Most studies of combination therapy with teriparatide and a bisphosphonate have not shown greater efficacy over monotherapy. The bisphosphonate risedronate, has not been studied in this context. The purpose of this proof-of-concept study was to assess whether combination risedronate and teriparatide increases bone mineral density (BMD) more than monotherapy with either drug alone. This was a randomized,...
Hypoparathyroidism is a disorder characterized by hypocalcemia and low or absent parathyroid hormone (PTH). While standard treatment of hypoparathyroidism consists of oral calcium and vitamin D supplementation, maintaining serum calcium levels can be a challenge, and concerns exist regarding hypercalciuria and ectopic calcifications that can be associated with such treatment. Hypoparathyroidism is...
By conventional 2-dimensional histomorphometric analysis, we have shown that cancellous bone architecture is markedly altered in hypoparathyroidism. We have now extended these observations to a 3-dimensional analysis using microcomputed tomography. Percutaneous iliac crest bone biopsies were analyzed by high-resolution microcomputed tomography from the following 25 subjects with hypoparathyroidism:...
