Epidemiology of Osteoporotic Fractures

open access: yesHormone Research in Paediatrics, 2000
Osteoporosis constitutes a major public health problem through its association with age-related fractures. These fractures typically occur at the hip, spine and distal forearm. It has been estimated that the lifetime risk of a hip fracture in white women is 17.5%, with a comparable risk in men of 6%.

Osteoporotic Fractures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
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]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
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
