Emerging therapies for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Journal of mid-life health

Bhutani G, Gupta MC.
PMID: 24672186
J Midlife Health. 2013 Jul;4(3):147-52. doi: 10.4103/0976-7800.118991.

Osteoporosis is a chronic disease of the osseous system characterized by decreased bone strength and increased fracture risk. It is due to an imbalance in the dynamic ongoing processes of bone formation and bone resorption. Currently available osteoporosis therapies...

Nonsurgical Treatment Strategies after Osteoporotic Hip Fractures.

Hip & pelvis

Min BW, Song KS, Bae KC, Cho CH, Son ES, Lee KJ.
PMID: 27536596
Hip Pelvis. 2015 Mar;27(1):9-16. doi: 10.5371/hp.2015.27.1.9. Epub 2015 Mar 31.

Osteoporosis is a metabolic disease that is increasing in prevalence as people live longer. Because the orthopedic surgeon is frequently the first and often the only physician to manage patients with osteoporotic hip fractures, every effort should be made...

Bone turnover markers: Emerging tool in the management of osteoporosis.

Indian journal of endocrinology and metabolism

Shetty S, Kapoor N, Bondu JD, Thomas N, Paul TV.
PMID: 27867890
Indian J Endocrinol Metab. 2016 Nov-Dec;20(6):846-852. doi: 10.4103/2230-8210.192914.

Bone is a dynamic tissue which undergoes constant remodeling throughout the life span. Bone turnover is balanced with coupling of bone formation and resorption at various rates leading to continuous remodeling of bone. A study of bone turnover markers...

Biocalcite, a multifunctional inorganic polymer: Building block for calcareous sponge spicules and bioseed for the synthesis of calcium phosphate-based bone.

Beilstein journal of nanotechnology

Wang X, Schröder HC, Müller WE.
PMID: 24991497
Beilstein J Nanotechnol. 2014 May 12;5:610-21. doi: 10.3762/bjnano.5.72. eCollection 2014.

Calcium carbonate is the material that builds up the spicules of the calcareous sponges. Recent results revealed that the calcium carbonate/biocalcite-based spicular skeleton of these animals is formed through an enzymatic mechanism, such as the skeleton of the siliceous...

Potential of recombinant human growth hormone in HIV-associated adipose redistribution syndrome.

BioDrugs : clinical immunotherapeutics, biopharmaceuticals and gene therapy

Torres RA, Cadman JA.
PMID: 18034560
BioDrugs. 2000 Aug;14(2):83-91. doi: 10.2165/00063030-200014020-00002.

HIV infection recently has been complicated by the emergence of a rare metabolic dysmorphic disorder characterised by fat atrophy, redistribution and accumulation in the setting of hyperlipidaemia and, on occasion, hyperglycaemia. The disorder, sometimes referred to as HIV-associated Adipose...

[PTH].

Clinical calcium

Shimizu M.
PMID: 15775412
Clin Calcium. 2002 Aug;12(8):1148-51. doi: CliCa020811481151.

Injectable forms of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and its N-terminal fragments are bone anabolic agents proven by randomized clinical trials. Alternate delivery forms of parathyroid hormone are under clinical or preclinical studies, including nasal, transdermal, and pulmonary formulations of PTH...

Burns.

Current opinion in anaesthesiology

Carl P, Reich H.
PMID: 17013217
Curr Opin Anaesthesiol. 1998 Apr;11(2):181-4. doi: 10.1097/00001503-199804000-00011.

Inhalation injuries still significantly increase the morbidity and mortality of burn patients. Advances in ventilatory support appear to decrease the frequency of pneumonia and improve the survival of patients. It is now well accepted that early enteral feeding of...

Effects of amylin and adrenomedullin on the skeleton.

Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions

Cornish J, Reid IR.
PMID: 15758473
J Musculoskelet Neuronal Interact. 2001 Sep;2(1):15-24.

Amylin and adrenomedullin are related peptides with some homology to both calcitonin and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). All these peptides have in common a 6-amino acid ring structure at the amino-terminus created by a disulfide bond. In addition, the...

Profile of teriparatide in the management of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

International journal of women's health

Sikon A, Batur P.
PMID: 21072295
Int J Womens Health. 2010 Aug 09;2:37-44. doi: 10.2147/ijwh.s4919.

One out of every 2 women within postmenopause are at risk of fracture due to osteoporosis. Fortunately, a growing arsenal of therapies is becoming available to treat this disease and prevent fracture. A new class of anabolic agents has...

Anabolic therapy for osteoporosis.

Women's health (London, England)

Bilezikian JP.
PMID: 19803856
Womens Health (Lond). 2007 Mar;3(2):243-53. doi: 10.2217/17455057.3.2.243.

Antiresorptive agents for osteoporosis are a cornerstone of therapy, but anabolic drugs have recently increased our options. By directly stimulating bone formation, anabolic agents reduce fracture incidence by improving bone qualities as well as increasing bone mass. The anabolic...

Body composition of HIV-infected male adults with wasting syndrome.

Asia Pacific journal of clinical nutrition

Ellis KJ, Shypailo RJ, Pivarnik JM, Jenks BH, Walzel P, Lee PD.
PMID: 24394262
Asia Pac J Clin Nutr. 1995 Mar;4(1):105-8.

Chronic weight loss is a common characteristic of HIV infection; its full etiology remains unknown. We report body composition measurements for 39 adult males with wt loss >= 10% or a body mass index (BMI) below 19.8 kg •...

Spontaneous corpus cavernosum abscess in a healthy man using long-term androgenic anabolic steroids.

The world journal of men's health

Tüzel E.
PMID: 25927061

Abscess formation of the corpus cavernosum is very rare. Here, we report a case of long-term anabolic androgenic steroid (AAS) abuse that is suspected to have facilitated the development of a corpus cavernosum abscess in a healthy bodybuilder. Cultures...
