Once-daily injections of parathyroid hormone or its amino-terminal fragments increase bone formation and mass without causing hypercalcemia, but their effects on fractures are unknown.
The osteoblast-derived protein osteocalcin has recently been shown to affect adiposity and glucose homeostasis in mice, suggesting that the skeleton influences energy metabolism through an endocrine mechanism. aim of this study was investigate relationship between plasma parameters reflecting fat mass humans. Fasting levels osteocalcin, glucose, serum insulin, lipids were analyzed elderly men (75.3 +/- 3.2 yr age) Gothenburg part (all subjects, n = 1010; nondiabetic, 857; diabetic, 153) MrOS...
Abstract The 3-year FREEDOM trial assessed the efficacy and safety of 60 mg denosumab every 6 months for treatment postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Participants who completed were eligible to enter an extension continue evaluation up 10 years. For results presented here, from group had 2 more years (long-term group) those placebo exposure (cross-over group). We report bone turnover markers (BTMs), mineral density (BMD), fracture rates, safety. A total 4550 enrolled in (2343 long-term;...
Abstract The role of androgens for bone health in elderly men is unclear. We show that free testosterone within the normal range a predictor BMD at predominantly cortical sites and previous osteoporosis-related fractures Swedish men. Introduction: Osteoporosis-related constitute major concern not only women but also Previous studies have clearly shown serum levels estradiol are associated with BMD, whereas more conflicting data been presented regarding predictive value (T) aim this study was...
The Fracture Reduction Evaluation of Denosumab in Osteoporosis Every 6 Months (FREEDOM) extension is evaluating the long-term efficacy and safety denosumab for up to 10 years.The objective study was report results from first 3 years extension, representing exposure.This a multicenter, international, open-label 4550 women.Women FREEDOM group received more total (long-term) women placebo (crossover).Bone turnover markers (BTMs), bone mineral density (BMD), fracture, data are...
