When Cortical Bone Matrix Properties Are Indiscernible between Elderly Men with and without Type 2 Diabetes, Fracture Resistance Follows Suit

open access: yesJBMR Plus, 2023
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disease affecting bone tissue and leading to increased fracture risk in men and women, independent of bone mineral density (BMD).

Use of depot medroxyprogesterone acetate and fracture risk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA), which has a high rate of use among teenagers in Europe and the United States, has been associated with impaired bone mineral acquisition during adolescence and accelerated bone loss in later life.

Decreased bone mass in adolescents with bone fragility fracture but not in young children: a case–control study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundThe incidence of distal forearm fracture due to minimal/moderate trauma shows a bimodal distribution for age at event, with one peak occurring during early adolescence, in both boys and girls and the other one in postmenopausal females. The aim

Muscle-bone crosstalk via endocrine signals and potential targets for osteosarcopenia-related fracture

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Translation, 2023
Background: Osteosarcopenia is a syndrome coexisting sarcopenia and osteopenia/osteoporosis, with a high fracture risk. Recently, skeletal muscle and bone have been recognized as endocrine organs capable of communication through secreting myokines and ...

Diabetes and bone

open access: yesOsteoporosis and Sarcopenia, 2019
Bone disease is a serious complication to diabetes. Patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) suffer from an increased risk of fracture, most notably at the hip, compared with patients without diabetes. Confounders such as patient sex,

Effects of osteoporosis and drugs on bone biomechanics. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
PhD16 New Zealand White (NZW) rabbits were ovariectomised (OVX) and 20 left intact as age-matched controls. 4 controls were killed at time 0, then 4 from each group at 1,3,6 and 12 months post-OVX. Serum oestradiol and body weight were recorded.

Investigation on the Differences in the Failure Processes of the Cortical Bone under Different Loading Conditions

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2022
Cortical bone is a transversely isotropic material, and the mechanical properties may be related to the loading direction on the osteon. Therefore, analyzing the differences in the failure processes of cortical bone under different loading conditions is ...

Development of Patient-Specific CT-FE Modelling of Bone Through Validation Using Porcine Femora [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A&E statistics in the UK demonstrate that as high as 60% of bone fractures occur as a result of trips and falls. Subsequently, many studies have been undertaken to simulate the occurrence of hip fractures. Little simulation has been considered outside of
