1, Bax, NOS2, and NLRP3 with the development of osteomyelitis. Furthermore, SNPs in genes like IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α, MBL, OPG, RANK, and GCSFR are implicated in susceptibility to PJI. However, it is noted that most of these studies are single-center reports, lacking in-depth mechanistic research. To gain a more profound understanding of the roles played by various SNPs in the development of osteomyelitis and PJI, future multi-center studies and fundamental investigations are deemed necessary.

OBJECTIVE: To systematically assess the clinical efficacy of bone morphogenetic proteins in the treatment of open tibial fractures. METHODS: Based on the principles and methods of Cochrane systematic reviews, the Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE, Chinese Bio-medicine Database, China Journal Full-text Database, VIP database were searched from their establishment to April 2012 in whatever language. Related journals were handsearched as well. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of bone morphogenetic protein for the treatment of open tibial fractures were included. The quality of the included trials according to the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions Version was assessed. The Cochrane Collaboration's software RevMan 5.1 was used for meta-analysis. RESULTS: Three RCTs totaling 851 patients were included. The results showed that bone morphogenetic protein had no significant differences in fracture healing [RR = 1.16, 95% CI (0.95,1.41), P = 0.15], but lower secondary interventions incidence rate [RR = 0.72, 95% CI (0.58, 0.89), P = 0.003]. There were no significant differences between the two groups in the incidence of adverse events of infection [RR = 1.31, 95% CI (0.94, 1.81), P = 0.11] and pain [RR = 0.92, 95% CI (0.79, 1.08), P = 0.30]. CONCLUSION: Bone morphogenetic protein has certain advantages in treating open tibial fractures. It needs more high-quality articles to assess the long-term effect of different courses of treatments. The above conclusion still needs more high-quality randomized controlled trails to be verified owing to the limitations of the number and quality of systematic review included studies.
