Dysmobility syndrome: a paradigm shift in fracture prevention
Bolʹ, Sustavy, Pozvonočnik, 2017 Fragility fractures engender major healthcare cost, reduce independence/quality and life and increase mortality risk. Despite availability of multiple therapies to reduce risk for future fracture, few patients are treated even following hip fracture ...

Lumbar Bone Mineral Density Estimation from Chest X-ray Images: Anatomy-aware Attentive Multi-ROI Modeling [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Osteoporosis is a common chronic metabolic bone disease often under-diagnosed and under-treated due to the limited access to bone mineral density (BMD) examinations, e.g. via Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA). This paper proposes a method to predict BMD from Chest X-ray (CXR), one of the most commonly accessible and low-cost medical imaging ...

Generalised Recurrence Plot Analysis for Spatial Data [PDF]
Physics Letters A, 360(4-5), 2007, 545-551, 2006 Recurrence plot based methods are highly efficient and widely accepted tools for the investigation of time series or one-dimensional data. We present an extension of the recurrence plots and their quantifications in order to study recurrent structures in higher-dimensional spatial data. The capability of this extension is illustrated on prototypical 2D

The changing rule of human bone density with aging based on a novel definition and mensuration of bone density with computed tomography [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Osteoporosis and fragility fractures have emerged as major public health concerns in an aging population. However, measuring age-related changes in bone density using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry has limited personalized risk assessment due to susceptibility to interference from various factors.

Once-yearly zoledronic acid for treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2007 BACKGROUND A single infusion of intravenous zoledronic acid decreases bone turnover and improves bone density at 12 months in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. We assessed the effects of annual infusions of zoledronic acid on fracture risk during a

Current Opinion in Endocrinology & Diabetes, 1995 Osteoporosis in men has become better recognized as an important health problem, particularly in the aged. Nevertheless, the knowledge available remains limited and fragmentary. Many clinical decisions must be based on extrapolations from the more complete understanding of osteoporosis in women.
