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
The European Society of AIDS (EACS), and other societies, have included guidance on management of osteoporosis in HIV-infected patients emphasizing the identification of patients with low bone mass. Supplementation of calcium and vitamin D and … Leer más
Bone. 2014 Sep;66:146-54 These results demonstrate that RANKL produced by osteocytes contributes to the increased bone resorption and the bone loss caused by secondary hyperparathyroidism, strengthening the evidence that osteocytes are an important target cell … Leer más
JBMR 2014; 29(9) 1993-2003 The results suggest monitoring binding kinetics based on fluorescently labeled bisphosphonates represents a highly sensitive, site-specific method for monitoring changes in bone mineral deposition with the potential for translation into human … Leer más
Bone. 2014 Sep 28;69C:139-147. doi: 10.1016/j.bone.2014.09.016. [Epub ahead of print] This study examined the role of NPP1 in osteocytes, osteoclasts and cortical bone, using a mouse model lacking NPP1 (Enpp1−/−) he cortical bone from Enpp1−/− … Leer más
J Bone Miner Res. 2014 Oct;29(10):2224-9. doi: 10.1002/jbmr.2248. In conclusion, our study shows that lung cancer screening participants have a substantial vertebral fracture burden. Fractures are more common in current smokers, who also have lower … Leer más
J Bone Miner Res. 2014 Oct;29(10):2131-40. doi: 10.1002/jbmr.2293 In this invited perspective, we highlight the magnitude of the problem across biomedical fields and address the relevance of these concerns to the field of bone and … Leer más
