“…Osteonecrosis is a disease caused by a temporary or permanent loss of blood supply to the bone. The causes of osteonecrosis are extensive, and the pathogenesis is still unclear (Guo et al, 2014;Cui et al, 2021;Hines et al, 2021). The potential pathogenic factors that have been explored include trauma (Pascarella et al, 2019), long-term history of heavy drinking (Chen et al, 2017), hyperlipidemia (Mogensen et al, 2017), history of hormone medication (Li et al, 2018b), decompression sickness (Jones et al, 1993), and blood system diseases such as Gaucher disease (Reed et al, 2018) and sickle cell anemia (Severyns and Gayet, 2021) among others.…”
