Journal ArticleDOI
Does the use of ACE inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers affect bone loss in older men
Timothy Kwok,J. Leung,Y. F. Zhang,Douglas C. Bauer,Kristine E. Ensrud,Elizabeth Barrett-Connor,P. C. Leung +6 more
TL;DR: Use of ACE inhibitors but not ARB may marginally increase bone loss in older men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term measurements of radon progeny concentrations with solid-state nuclear track detectors
TL;DR: In this article, the track parameters were first calculated using a track development model with a published V function, and by assuming a removed active layer of 6.54m, the relationship between the removed layer and the track diameter ofnormally incident 3 MeV -particles was then derived for the V function specifically determined for the LR 115 detectors used for the experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Management of osteoporosis in patients hospitalized for hip fractures.
TL;DR: Although hip fracture is the most serious of all fractures, osteoporosis management should be prioritized to prevent deterioration of health and occurrence of further fracture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predictive values of calcaneal quantitative ultrasound and dual energy X ray absorptiometry for non-vertebral fracture in older men: results from the MrOS study (Hong Kong).
TL;DR: The ability of calcaneal QUS to predict non-vertebral fractures was comparable to that of axial BMD by DXA, but was inferior to BMD in predicting major fragility fractures in older Chinese men.
Journal ArticleDOI
The added value of trabecular bone score to FRAX® to predict major osteoporotic fractures for clinical use in Chinese older people: the Mr. OS and Ms. OS cohort study in Hong Kong
TL;DR: TBS-adjusted FRAX® may improve the predictive power of FRAx® on MOFs for clinical use in older Chinese men, and predicts better than F RAX® with a significantly increased AUC and IDI in men.
