An accurate diagnosis of osteoporosis and a proper treatment are today recognized to be the most important facts for prevention and for a correct arrangement and treatment of fragility fractures. In the text the Authors describe a case of severe osteoporosis aggravated by 2 femur fractures and 2 periprosthetic fractures occurred in 2 months. In such cases the orthopaedic surgeon needs to formul...
Osteoporotic fractures have become one of the most prevalent trauma conditions seen daily in clinical practice [1]. They are also known as ‘fragi lity fractures’ and they are defined as those occurring after a low-energy trauma, traditionally interpreted as a fall from a standing height or less [2]. Contributing factors are the susceptibility to falls and underlying osteoporosis, which is chara...
Prevention of bone fractures is one goal of therapy for patients with chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD), as indicated by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines. CKD patients, including those on hemodialysis, are at higher risk for fractures and fracture-related death compared to people with normal kidney function. However, few clinicians focus on this ...
OBJECTIVE To determine comparative fracture risk in HIV patients compared with uninfected controls. DESIGN A randomised cross-sectional study assessing bone mineral density (BMD), fracture history and risk factors in the 2 groups. SETTING Hospital Outpatients. SUBBBJECTS 222 HIV infected patients and an equal number of age-matched controls. ASSESSMENTS Fracture risk factors were assesse...
The genetic architecture of skeletal biomechanical performance has tremendous potential to advance our knowledge of the biological mechanisms that drive variation in skeletal fragility and osteoporosis risk. Research using traditional approaches that focus on specific gene pathways is increasing our understanding of how and to what degree those pathways may affect population-level variation in ...
Objective To determine the functional morbidity and mortality after fragility hip fracture and compare the mortality with three other common diseases. Methods Data were collected from patients admitted to King Fahd Hospital of the University, AlKhobar from January 2010 to December 2014. Demographic data included the preoperative American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score as assessed by t...
The link between type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) and osteoporosis, identified decades ago, has gained attention in recent years. While a number of cellular mechanisms have been postulated to mediate this association, it is now established that defects in osteoblast differentiation and activity are the main culprits underlying bone fragility in DM1. Other contributing factors include an accumulat...
BACKGROUND Rheumatoid arthritis patients are at higher risk of developing comorbidities. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of major comorbidities in Chinese rheumatoid arthritis patients. We also aimed to identify factors associated with these comorbidities. METHODS Baseline demographic, clinical characteristics and comorbidity data from RA patients enrolled in t...
