Melatonin is produced not only by the pineal gland but by cells of the bone marrow. Moreover, melatonin is known to promote osteogenic differentiation in several cell line models and in multipotential bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Fatty acids have been independently shown to direct such cells
OBJECTIVE
To compare the effects of alendronate and raloxifene on lumbar bone mineral density (BMD), bone turnover, and lipid metabolism in elderly women with osteoporosis.
METHODS
One hundred twenty-two postmenopausal women with osteoporosis (mean age: 69.4 years) were randomly divided into 2
An inverse relationship between bone marrow (BM) adiposity and bone mass has been described in different physiological and pathological conditions, including osteoporosis (OP). In osteoporotic patients, lower bone mass density is indeed associated with higher BM fat content, suggesting a potential
The study evaluates efficacy and safety of recombinant human parathyroid hormone (1-34) [rhPTH (1-34)] and alendronate (ALN) in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.Totally 65 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis were divided into 2 groups. PTH group received daily subcutaneous injection
This study aimed to determine whether apparently healthy, untreated postmenopausal women at risk of osteoporosis relative to nonmenopausal women are concomitantly at risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in terms of various aspects of lifestyle, personality, body shape and composition, and blood
OBJECTIVE
Osteoporosis poses a great threat to the aging society. Hypochlorhydric or achlorhydric conditions are risk factors for osteoporosis. Atrophic gastritis also decreases gastric acid production; however, the role of atrophic gastritis as a related factor for osteoporosis is unclear. We
It has been well established that raloxifene (RLX) has beneficial effects on bone primarily in Caucasian women. However, to date, there is a dearth of data for Japanese postmenopausal women. In this study, we prospectively evaluated the effects of RLX on bone and lipid metabolism in fifty Japanese
This study investigated association between lipids and homocysteine (Hcy) with bone mineral density (BMD) in young women as opposed to previous studies on elderly women. HDL, triglyceride, and Hcy are significantly associated with BMD in young women and tobacco and alcohol consumption have no effect
UNASSIGNED
To investigate the risk factors for osteoporosis in male Taiwanese patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
UNASSIGNED
This cross-sectional study evaluated male COPD outpatients and age-matched male subjects at a regional teaching hospital. The following data were
Background: Recently, an increasing number of studies have focused on the extra-gastrointestinal effects of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), including metabolic syndrome, fatty liver, and rheumatic and skin diseases. Osteoporosis is an
By adopting the extension approaches of Mendelian randomization, we successfully detected and prioritized the potential causal risk factors for BMD traits, which might provide us novel insights for treatment and intervention into bone-related complex traits and diseases.
BACKGROUND
Raloxifene has been approved for prevention and treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis in Caucasian women. It also has some positive effects on serum lipids in Caucasians. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of raloxifene hydrochloride on lumbar spine and total hip
Purpose: Osteoporosis (Op) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are two common disorders showing common pathogenic patterns. This cross-sectional study was performed to evaluate if MetS and its constitutive elements are associated to an
OBJECTIVE
As a novel hepatokine, fetuin B involves in various functions of energy metabolism. Recent advance reveals a complex interaction between bone and liver via the secretion of hepatokines. The association between serum fetuin B and osteoporosis was evaluated in a 4-year hospital-based
OBJECTIVE
Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disorder characterizedby reduced bone mass, deteriorated bone structure. Various studies have tried to evaluate the association between lipid level and osteoporosis, but the results were proved to be controversial. The objectives of this study are to
