Study of Bone Histomorphometry, Microarchitecture, and Matrix Structure in Patients Receiving Alendronate...
Postmenopausal OsteoporosisPatients who have received the appropriate number of years of alendronate or risedronate therapy will be recruited. Each patient will have received baseline BMD measurements performed at the spine and the hip by DXA. Each patient will receive tetracycline to label the bone and then have a transiliac bone biopsy. One year later teh bone label and biopsy procedure will be repeated.

Association of Serum Ferritin and Bone Mineral Density With Bone Metabolism in Chinese Healthy Postmenopausal...
Postmenopausal OsteoporosisIron Metabolism DisordersLarge amounts of experimental and animal evidence have confirmed that iron accumulation is associated with bone loss. However, it is still lack of the clinical studies relating iron accumulation to bone loss, especially in the pathological conditions during our Chinese. In this study, the investigators aim to assess the association between the levels of serum ferritin and bone mineral density in Chinese healthy postmenopausal women.
Association of Cystatin C and Bone Mineral Density in Diabetic Patients.
OsteoporosisOsteoporosis2 moreType 1 diabetes is associated with low bone mineral density(BMD) and type 2 diabetes with normal or high BMD. Cystatin C is a small molecule that is used to measure kidney function but it's not a troponin of the kidney. It has been associated with many other diseases like atrial fibrillation, depressive symptoms, melanoma, etc. This crossectional clinical study was done to evaluate the association between Cystatin C and Bone mineral density in both types of diabetic patients.
