Bone infection: a clinical priority for clinicians and scientists Host Society: Orthopedic Research Society |
|
Chairs: Abstract: Bone infection has received increasing attention in recent years as one of the main outstanding clinical problems in orthopaedic and trauma surgery. The continued threat of antibiotic resistance, and the increasing number of patients projected to receive arthroplasty in the coming years, ensures this clinical problem will continue to impact patients at an unacceptably high rate without significant new interventions. The basic biology of bone infection dominates the clinical management of bone infection as best illustrated by the importance of biofilm formation on implant revision and antibiotic treatment protocols. In recent years, we have seen important new discoveries in relation to bacterial invasion into bone, host immune responses, as well as interventions custom-designed to target bone infection. These scientific advances are likely to pave the way for improved therapeutics in future years. The following session will present the clinical challenges of bone infection, and how recent scientific advances focussed on this problem has revealed new targets for intervention, ultimately aimed at improving patient care. |

Leadership and representation in orthopaedic and musculoskeletal research: challenging the status quo. Host society: European Orthopaedic Research Society |
|
Chairs: This symposium aims at presenting and discussing inspiring, high-quality contributions brought by a diverse body of eminent scientists in orthopaedic and musculoskeletal research. We want to provide a comprehensive discussion platform to emphasise the progress accomplished and reflect on the work still to be done in a science area often perceived as one of the least open to diversity and inclusion. Relevant topics such as female representation in science, gender equality, and the impact of females on scientific work will be discussed. We wish also to provide an allied platform for the LGBTQIA+ community and their intersectionality with women representation. We recognise that gender inequalities, unconscious bias, and associated patterns are transversal instances, often hindering the opportunity for fair representation in academia, industry, and the wider society. These disparities have been unfortunately further enhanced by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, after the talks, a round table will be organized with the keynote, speakers, and chairs to stimulate an open discussion on all the above mentioned subjects. The audience will be stimulated to interact and participate in an open discussion. Opinions beyond what will be presented during the talks will have a podium for discussion on this round table. We welcome contributions from several fields pertaining to orthopaedic and musculoskeletal research, to include medical, academic, pharma/biotech industry, policy making, science law and ethics fields. |

Chairs: Professor, Tae-Joon Cho, MD, PhD, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Seoul National University Children's Hospital, Seoul, Korea Abstract: Regenerative medicine for the repair of skeletal tissues is a rapidly changing filed of great interest in various biomedical research. Many kinds of biological sources, such as stem cells, biomaterials, and small molecules, has been tried for skeletal tissue repair, but unfortunately the clinical association between the various biological sources is often not made. Particularly, it would be important to understand the natural associations between biological sources for the successful regeneration of skeletal tissues such as tendon, cartilage, meniscus and skin. Regenerative medicine and biological source for the repair of skeletal tissues address this gap in the market by bringing together the clinical association of tendon, cartilage, meniscus, skin to provide a review of the different strategies, and more importantly provide a clear discussion of practical techniques and biological sources that can be employed to repair the skeletal tissues. In this workshop, we will firstly discuss the results of study on the regeneration of tendon and ligament using biologics. Second, we will focus on the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and small molecules for osteoarthritis (OA) treatment. Third, we will discuss the functional and anatomical restoration of meniscus using 3D cell printing technique. Lastly, we will then discuss the development of an efficient biomaterials for diabetic wound healing. |

Translational cell-based therapies in orthopaedics Host societies: ON Foundation/European Orthopaedic Research Society |
|
Chair: Abstract: This Symposium is dedicated to the advancement of cell-based therapies for musculoskeletal diseases. Cellular therapies in musculoskeletal medicine are a source of great promise and opportunity. They are also the source of public controversy, confusion and misinformation. Patients, clinicians, scientists, industry and government share a commitment to clear communication and responsible development of the field. Cell-based therapies in the orthopaedic clinical setting have existed for around 30 years and currently there are several in use or in clinical trials around the globe for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. Therefore, this symposium will analyze the state of the art of the ongoing clinical studies running in Europe on translational cell therapies in orthopaedics. |

Transverse Tibial Cortex Transport Surgery: What is it and Why we need it? Host Society: Chinese Orthopaedic Research Society |
|
Chair: Abstract: Since 2011, clinical scientists in China launched a novel strategy for the treatment of severe DFU (Wagner III and above) by using transverse tibial cortex transport technique (TTT) with proven success. Following TTT, the wound healing become more responsive and effective. With a review of a few hundred cases of severe DFU cases treated with TTT in China, the wound healing rate and limb salvage rate was over 95% for Wagner, and 1-year recurrence rate of DFU was less than 9%. The possible underlying mechanisms for the TTL surgery are: (1) decompress the marrow cavity and promote microcirculation and angiogenesis in the distal limb. (2) systemic factors release to promote stem cells mobilization and wound healing. (3) regulate local inflammation such as macrophages transformation from M1 to M2 phase. (4) other possible mechanisms including improvement in the sympathetic never or lymphatic microcirculation functions. More studies are still needed to discover the underlying biological mechanisms of TTT treatment for DFU and other peripheral avascular diseases. TTT surgery is a novel, simple and cost-effective surgical method to promote DFU healing, especially for severe DUF cases, which has a high successful rate of limb salvage and low incidence of recurrence for severe DUF. |
