Osteoporosis Prediction Using VGG16 and ResNet50
Low bone mass and structural degradation are the hallmarks of osteoporosis, a disorder that increases the risk of fractures, especially in the elderly. For prompt intervention and fracture prevention, early identification is essential.

Osteoporosis or Low Bone Mass in Older Adults: United States, 2017-2018.
Osteoporosis is the most common bone disease and is characterized by weakening of bone tissue, bone structure, and strength, and may lead to increased risk of fractures (1). Low bone mass increases the risk of developing osteoporosis (2).

Is there a role for vitamin C in preventing osteoporosis and fractures?:A review of the potential underlying mechanisms and current epidemiological evidence [PDF]
Osteoporosis and related fractures are a major global health issue, but there are few preventative strategies. Previously reported associations between higher intakes of fruits and vegetables and skeletal health have been suggested to be partly ...

The Influence of Strontium on Bone Tissue Metabolism and Its Application in Osteoporosis Treatment
Osteoporosis is a chronic disease characterized by low bone mass caused by increased bone turnover and impaired bone microarchitecture. In treatment, we use antiresorptive or anabolic drugs, which usually have a unidirectional effect, i.e., they inhibit ...

Osteoporosis in Men: A Review of an Underestimated Bone Condition
Osteoporosis is called the ‘silent disease’ because, although it does not give significant symptoms when it is not complicated, can cause fragility fractures, with serious consequences and death.
