We aimed to assess the capacity of biochemical markers of bone turnover (BTMs) to predict bone loss, osteoporosis (OP), and osteoporotic fractures. We randomly selected 400 individuals (age 40–79 years in 1993; 50 of each gender and age stratum) from a list of registered residents. In the years 1993, 1996, 2000, and 2003, bone mineral density (BMD) of the spine and hip were measured by dual-energy...
We aimed to (i) explore risk factors for major osteoporotic fracture or immobilization; (ii) develop a prediction model that can be used to assess the risk of fracture and immobilization; and (iii) assess external validity of the final model.A total of 1787 postmenopausal Japanese women were followed in a hospital-based cohort study. Endpoints included the annual incidence of major osteoporotic fracture...
The aim of this study was to clarify and compare the temporal course of bone mineral density (BMD) between fast bone losers and normal residents in Miyama Village, a rural Japanese community. BMD was measured over a 10-year period in a cohort study in Miyama Village, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan, to provide information on rate of bone loss in the mature and elderly population. Subjects (n=400) were...
