The number of patients on long-term anti-osteoporotic drug therapy is rising. Unfortunately, there are few data to guide decisions about duration of pharmacologic therapy for osteoporosis.

Nanoroughness, Surface Chemistry and Drug Delivery Control by Atmospheric Plasma Jet on Implantable Devices [PDF]
Implantable devices need specific tailored surface morphologies and chemistries to interact with the living systems or to actively induce a biological response also by the release of drugs or proteins.

Reversal of the diabetic bone signature with anabolic therapies in mice
The mechanisms underlying the bone disease induced by diabetes are complex and not fully understood; and antiresorptive agents, the current standard of care, do not restore the weakened bone architecture.

Bone Adaptation as a Geometric Flow [PDF]
This paper presents bone adaptation as a geometric flow. The proposed method is based on two assumptions: first, that the bone surface is smooth (not fractal) permitting the definition of a tangent plane and, second, that the interface between marrow and bone tissue phases is orientable.

Change in Bone Density and Reduction in Fracture Risk: A Meta‐Regression of Published Trials
Meta‐analyses conducted >15 years ago reported that improvements in bone mineral density (BMD) were associated with reduction in vertebral and nonvertebral fractures in osteoporosis trials.

Osteocytes as a record of bone formation dynamics: A mathematical model of osteocyte generation in bone matrix [PDF]
The formation of new bone involves both the deposition of bone matrix, and the formation of a network of cells embedded within the bone matrix, called osteocytes. Osteocytes derive from bone-synthesising cells (osteoblasts) that become buried in bone matrix during bone deposition.
