Quantitation of individual risk for osteoporotic fracture.
Dr. Balducci has presented a timely and useful overview of bone health in elderly patients undergoing cancer treatment. This topic has important implications, not only within geriatric oncology but also throughout the entire age spectrum. Dr. Balducci’s focus on the elderly population is especially relevant, as this group is at particularly high risk for bone complications over the course of ca...
متن کاملSeverity of obstructive airway disease and risk of osteoporotic fracture.
The use of inhaled corticosteroids has been associated with a dose-related increased risk of fracture. This may be related to systemic absorption. However, several studies have found that patients with more severe reductions in pulmonary function had reduced bone mineral density, independent of inhaled corticosteroids. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between disease...
متن کاملPhysical activity and osteoporotic hip fracture risk in men.
BACKGROUND Physical activity has been related to reduced risk of osteoporotic hip fractures, but the evidence among men is weak. OBJECTIVE To determine the association between baseline leisure physical activity and future risk of osteoporotic hip fracture in men. METHODS At baseline in 1975 our prospective study cohort included 3,262 men who were 44 years or older and did not have chronic d...
متن کاملHomocysteine levels and the risk of osteoporotic fracture.
BACKGROUND Very high plasma homocysteine levels are characteristic of homocystinuria, a rare autosomal recessive disease accompanied by the early onset of generalized osteoporosis. We therefore hypothesized that mildly elevated homocysteine levels might be related to age-related osteoporotic fractures. METHODS We studied the association between circulating homocysteine levels and the risk of ...
متن کاملEvaluating osteoporotic fracture risk with the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool in Chinese patients with rheumatoid arthritis
This study aims to evaluate the discriminative and predictive capacity of the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) to determine the 10-year risk of osteoporotic fracture in Chinese rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients.This study included 168 RA patients and 168 healthy individuals as controls. The Chinese mainland FRAX model was applied to calculate the 10-year risk of osteoporotic fractures, def...
