Journal ArticleDOI
The Effects of Parathyroid Hormone and Alendronate Alone or in Combination in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Dennis M. Black,Susan L. Greenspan,Kristine E. Ensrud,Lisa Palermo,Joan McGowan,Thomas Lang,P. Garnero,Mary L. Bouxsein,John P. Bilezikian,Clifford J. Rosen +9 more
TL;DR: Changes in the volumetric density of trabecular bone, the cortical volume at the hip, and levels of markers of bone turnover suggest that the concurrent use of alendronate may reduce the anabolic effects of parathyroid hormone.

Coping with complexity: educating for capability.
Sarah W Fraser,Trisha Greenhalgh +1 more
TL;DR: Education providers must offer an environment and process that enables individuals to develop sustainable abilities appropriate for a continuously evolving organisation, and focus on process to avoid goals with rigid and prescriptive content.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology, etiology, and diagnosis of osteoporosis
TL;DR: Clinical assessment of osteoporotic risk factors and objective measures of bone mineral density can help to identify patients who will benefit from intervention and, thus, can potentially reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with osteopsorosis-associated fractures in this population.
Journal ArticleDOI
International variations in hip fracture probabilities: implications for risk assessment.
TL;DR: The categorization of hip fracture probabilities can be used to adjust intervention thresholds based on age, sex, and relative risk from a reference population such as Sweden.
Journal ArticleDOI
Weight-bearing exercise and bone mineral accrual in children and adolescents: a review of controlled trials.
Karen Hind,M. Burrows +1 more
TL;DR: Although weight-bearing exercise appears to enhance bone mineral accrual in children, particularly during early puberty; it remains unclear as to what constitutes the optimal exercise programme.
