    Study Notes

    Overview of Osteoporosis, Bone Cells, and BMD:

    • Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disorder characterized by low bone mass and increased bone fragility.
    • Bone cells include osteoblasts and osteoclasts, which respond to different hormones.
    • BMD is measured via DXA scan and a T-score of less than -2.5 indicates osteoporosis.

    Screening and Diagnosis of Osteoporosis:

    • Basic bone health measures include exercise, calcium and vitamin D intake, and fall prevention.
    • Fragility fractures, risk factors, and secondary osteoporosis are indications for screening.
    • Recommended biochemical tests include serum calcium, vitamin D, and CBC.
    • Risk stratification is based on the 10-year fracture risk, calculated using the CAROC tool or FRAX questionnaire.

    Treatment of Osteoporosis:

    • Non-pharmacological therapies include exercise, lifestyle changes, and calcium and vitamin D supplementation.
    • Pharmacological therapies include bisphosphonates, denosumab, and other agents.
    • Contraindications for bisphosphonates include denosumab therapy, pregnancy, and CKD.
