Osteoporosis : Risk Factors, Symptoms & Management Hardback

Hardback

Available to Order - This title is available to order, with delivery expected within 2 weeks

Description

Osteoporosis is a systemic, debilitating disease of the skeleton, characterised by significantly decreased bone mass in combination with the deterioration of bone microarchitecture.

This process results in weakened bone with a great propensity for fracture under low-energy stress.

This book presents current research in the study of the risk factors, symptoms and management of osteoporosis.

Topics include the influence of osteoporosis in oral health; assessment of risk fracture risk and therapeutic effects on osteoporosis; diagnosing future bone fracture; genetic and environmental factors in human osteoporosis; the pathogenesis of skeletal complications in patients with endogenous hypercorticism; genetic and postmenopausal osteoporosis risk; and severely suppressed bone turnover associated with bisphosphonate for osteoporosis.
