Previous fracture and subsequent fracture risk: a meta-analysis to update FRAX
A large international meta-analysis using primary data from 64 cohorts has quantified the increased risk of fracture associated with a previous history of fracture for future use in FRAX.

Update of the fracture risk prediction tool FRAX: a systematic review of potential cohorts and analysis plan
We describe the collection of cohorts together with the analysis plan for an update of the fracture risk prediction tool FRAX with respect to current and novel risk factors. The resource comprises 2,138,428 p...

Open AccessThe clinical application of high-resolution peripheral computed tomography (HR-pQCT) in adults: state of the art and future directions
High-resolution peripheral computed tomography (HR-pQCT) was developed to image bone microarchitecture in vivo at peripheral skeletal sites. Since the introduction of HR-pQCT in 2005, clinical research to gain...

Use of CTX-I and PINP as bone turnover markers: National Bone Health Alliance recommendations to standardize sample handling and patient preparation to reduce pre-analytical variability
The National Bone Health Alliance (NBHA) recommends standardized sample handling and patient preparation for C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX-I) and N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (P...

Has sclerostin a true endocrine metabolic action complementary to osteocalcin in older men?
The reported association between sclerostin and diabetes mellitus or abdominal fat may be biased by body size and bone mass. In older men, the association between serum sclerostin levels and metabolic syndrome...

Oxytocin and bone status in men: analysis of the MINOS cohort
Oxytocin, a neurohypophysial hormone, regulates bone metabolism in animal studies and postmenopausal women. In men, oxytocin is not associated with bone mineral density, bone turnover markers, or prevalent fra...

Family resemblance of bone turnover rate in mothers and daughters—the MODAM study
We studied bone turnover markers (BTM) and bone microarchitecture (using high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT)) in 171 postmenopausal women and their 210 premenopausal daughters...

Standardising the descriptive epidemiology of osteoporosis: recommendations from the Epidemiology and Quality of Life Working Group of IOF
The Committee of Scientific Advisors of International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) recommends that papers describing the descriptive epidemiology of osteoporosis using bone mineral density (BMD) at the femora...

Impaired trabecular and cortical microarchitecture in daughters of women with osteoporotic fracture: the MODAM study
We investigated the familial resemblance of bone microarchitecture parameters between postmenopausal mothers with fragility fracture and their premenopausal daughters using high-resolution peripheral quantitat...

Article
Severity of aortic calcification is positively associated with vertebral fracture in older men—a densitometry study in the STRAMBO cohort
In older men, severe abdominal aortic calcification and vertebral fracture (both assessed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry) were positively associated after adjustment for confounders including bone mine...

Article
Sarcopenia and its relationship with bone mineral density in middle-aged and elderly European men
The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between reduced muscle mass (sarcopenia) and areal bone mineral density (BMDa) in middle-aged and elderly community-dwelling European men. Men with sarcopen...

Article
Poor bone microarchitecture in older men with impaired physical performance—the STRAMBO study
In 810 men ≥60 years, poor physical performance of lower limbs was associated with lower areal bone mineral density (aBMD) of total hip and poor bone microarchitecture at the distal tibia (assessed by HR-pQCT)...

Article
Risk factors for peripheral fractures vary by age in older men—the prospective MINOS study
Identification of older men at high risk of peripheral fracture can be improved by assessing prevalent fractures (men aged ≤65), history of falls (men aged >65), bone width, and aortic calcifications.

Article
Thinking inside and outside the envelopes of bone
Bone modeling and remodeling is the final common pathway expressing all genetic and environmental factors that influence the attainment and maintenance of bone’s material and structural strength. Modeling and ...

Biochemical markers of bone turnover: potential use in the investigation and management of postmenopausal osteoporosis
The aim was to analyse data on the use of biochemical bone turnover markers (BTM) in postmenopausal osteoporosis.
-
Article
Biochemical assessment of bone turnover and bone fragility in men
Osteoporosis in men is less studied than in women. Few data concern biochemical bone turnover markers (BTM) in men and their potential use.

Article
Open AccessBone loss in elderly men: increased endosteal bone loss and stable periosteal apposition. The prospective MINOS study
Longitudinal studies on the age-related bone loss in men concerns the decrease in areal bone mineral density (aBMD), which can be qualified as “apparent bone loss” because it does not reflect the change in bon...

Article
Structural determinants of hip fracture in elderly women: re-analysis of the data from the EPIDOS study
Hip fracture is the most disastrous osteoporotic fracture, characterized by high mortality, morbidity and institutionalization for the patient and by high economic costs for the health care system. The morphol...

Role of sex steroids in the regulation of bone morphology in men. The MINOS study
In ageing men, skeletal fragility is associated with reduced cortical thickness and decreased bone density. To better understand the role of testosterone and 17β-estradiol regarding these characteristics of sk...

Semiquantitative Evaluation of Prevalent Vertebral Deformities in Men and their Relationship with Osteoporosis: The MINOS Study
Epidemiologic studies have shown a high prevalence of vertebral deformities in men without a steep increase with aging, suggesting that a substantial number of these deformities are not related to osteoporosi...
