TL;DR: Daily treatment with alendronate progressively increases the bone mass in the spine, hip, and total body and reduces the incidence of vertebral fractures, the progression of vertebra deformities, and height loss in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of oral alendronate, an aminobisphosphonate, on bone mineral density and the incidence of fractures and height loss in 994 women with postmenopausal osteoporosis were studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic evidence that the human CYP2R1 enzyme is a key vitamin D 25-hydroxylase
TL;DR: A molecular analysis of a patient with low circulating levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D and classic symptoms of vitamin D deficiency is reported, identifying CYP2R1 as a biologically relevant vitamin D 25-Hydroxylase and revealing the molecular basis of a human genetic disease, selective 25- hydroxylation deficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low circulating vitamin D in obesity.
Yair Liel,Enoch Ulmer,Enoch Ulmer,Judith Shary,Judith Shary,Bruce W. Hollis,Bruce W. Hollis,Norman H. Bell,Norman H. Bell +8 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that serum vitamin D is significantly lower in obese than in nonobese individuals and may contribute to lower serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D in obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of ovariectomy and 17β-estradiol on cortical bone histomorphometry in growing rats
TL;DR: The results of these short‐term studies indicate that ovariectomy in growing rats leads to increases in both bone formation and resorption, and that these increases are reversed by treatment with 17β‐estradiol.
