TL;DR: In those patients at high risk for the development of ONJ, including cancer patients receiving high‐dose BP or Dmab therapy, consideration should be given to withholding antiresorptive therapy following extensive oral surgery until the surgical site heals with mature mucosal coverage.

TL;DR: Examination of patterns of 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels worldwide and differences by age, sex and region suggested that newborns and institutionalised elderly from several regions worldwide appeared to be at a generally higher risk of exhibiting lower 25(OH)D values.

TL;DR: Factors including treatment-induced hypoglycaemia, certain antidiabetic medications with a direct effect on bone and mineral metabolism, as well as an increased propensity for falls, all contribute to the increased fracture risk in patients with diabetes mellitus.

TL;DR: The International Osteoporosis Foundation has developed Capture the Fracture because this is the single most important thing that can be done to directly improve patient care, of both women and men, and reduce the spiralling fracture-related care costs worldwide.

TL;DR: This study provides an overview of 25(OH)D levels around the globe and reveals large gaps in information in children and adolescents and smaller but important gaps in adults, as well as examining the existing heterogeneities in vitamin D status and identifying research gaps.
