Fatigue in adults with Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Background Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is characterized by bone fragility, and features such as blue sclerae, dentinogenesis imperfecta, hearing loss, ligamentous laxity and short stature can be present.

Management of Osteogenesis Imperfecta [PDF]
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is the term used to describe a group of rare inherited skeletal disorders characterized by a greatly increased risk of fragility fractures (1). Mutations in several genes can cause OI but the condition is most commonly caused

This condition was first described by Vorlik in 1849. Up to 1906. 140 cases had been reported. So many names have been used in the description of bone abnormalities in infants that an uncertainty remains as to just what is meant in some of these descriptions.

Dissecting the phenotypic variability of osteogenesis imperfecta
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heterogeneous family of collagen type I-related diseases characterized by bone fragility. OI is most commonly caused by single-nucleotide substitutions that replace glycine residues or exon splicing defects in the COL1A1

Osteogenesis Imperfecta: Mechanisms and signaling pathways connecting classical and rare OI types.
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous skeletal dysplasia characterized by bone fragility, growth deficiency and skeletal deformity. Previously known to be caused by defects in type I collagen, the major protein of
