The results suggest that deletions in the 6p25.1 locus may predispose to higher risk of fracture in a subset of populations of European origin; larger and geographically restricted studies will be needed to confirm this … Leer más
The impact on the population of the different recommendations is enormous, varying from 17% to 80% of the population over 50 who would be tested Although in men it seems that a clinical rationale exists … Leer más
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
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
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
Denosumab increased significantly bone mass in all three dual X-ray absorptiometry standard sites, while alendronate did not at total hip. No benefit was observed in men previously treated with alendronate who switched to denosumab treatment. … Leer más
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass increased circulating osteopontin levels, while they remained unaltered after sleeve gastrectomy. The increase in osteopontin levels after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass could be related to the increased bone resorption in relation to its … Leer más
Patients with chronic hepatitis C have low bone mass associated with increased bone resorption, and some relationship can be expected between serum aminotransferase levels and the degree of bone mass loss. Bone mass may be … Leer más
