Osteoporotic vertebral fractures

Neurosurgical Focus, 2001
Osteoporosis is a significant public health problem. Vertebral fractures are the most common fracture in patients with osteoporosis, occurring in approximately 750,000 cases each year. The fractures may cause acute or chronic pain, reduce the quality of life, and shorten life expectancy.

Mechanical behavior of osteoporotic bone at sub-lamellar length scales [PDF]

, 2015
Osteoporosis is a disease known to promote bone fragility but the effect on the mechanical properties of bone material, which is independent of geometric effects, is particularly unclear.

A Periosteum‐Inspired Janus Piezoelectric Scaffold Using Bioenergetic‐Driven H‐Type Vascularization for Diabetic Bone Regeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A periosteum‐inspired Janus piezoelectric scaffold converts micromechanical forces into electrical signals and synergizes with controlled resveratrol release. This dual action reprograms endothelial metabolism, drives H‑type vessel formation, and restores bone–vessel coupling in diabetic bone defects.

Reduced Circulating Levels of miR-491-5p and miR-485-3p Are Associated with the Occurrence of Vertebral Fractures in Postmenopausal Women with Osteoporosis

Genetics Research, 2022
Objective. Postmenopausal women experiences osteoporotic structural damage and bone fragility resulting from reduced bone formation and increased bone resorption. Osteoporosis frequently affects the vertebral column and causes compression fractures. This

Treatment of Osteoporotic Fractures of the Spine [PDF]

Archives of Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology, 2007
Mogućnosti Liječenja Osteoporotskih Prijeloma KralježniceOsteoporotski prijelomi kralježnice dva do tri puta su učetaliji nego prijelomi kuka, posebice u žena. Vertebralni osteoporotski kompresijski prijelomi tipično uključuju srednju i donju torakalnu kralježnicu i torakolumbalni prijelaz. Klinička slika očituje se u akutnom stanju u obliku nagle boli
