J Bone Miner Res. 2015 Mar;30(3):488-97- Using different osteotropic human prostate cancer cell lines, the influence of WNT5A overexpression and knock-down on proliferation, migration, and apoptosis was assessed. In vitro, WNT5A overexpression induced prostate cancer … Leer más
The choice of normative pediatric reference database changes spine bone mineral density z-scores but not the relationship between bone mineral density and prevalent vertebral fractures
J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2015 Mar;100(3):1018-27. doi: 10.1210/jc.2014-3096. Epub 2014 Dec 11. Although the use of a LSBMD Z-score threshold as part of the definition of osteoporosis in a child with VF does not appear … Leer más
Connexin 43 channels are essential for normal bone structure and osteocyte viability
J Bone Miner Res. 2015 Mar;30(3):436-48. doi: 10.1002/jbmr.2374. These findings suggest that osteocytic Cx43 channels play distinctive roles in the bone; hemichannels play a dominant role in regulating osteocyte survival, endocortical bone resorption, and periosteal … Leer más
Serum uric acid is associated with quantitative ultrasound parameters in men: data from the Camargo cohor
Higher serum uric acid levels in men older than 50 years are positively associated with QUS parameters. These data might suggest a better bone quality in men with elevated serum uric acid values.
A 7-year randomized, placebo-controlled trial assessing the long-term efficacy and safety of bazedoxifene in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis: effects on bone density and fracture
At 7 years, the cumulative incidences of new vertebral fractures were significantly lower in the bazedoxifene (6.4%) and bazedoxifene 20 mg (7.6%) groups than in the placebo group (9.9%); the relative risk reductions were 36.5% … Leer más
Use of osteoporosis medications after hospitalization for hip fracture: a cross-national study
Regardless of differences in health care delivery systems and medication reimbursement plans, the use of osteoporosis medications for the secondary prevention of osteoporotic fracture was low. Adherence to osteoporosis treatment was also suboptimal with the … Leer más
Adjusting Fracture Probability by Trabecular Bone Score
Calcif Tissue Int (2015) 96:500–509 DOI 10.1007/s00223-015-9980-x They have demonstrated that lumbar spine texture analysis using TBS is a risk factor for osteoporotic fracture and also for risk of death. The predictive ability of TBS … Leer más
Increased risk of stroke among hip fracture patients: a nationwide cohort study
Osteoporos Int. 2015 Feb;26(2):645-52. doi: 10.1007/s00198-014-2919-7. Hip fracture is independently associated with increased risk of developing stroke. In addition, the risk of stroke following incidence of hip fracture is more prominent in younger patients, men, … Leer más
Serum bicarbonate and bone mineral density in US adults
Am J Kidney Dis. 2015 Feb;65(2):240-8. doi:10.1053/j.ajkd.2014.07.007. Lower serum bicarbonate levels are associated with lower BMD in US adults. Further studies should examine whether serum bicarbonate levels should be incorporated into the diagnostic assessment and … Leer más
