Postmenopausal osteoporosis

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2016
Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disorder that is characterized by low bone mass and micro-architectural deterioration of bone tissue. Fractures of the proximal femur, the vertebrae and the distal radius are the most frequent osteoporotic fractures, although most fractures in the elderly are probably at least partly related to bone fragility.

The relationship between the monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio and osteoporosis in postmenopausal females with T2DM: A retrospective study in Chinese population

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
IntroductionThe risk of fragility fractures is increased in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Many reports indicate that inflammatory and immune responses are associated with osteoporosis and osteopenia. The monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR)

Botanicals in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis [PDF]

Nutrients, 2021
Osteoporosis is a systemic bone disease characterized by reduced bone mass and the deterioration of bone microarchitecture leading to bone fragility and an increased risk of fractures. Conventional anti-osteoporotic pharmaceutics are effective in the treatment and prophylaxis of osteoporosis, however they are associated with various side effects that ...

Asia–pacific consensus on osteoporotic fracture prevention in postmenopausal women with low bone mass or osteoporosis but no fragility fractures

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2023
Postmenopausal women are at significant risk for osteoporotic fractures due to their rapid bone loss. Half of all postmenopausal women will get an osteoporosis-related fracture over their lifetime, with 25% developing a spine deformity and 15% developing

Identification of miR-194-5p as a potential biomarker for postmenopausal osteoporosis [PDF]

PeerJ, 2015
The incidence of osteoporosis is high in postmenopausal women due to altered estrogen levels and continuous calcium loss that occurs with aging. Recent studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the development of osteoporosis.
