Journal ArticleDOI

Aliya Khan,David A. Hanley,John P. Bilezikian,Neil Binkley,Jacques P. Brown,Anthony B. Hodsman,Robert G. Josse,David L. Kendler,E. Michael Lewiecki,Paul D. Miller,Wojciech P. Olszynski,Steven M. Petak,Zeba A. Syed,Diane Theriault,Nelson B. Watts +14 more
TL;DR: Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is a valuable tool in assessing skeletal health in individuals with secondary causes of osteoporosis and quantitative bone histomorphometry is better at evaluating skeletal status than BMD in CRF.
Journal Article
Bisphosphonates: safety and efficacy in the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis.
Susan L. Greenspan,Steven T. Harris,Henry G. Bone,Paul D. Miller,Eric S. Orwoll,Nelson B. Watts,Clifford J. Rosen +6 more
TL;DR: B bisphosphonates, which inhibit bone resorption, cause an increase in bone mineral density and reduce the risk of future fractures caused by aging, estrogen deficiency and corticosteroid use, have been shown to have a strong safety and tolerability profile.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristics associated with anti-osteoporosis medication use: data from the Global Longitudinal Study of Osteoporosis in Women (GLOW) USA cohort
Pamela Guggina,Julie M. Flahive,Frederick H. Hooven,Nelson B. Watts,Ethel S. Siris,Stuart G. Silverman,Christian Roux,Johannes Pfeilschifter,Susan L. Greenspan,Adolfo Diez-Perez,Cyrus Cooper,Juliet E. Compston,Roland Chapurlat,Steven Boonen,Jonathan D. Adachi,Frederick A. Anderson,Stephen H. Gehlbach +16 more
TL;DR: Characteristics other than FRAX fracture risk appear to influence this use, particularly the presence of self-reported osteoporosis, in both high- and low-risk women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical loading, damping, and load-driven bone formation in mouse tibiae.
Todd Dodge,Mina Wanis,Ramez Ayoub,Liming Zhao,Nelson B. Watts,Amit Bhattacharya,Ozan Akkus,Alexander G. Robling,Alexander G. Robling,Hiroki Yokota,Hiroki Yokota +10 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that in addition to bone's compressive damping capacity, surrounding tissues, as well as naturally-occurring bone curvature, also contribute to mechanical damping, which may ultimately affect bone remodeling and bone quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
No Increase in Fractures After Stopping Hormone Therapy: Results From the Women's Health Initiative
Nelson B. Watts,Jane A. Cauley,Rebecca D. Jackson,Andrea Z. LaCroix,Cora E. Lewis,JoAnn E. Manson,Joan M. Neuner,Lawrence S. Phillips,Lawrence S. Phillips,Marcia L. Stefanick,Jean Wactawski-Wende,Carolyn J. Crandall +11 more
TL;DR: There was residual benefit for total fractures in former HT users from the CEE-alone study, and there was no evidence for increased fracture risk, either sustained or transient, forFormer HT users compared with former placebo users after stopping HT.
