Diphosphonates in the treatment of osteoporosis
Etidronate disodium has been shown to increase bone density and decrease fracture rates, but it may have more important applications in the prevention of bone loss.

This paper describes the syntheses and characterization of two new copper(II) diphosphonates: [NH3(CH2)2NH3]2[Cu2(hedp)2]·H2O (1) and [NH3CH(CH3)CH2NH3]2[Cu2(hedp)2] (2) (hedp = 1-hydroxyethylidenediphosphonate).

Effects of metallic ions and diphosphonates on inhibition of pericardial bioprosthetic tissue calcification and associated alkaline phosphatase activity [PDF]
This study focused on the association of extrinsic alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity with both early and advanced calcification of glutaraldehyde-pretreated bovine pericardial bioprosthetic (GPBP) tissue, and the inhibition of both calcification and AP ...

Improvement in the deformity of the face in Paget's disease treated with diphosphonates
We studied nine patients with Paget's disease affecting the skull or facial bones, who were subsequently treated with either dichloromethylene diphosphonate (clodronate) or ethylene-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonate (etidronate). Long-term treatment induced a

A novel styrenic monomer bearing gem‐bisphosphonate groups is synthesized in a single step. The nitroxide‐mediated (co)polymerization of this monomer proceeds in a well‐controlled manner, yielding bisphosphonate‐functionalized (co)polymers with low dispersity.

Radiation Dose and Risk in the Radiological Investigation of Suspected Non‐Accidental Injury (NAI)
This study is a retrospective analysis of 362 skeletal surveys performed over a 5‐year period for children under 5 years of age for suspected non‐accidental injury. We present effective dose data and the associated risks of radiation exposure for initial and follow‐up examinations.
