The development of accurate methods for measuring bone density has made it possible to evaluate more effectively methods for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Calcium supplements are not required in early life for people with a normal dietary intake of the substance, but may reduce the risk of fractures in postmenopausal women.

Osteoporosis is a skeletal condition in which there is a loss of bone mass, evident radiographically by diffuse rarefaction or clinically by overt fractures. It is a widespread disorder of the elderly. Several forms of osteopenia, including osteomalacia, endocrinopathy, and marrow disorders, simulate osteoporosis. In this article, there is a discussion

The Nurse Practitioner, 2005
Bone is a complex organ which contains an organic matrix which serves as scaffolding, includes mineral as calcium distributed in a pattern providing structure and serves as an ion reservoir for the body. Throughout life it dynamically changes in response to changes in activity, body mass, and weight bearing.

Clinics in Liver Disease, 1998
Osteopenia, in the form of osteoporosis, is a common complication of chronic cholestatic liver diseases and, although its cause is poorly understood, it appears to be intimately related to the cholestasis itself. With more patients surviving longer with successful liver transplantation, the clinical significance of such osteopenia has increased, and a ...

Osteoporosis is a disorder of decreased bone mass, microarchitectural deterioration, and fragility fractures. Osteoporosis is widespread and can affect people of all ethnic backgrounds and many older women and men. An essential element in preventing osteoporosis is the achievement of normal peak bone mass.
