Impact of Denosumab Adherence on Renal Function and Mortality Rates in Type 2 Diabetes Patients With Osteoporosis

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures, and denosumab, a non‐kidney‐excreted antiresorptive medication, represents a viable alternative to bisphosphonates for osteoporosis treatment in patients with T2DM. This study aimed to investigate the association among denosumab adherence, renal
