Bone Mineral Density articles

HIV infected at higher risk for bone fractures
Low bone mineral density in HIV-infected patients is common and raises concerns about increased risks of fracture, revealed by researchers.

Bone density unnecessary in women taking osteoporosis drugs
Monitoring bone mineral density in postmenopausal women taking osteoporosis drugs (bisphosphonates) is unnecessary and potentially misleading, revealed by researchers through a new study published on bmj.com.

Merck's Odanacatib increases bone mineral density
2 year data from a Phase IIB study of odanacatib (formerly MK-0822), an investigational, selective cathepsin-K inhibitor in development for the treatment of osteoporosis by Merck & Co., Inc., demonstrated dose-dependent increases in bone mineral density (BMD) at the total hip, lumbar spine and femoral neck fracture sites and decreased indices of bone resorption compared to placebo in postmenopausal women with low BMD.

Women with osteoporosis have increased long-term risk for new fracture
Over a 15 year period, women with low bone mineral density and a previous vertebral fracture had an increased risk of a new vertebral fracture compared to women with normal bone mineral density and no previous fracture, according to a study in the December 19 issue of JAMA.
