Medical conditions that may be associated with osteoporosis: ============================================================ **Select a medical condition from the list above to match with the related pathological cause of osteoporosis:** 1. No activity causes less bone formation, also lack of sunlight leads to vitamin D deficiency 2. Stimulates osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, inhibiting osteoblast-mediated bone formation, and altering the serum concentrations or the biological actions of parathyroid hormone and vitamin D 3. Too much T4 can increase osteoclastic activity (too much breakdown of bone) 4. Poor glycemic control leads to decreased osteoblastic activity 5. Causes a decrease in estrogen 6. Increased interleukins and tumor necrosis factor may be r/t accelerated bone loss also Protease inhibitors and NRTIs impede osteoblasts 7. Inflammation makes it harder to absorb nutrients like calcium and vit d and the med management with corticosteroids cause osteoclastic activity 8. Breakdown of bone from the disease process and from chemotherapy agents 9. This hormone stimulates osteoblastic activity, so a deficiency means less osteoblastic activity 10. Decreased vit d absorption and an imbalance of bone turnover 11. Too much PTH causing osteoclastic activity (too much breakdown) 12. Too much cortisol increases osteoclastic activity
