Bone Quality Linked to Complications After Spinal Fusion
Abnormalities of trabecular and cortical microarchitecture are associated with skeletal complications in the six months following spinal fusion surgery.
Physical Activity Important for Osteoporosis Prevention in Older Adults
There may be an association between physical activity and osteoporosis prevention among individuals aged at least 65 years.
Balance Predictive of Low BMD in Postmenopausal Women With Osteopenia
Researchers determined whether balance and functional mobility predicted bone mineral density in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis and osteopenia.
