Arquivos Brasileiros de Endocrinologia & Metabologia, 2006 Paget's disease of bone is a focal disorder of bone remodeling accompanied initially by an increase in bone resorption, followed by a disorganized and excessive formation of bone, leading to pain, fractures and deformities. It exhibits a marked geographical variation in its prevalence. In Brazil it predominantly affects persons of European descent. The

BMJ, 1981 The essential requirement for effective treatment of Paget’s disease of bone is that the characteristic abnormality of bone remodelling is predictably corrected without the occurrence of significant side effects. Although the ideal agent is not currently available, appropriate use of the calcitonins or diphosphonates goes a long way to achieving this ...

General analysis of mathematical models for bone remodeling
, 2010 Bone remodeling is regulated by pathways controlling the interplay of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. In this work, we apply the method of generalized modelling to systematically analyse a large class of models of bone remodeling.
