Denosumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody against receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand, an essential mediator of osteoclast activity and survival. In postmenopausal women with low bone mineral density (BMD), subcutaneous denosumab decreases bone resorption and increases BMD. This post hoc analysis reports on subjects treated for up to 24 months with denosumab 60mg 6 monthly (N=39),...
The aim of this cross-sectional analysis was to examine the skeletal effects of low-dose monophasic oral contraceptive (OC) use in a cohort of 248 young Caucasian women aged 18–24 years. Areal bone mineral density (BMD) of the femoral neck and lumbar spine was evaluated by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Volumetric BMD, bone mineral content (BMC), and bone geometry were assessed in the tibia by...
This 12-month study was conducted to evaluate the skeletal effects of two monophasic oral contraceptives containing 20 μg of ethinylestradiol and 100 μg of levonorgestrel (LEVO) or 150 μg of desogestrel (DESO).Fifty-two women (18–24 years) were randomized into the DESO group or the LEVO group; 36 women served as controls. The areal bone mineral density (aBMD) of the femoral neck and the lumbar spine...
