The American College of Physicians updated its set of guidelines on the pharmacologic treatment of primary osteoporosis based on current evidence and research.
In effort to improve the risk stratification of bone mass screening in women, the authors of a recent study examined how bone mineral density may be used to predict cardiovascular disease events such as...
To gain more insight into the mean femoral neck‐bone mineral density among older Asian women in the United States, researchers assessed measurements by ethnicity and age among Filipino, Chinese, and...
Although body mass index appears to be associated with benefits to bone microarchitecture, these benefits are not sustained after adjusting for body weight, according to the results of a recent study.
Patients with psoriatic arthritis have longer duration of disease and take higher doses of glucocorticoids than patients with rheumatic arthritis. What does new research show about the relative bone mineral...
It is unclear why patients with multiple sclerosis have reduced bone mineral density. Authors of a new study investigated the factors that may cause this decrease and found several independent contributors....
