Osteoporosis and fragility fracture have been diagnosed, although rarely. The condition, however, is transitory because there is no long-term data supporting the deleterious effect of pregnancy on bone mass or fracture risk. Prevention is limited … Leer más
These in vitro findings point to caveolin-1-dependent VEGFR2 activation as an important mechanism whereby mechanical stimuli promote osteocyte viability
Patients with recurrent calcium nephrolithiasis and fasting hypercalciuria have a higher incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis. They present increased BTMs (mainly resorptive) and up to 30% have hypocitraturia and increased urinary calcium/citrate ratio (>0.25). Medical … Leer más
Endogenous estrogens partially reduce atherogenic burden in female apolipoprotein E-deficient mice. Ovariectomy increases bone resorption, but not under exacerbated proatherogenic conditions induced by high-fat diet. The absence of apolipoprotein E might have an influence on … Leer más
The European Society for Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis (ESCEO) recommends optimal dietary protein intake of 1.0-1.2g/kgbodyweight/d with at least 20-25g of high-quality protein at each main meal, with adequate vitamin D … Leer más
We have demonstrated in vivo a key role of nuclear factor erythroid derived 2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) in the maintenance of bone microarchitecture.
Bone turnover markers, BMD and bone microstructural changes in osteoporosis are opposite to those of OA. These findings justify a less resistant bone with higher risk of fragility fractures in OP patients. These histomorphometric and … Leer más
Switching from tenofovir to abacavir led to a slight improvement in femoral BMD although no differences were detected between groups. Larger studies are necessary before firm recommendations can be made on the discontinuation of tenofovir … Leer más
Although scarce data are available, interesting opportunities are open for a better understanding of the pharmacogenetics of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures. They include the reanalysis of data already available from epidemiological studies and clinical trials, … Leer más
We conclude that patients receiving cinacalcet on dialysis presented similar serum phosphate levels but higher PTH and serum calcium levels during the initial six months after kidney transplantation than cinacalcet non-treated patients. The group previously … Leer más
