The prevalence and treatment rate trends of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
PLoS ONE, 2023 BackgroundTo evaluate the prevalence and treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis in recent years, analyze differences between the prevalence diagnosed by physicians and the prevalence detected by bone mineral density (BMD), and observe the ...

Risk factor identification and prevention of osteoporosis in the primary care setting [PDF]
, 2006 On one of her visits, MB Borg, a 54 year old lady, showed concern about her risk of developing osteoporosis. Lately, she had been listening to a series of radio and TV programmes on this matter where particular emphasis was put on bone density scans. She

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Osteoporosis from long‐term glucocorticoid (GIOP) use elevates susceptibility to fracture. This study shows GCs impair ascorbic acid (AA) metabolism in osteoblasts, collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix integrity. AA enhanced collagen biochemical and mechanical properties and restored osteoblast and endothelial function. These findings underscore

Gene polymorphisms in primary biliary cirrhosis: association with the disease and hepatic osteopathy [PDF]
, 2007 Genetic factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis, a common disorder in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). Estrogen receptor-alpha gene (ER- ), vitamin-D-receptor gene (VDR) and IL-1-receptor-antagonist gene (IL-1RN) are all ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.xx xx. ABSTRACT Osseointegration of orthopedic and dental implants is influenced by local and systemic factors, including their physicochemical surface properties and the patient's overall health status. Titanium and its alloys have been a longstanding standard for bone implants due to their innate biocompatibility and mechanical properties.

Measurement of bone quality in growing male rats using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry and bone ash content : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Animal Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2001 Growing male rats have been considered and used as a model for bone growth and prevention of osteoporosis because of their high bone turnover and demand for calcium. Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) is a useful tool for identifying minimal changes

Serum markers of bone fragility in type-2 diabetes mellitus [PDF]
, 2019 Patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have normal or increased bone mineral density (BMD) but despite that, they are characterized by an increased hip and vertebral fracture risk that involves the alteration of bone quality and not the reduction ...
