Genetic studies of osteoporosis in Malta : a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Osteoporosis is a complex metabolic disease with a strong genetic component which results in a decrease in bone mineral density and deterioration in the microarchitecture of bone, leading to an increased risk of fractures.

Biomechanical Computed Tomography analysis (BCT) for clinical assessment of osteoporosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The surgeon general of the USA defines osteoporosis as "a skeletal disorder characterized by compromised bone strength, predisposing to an increased risk of fracture." Measuring bone strength, Biomechanical Computed Tomography analysis (BCT), namely ...

Advanced Oral Delivery Systems for Nutraceuticals

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Emerging delivery technologies are explored to overcome barriers to oral nutraceutical absorption. Traditional carriers are compared with novel platforms including biodegradable polymers, MOFs, MPNs, and 3D printing. These systems enhance bioavailability, control release, and enable personalized nutrition.

Vertebral HU value and the pectoral muscle index based on chest CT can be used to opportunistically screen for osteoporosis

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Existing studies have shown that computed tomography (CT) attenuation and skeletal muscle tissue are strongly associated with osteoporosis; however, few studies have examined whether vertebral HU values and the pectoral muscle index (PMI ...

Si Inhibited Osteoclastogenesis: The Role of Fe and the Fenton Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Silicate (Si) inhibition of osteoclastogenesis, is mediated by Fe. Si chemical interactions with Fe inhibit the Fenton reaction and intercellular ROS availability. This reduction in ROS availability inhibits osteoclastogenesis. The addition of Fe, in Si‐inhibited osteoclast cultures, restores the Fenton reaction, and osteoclastogenesis.

The Effects of Denosumab Treatment on Pain and Function Beyond Bone Density in Patients With Postmenopausal Osteoporosis: A Prospective Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery
Objective Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) leads to bone loss, fragility, and fractures, causing pain and reduced function. Effective treatment should improve bone mineral density (BMD), prevent fractures, and enhance quality of life.

Once-yearly zoledronic acid for treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

open access: yesNew 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
