Effects of resveratrol supplementation on bone growth in young rats and microarchitecture and remodeling in ageing rats [PDF]
Osteoporosis is a highly prevalent skeletal disorder in the elderly that causes serious bone fractures. Peak bone mass achieved at adolescence has been shown to predict bone mass and osteoporosis related risk fracture later in life.

Identification of Novel Genetic Variants Related to Trabecular Bone Score in Community-Dwelling Older Adults [PDF]
Background As the genetic variants of trabecular bone microarchitecture are not well-understood, we performed a genome-wide association study to identify genetic determinants of bone microarchitecture analyzed by trabecular bone score (TBS).

Osteoconductive Microarchitecture of Bone Substitutes for Bone Regeneration Revisited [PDF]
In the last three decades, all efforts in bone tissue engineering were driven by the dogma that the ideal pore size in bone substitutes lies between 0.3 and 0.5 mm in diameter. Newly developed additive manufacturing methodologies for ceramics facilitate the total control over pore size, pore distribution, bottleneck size, and bottleneck distribution ...

Effects of long-term doxycycline on bone quality and strength in diabetic male DBA/2J mice
In type 1 diabetes, diabetic bone disease (DBD) is characterized by decreased bone mineral density, a state of low bone turnover and an increased risk of fracture. Animal models of DBD demonstrate that acquired alterations in trabecular and cortical bone

Microarchitecture of bone predicts fractures in older women [PDF]
High-resolution peripheral quantitative CT (HRpQCT) provides more detailed information than older methods. A new study shows that radial and tibial HRpQCT measurements are associated with incident fracture in postmenopausal women. However, it is unclear whether HRpQCT improves fracture risk prediction enough to justify its use in clinical practice.

The ESR1 (6q25) locus is associated with calcaneal ultrasound parameters and radial volumetric bone mineral density in European men [PDF]
<p><b>Purpose:</b> Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 6q25, which incorporates the oestrogen receptor alpha gene (ESR1), as a quantitative trait locus for areal bone mineral density (BMD(a)) of the hip and lumbar ...

The effect of long term bisphosphonate therapy on trabecular bone strength and microcrack density [PDF]
Objectives Bisphosphonates (BP) are the first-line treatment for preventing fragility fractures. However, concern regarding the efficacy is growing because bisphosphonate is associated with over-suppression of remodelling and accumulation of microcracks.

Trabecular bone score in obese patients with and without diabetes
The link between obesity, diabetes and bone metabolism is quite complex and not entirely clear. Although many clinical and epidemiological studies demonstrate that obesity enhances bone mineral density, its effect on bone microarchitecture is uncertain.
