Recommendations for raloxifene use in daily clinical practice in the Swiss setting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background/aim: Raloxifene is the first selective estrogen receptor modulator that has been approved for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women in Europe and in the US. Although raloxifene reduces the risk of invasive breast

Assessing P1NP/β‐CTX as Potential Risk Factors Associated With Different Subtypes of Fragile Hip Fracture in Elderly Patients

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
By exploring the correlation between P1NP/β‐CTX and the subtypes of hip fractures, this study attempts to establish these two bone turnover markers as predictive indicators and postoperative complication monitors for such common fractures in the elderly.

A critical structured review of economic evaluations of interventions for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis [PDF]

open access: yes
Osteoporosis is a major cause of morbidity, mortality and resource cost amongst the elderly population. Hip fracture is the most serious of the osteoporotic fractures, with approximately 10-20% of patients dying within six months of sustaining a fracture.

Bone biology in aging periodontal and peri‐implant tissues

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontal disease is an age‐related chronic inflammatory condition leading to tooth loss. Dental implants are an option for replacement of lost teeth in older adults. However, age‐related changes to alveolar bone may have pathological implications for its role in supporting the dentition and dental implants.

Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry diagnostic discordance between Z scores and T scores in a young Iranian population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) is considered the gold standard for non-invasive measurement of bone mass. T-scores and Z-scores are used to present the results of bone mass. The present study was designed to evaluate the discordance

Population level data on aging in periodontal and peri‐implant health—Aging is not a contraindication for periodontal or peri‐implant therapy

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Global population aging is leading to a greater retention of natural teeth into later life and an increasing prevalence of dental implant therapy. Although advanced age has traditionally been regarded as a risk factor for compromised outcomes, population level evidence remains lacking.

Influence of oestradiol on exercise induced muscular damage and heart rate variability in a non‐trained healthy population

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluates in non‐trained healthy women the influence of oestradiol (E2) on exercise induced muscular damage (EIMD) and performance. Thirty‐six young healthy women performed a step‐exercise until exhaustion, assessing the number of repetitions, pain perception and well‐being (questionnaires, 15 min and at 48 h post‐exercise), blood ...
