Bisphosphonates and bone quality [PDF]
BoneKEy Reports, 2014 Bisphosphonates (BPs) are bone-avid compounds used as first-line medications for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. They are also used in other skeletal pathologies such as Paget's and metastatic bone disease. They effectively reduce osteoclast viability and also activity in the resorptive phase of bone remodelling and help preserve bone ...

Age-related vessel calcification at distal extremities is a risk factor of osteoporosis
Journal of Orthopaedic Translation, 2014 We conducted a cohort study to investigate if the vessel calcifications (VCs) found in the distal extremities are an index of low bone mass at multiskeletal sites. A total of 332 healthy women aged 41–80 years were recruited for bone mineral content (BMC)
