Among 350 adults with the condition, also known as brittle bone disease, the incidence of image-confirmed fractures didn't ...

Study finds premenopausal bone mineral density (BMD), postmenopausal BMD, and rate of lumbar spine BMD decline to be risk factors for fracture.

Differences in bone density and FRAX fracture risk scores among Black and Asian women yield greater discordance in fracture risk estimation compared with White women.

Sept 8, 2005 Sydney, Australia - The rate of bone loss at the femoral neck predicts fracture risk independently of baseline bone-mineral density (BMD) and age, according to Dr Tuan V Nguyen ...

The addition of zoledronic acid to aromatase inhibitors is associated with improved bone mineral density, but not with an effect on clinically-meaningful end points such as fractures. The oncology ...

Cortical, trabecular bone measures at the distal radius and tibia, as measured by high-resolution peripheral quantitative CT, can help predict fracture risk when BMD alone shows no osteoporosis.

AUSTIN, Texas – One year of romosozumab (Evenity) followed by 1 year of denosumab (Prolia, Xgeva) was associated with improved bone mineral density (BMD) and lower fracture incidence compared ...

Antiosteoporotic medications reduce fracture risk regardless of initial bone mineral density (BMD), according to study results published in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research.

Bone mineral density at the femoral neck and total hip is a potential surrogate for fracture risk in clinical trials of osteoporosis drugs, according to findings presented at the American Society ...

Validation of surrogate endpoints for fracture could potentially lead to shorter and less expensive clinical trials, possibly spurring innovations of new drugs and procedures which might otherwise ...

Increased genetic risk for Graves’ disease, autoimmune thyroiditis or hyperthyroidism is not associated with low bone mineral density or fracture risk, according to an analysis of UK Biobank data.
