Three years of alendronate treatment does not continue to decrease microstructural stresses and strains associated with trabecular microdamage initiation beyond those at 1 year
The effects of a 3-year alendronate treatment on trabecular stresses/strains associated with microdamage initiation were investigated using finite element modeling (FEM). Severely damaged trabeculae in the low...

Effects of Treatment with Parathyroid Hormone 1–84 on Quantity and Biomechanical Properties of Thoracic Vertebral Trabecular Bone in Ovariectomized Rhesus Monkeys
Osteoporosis is characterized by impaired bone quality leading to increased susceptibility to fracture, particularly of the thoracic spine. However, the lumbar spine is studied most commonly. We investigated t...
