BACKGROUND Bone quantity, quality, and turnover contribute to whole bone strength. Although bone mineral density, or bone quantity, is associated with increased fracture risk, less is known about bone quality. Various conditions, including disorders of mineral homeostasis, disorders in bone remodeling, collagen disorders, and drugs, affect bone quality. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES The objectives of th...
Fragility curves represent the probabilities that structural damages, under various levels of seismic excitation, will exceed the specified damage states by means of earthquake intensity damage relations. Conceptual aspects related to seismic vulnerability, damage and risk evaluation are discussed first, together with a short review of the most widely used possibilities for the seismic evaluati...
OBJECTIVE To determine whether drugs used in treatment of cardiovascular diseases (CVD-drugs), including hypertension, increase the risk of fragility fractures in individuals above the age of 65 years. DESIGN Retrospective nationwide cohort study. SETTING Danish nationwide national registers. PARTICIPANTS All individuals in Denmark ≥ 65 years who used specified CVD-drugs in the study peri...
background : there is no data available regarding vitamin d status among patients with hip fractures in iran. this study aimed to determine whether postmenopausal women with low trauma hip fractures have lower vitamin d levels comparing to the control group. materials and methods: vitamin d (25-ohd) level and the prevalence of hypovitaminosis d among 73 postmenopausal women with fracture of t...
We present a 44-year-old female patient with recurrent fragility fractures including an intercondylar femoral fracture and with normal planar bone densitometry. Diagnosis of hypophosphatasia was suggested by low volumetric cortical bone mineral density and laboratory findings. DNA sequencing revealed heterozygous mutations in the exons 5, 6 and 9 of the ALPL gene, thus confirming the suspected ...
Osteoporosis or osteopenia occurs in about 44 million Americans, resulting in 1.5 million fragility fractures per year. The consequences of these fractures include pain, disability, depression, loss of independence, and increased mortality. The burden to the healthcare system, in terms of cost and resources, is tremendous, with an estimated direct annual USA healthcare expenditure of about $17 ...
