[epidemiology of osteoporosis.] [Epidemiology of osteoporosis.] J Soc Biol. 2008;202(4):251-5 Authors: Chapurlat R Osteoporosis leads to fragility fractures. Fracture incidence increases after the menopause among women and with age in both genders. More than 40 % of women will sustain at least one fragility fracture after the age of 50. Many risk factors have been described, including age, familial history of fracture, low bone mineral density, personal history of fracture, smoking and low body mass index. Fracture incidence is increasing worldwide, owing to population aging. Hip and vertebral fractures are associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Costs related to fragility fractures represent a significant burden for health care systems. L'ostéoporose est à l'origine de fractures par frag... Med Worm[the challenges of the bone micro-architecture.] [The challenges of the bone micro-architecture.] J Soc Biol. 2008;202(4):265-73 Authors: Rachidi M, Breban S, Benhamou CL Osteoporosis is a bone disorder that leads to increased fracture risk. It was defined by the World Health Organisation as a decrease of bone mass and a deterioration of bone quality. In clinical practice, the diagnosis of osteoporosis is based on bone mineral density (BMD) measurements assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. However, BMD assessment is not the only factor that influences bone strength. The main objective is that clinicians can use a combination of risk factors that are easily assessable, for a better prediction of osteoporosis risk fracture. Bone strength reflects both bone density and bone quality. One of the most important determinant... Med Worm[daily clinical practice: biological testing in osteoporosis.] [Daily clinical practice: Biological testing in osteoporosis.] J Soc Biol. 2008;202(4):275-80 Authors: Souberbielle JC, Cormier C Although biological testing has nothing to do with the diagnosis of osteoporosis, it can help the physician to: 1) identify secondary causes of low bone mass and/or fracture. There is however currently no consensus to define the biochemical parameters to be measured in this case. The cost-effectiveness of the biological evaluation, that is, measuring a minimum of parameters to detect a maximum of anomalies needs to be considered. Most experts agree that malignancy and especially a myeloma should be ruled out, and that an evaluation of calcium/phosphorus metabolism including the measurement of serum calcium, phosphate, PTH and 25 hydroxy-vitamin D sho...
