Journal ArticleDOI

In Vivo Assessment of Trabecular Bone Microarchitecture by High-Resolution Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography."

TL;DR: HR-pQCT appears promising to assess bone density and microarchitecture at peripheral sites in terms of reproducibility and ability to detect age- and disease-related changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Finite element analysis based on in vivo HR-pQCT images of the distal radius is associated with wrist fracture in postmenopausal women.

TL;DR: BMD, bone microarchitecture, and bone mechanical properties assessed in vivo by finite element analysis were associated with wrist fracture in postmenopausal women.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alterations of Cortical and Trabecular Architecture Are Associated With Fractures in Postmenopausal Women, Partially Independent of Decreased BMD Measured by DXA: The OFELY Study

TL;DR: Vertebral and nonvertebral fractures are associated with low volumetric BMD and architectural alterations of trabecular and cortical bone, independent of aBMD assessed by DXA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of Osteopenic Women at High Risk of Fracture: The OFELY Study

TL;DR: In the OFELY study, low BMD, increased markers of bone turnover, and prior fracture could be used to identify, within osteopenic women, those at high risk of fracture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioavailable Estradiol May Be an Important Determinant of Osteoporosis in Men: The MINOS Study

TL;DR: It is found in a cross-sectional analysis of a cohort of men that low levels of bio-17betaE(2) are associated with high bone turnover and low BMD, and low 17betaE (2) levels may be an important risk factor for osteoporosis in men.
