Bone structure of the distal radius and the calcaneus vs BMD of the spine and proximal femur in the prediction of osteoporotic spine fractures

TL;DR: BMD of the spine and structure measures of the distal radius were best suited to predict the osteoporotic fracture status of the backbone in post-menopausal women.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Odanacatib on the Radius and Tibia of Postmenopausal Women: Improvements in Bone Geometry, Microarchitecture, and Estimated Bone Strength

TL;DR: A randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial, using both quantitative computed tomography (QCT) and high‐resolution peripheral (HR‐p)QCT, concludes that odanacatib increased cortical and trabecular density, cortical thickness, aspects of trabECular microarchitecture, and estimated strength at the distal radius and distal tibia compared with placebo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differences in the association of hip cartilage lesions and cam-type femoroacetabular impingement with movement patterns: a preliminary study.

TL;DR: Differences in movement patterns were more pronounced between subjects with FAI who had cartilage lesions compared with subjects who did not havecartilage lesions, highlighting the importance of understanding the complex interplay between bony morphologic features, cartilage lesion, and movement patterns in persons with cam-type FAI.
Journal ArticleDOI

3 How can we measure bone quality

TL;DR: There is a growing interest in the use of quantitative ultrasound (QUS) measurements for the noninvasive assessment of osteoporotic fracture risk in the management of osteeporosis.
