Bone Turnover in Postmenopausal Women with Bone Loss - Original Investigation
Osteoporosis is characterized by decrease in bone strength due to decreased bone mass and disruption of bone microstructure and eventually increase in fracture risk.

Secondary Hyperparathyroidism and Bone Turnover in Elderly with Bone Loss - Original Investigation
Bone loss is common in the elderly. Parathyroid hormone (PTH), which regulates serum calcium levels,calcitonin and vitamin D metabolites have various effects on skeletal system. The aim of this study was to assess secondary hyperparathyroidism (HPTH) and

Prevention of bone loss during 56 days of strict bed rest by side-alternating resistive vibration exercise [PDF]
Bed rest is a recognized model for muscle atrophy and bone loss in space flight and in clinical medicine. We hypothesized that whole body vibration in combination with resistive exercise (RVE) would be an effective countermeasure.

Prediction of risk of fracture in the tibia due to altered bone mineral density distribution resulting from disuse: a finite element study [PDF]
The disuse-related bone loss that results from immobilisation following injury shares characteristics with osteoporosis in post-menopausal women and the aged, with decreases in bone mineral density leading to weakening of the bone and increased risk of ...

Effect of anastrozole on bone mineral density and lipid profiles when used to prevent breast cancer in high risk postmenopausal women [PDF]
PhDThe role of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) in breast cancer has expanded since their introduction in the mid-1990s. They are superior to tamoxifen in the treatment of postmenopausal women with oestrogen dependant tumours in the metastatic, neoadjuvant ...

Biologicals and bone loss [PDF]
Inflammatory joint diseases are associated with extra-articular side effects including bone involvement.There is an increased risk of osteoporotic fractures. The pathogeneses of local and generalized bone loss share a common pathway. Early and active rheumatoid arthritis is associated with longitudinal observed bone loss and fracture rate is of ...

Development of a Radiographic Index for Periodontitis
The use of radiographic indices is noticeably diminished due to the lack of simplicity and standardisation among the existing ones. The aim of this study was to introduce a radiographic index to aid clinicians in determining the extent and severity of ...
