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.

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

Postmenopausal osteoporosis coexisting with sarcopenia: the role and mechanisms of estrogen.

Journal of Endocrinology, 2023
Estrogens (estradiol, estriol, and estrone) are important hormones that directly and indirectly regulate the metabolism and function of bone and skeletal muscle via estrogen receptors.

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.

Interaction between bone and immune cells: Implications for postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Seminars in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Postmenopausal osteoporosis is a systemic disease characterized by the loss of bone mass and increased bone fracture risk largely resulting from significantly reduced levels of the hormone estrogen after menopause.

Relationship between Change in Bone Mineral Density of Lumbar Spine and Risk of New Vertebral and Nonvertebral Fractures: A Meta‐Analysis

Orthopaedic Surgery, 2022
Studies have shown that the change in lumbar spine bone mineral density with different osteoporosis drugs had a beneficial effect on the frequency of new vertebral and nonvertebral fractures in postmenopausal females, but their results were conflicting ...
