Within the limits of this study, our findings suggest that the intake of simvastatin is associated with increasing serum OPG concentrations and this could have a protective effect against bone destruction and periodontal clinical attachment … Leer más
Bone mineral density was similar between HIV-infected patients aged 20-30 years than in age- and gender-matched controls. However, lower femoral T-scores and higher rate of osteopenia and osteoporosis were seen in HIV-infected men. Therapy with … Leer más
Iron deficiency is related with higher bone resorption in young women. Consumption of a dairy product that supplies 5 μg/day of vitamin D3 reduces bone turnover and increases circulating 25OHD to nearly reach an optimal vitamin … Leer más
The incidence of fractures after spinal cord injury is high, with severity and time since spinal cord injury being the main determinants for their development. Fractures were frequently associated with clinical complications. However, the use … Leer más
HIV infection is associated with an almost 3-fold increase in fracture risk compared to that of uninfected age and gender-matched uninfected patients. HIV patients are also at an almost 9-fold higher risk of hip fracture. … Leer más
Although the VFA approach showed a lower than expected prevalence of VF in our cohort, its association with clinical and densitometric parameters may be useful to identify women at risk for developing fragility fractures and … Leer más
A short-term whole body vibration therapy is not enough to cause any changes on bone mineral content or bone mineral density and it only produces a slight variation on bone structure among elderly people. Autor: Gómez-Cabello … Leer más
We provide strong and significant evidence from both linkage and association analyses that the SOST gene may affect the strength of the femoral shaft. Future investigations should study the relationship between bone mass formation and … Leer más
After examining results for 10 different bone fracture sites, advanced age appeared the single best possibility for uniting several different sites, resulting in an empirically based composite fracture risk model. Several fracture prediction models that … Leer más
In our series, the plasma rich in growth factors showed better results than the teriparatide in the treatment of recurrent oral bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis. The aim of this study is to describe and compare the evolution … Leer más
