This dissertation research studied osteoporotic fractures both in the general population and among the patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The thesis shows that there was a recent declining trend in osteoporotic fractures in Denmark. Based on these findings, oral bisphosphonates have no beneficial effect on reducing the number of deaths in patients ...

Low-energy extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) improves metaphyseal fracture healing in an osteoporotic rat model. [PDF]
As result of the current demographic changes, osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures are becoming an increasing social and economic burden. In this experimental study, extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), was evaluated as a treatment option for the
