Bone health maintenance is a dynamic mechanism where in the bone mass is achieved by an equilibrium of bone formation and bone resorption. In the early stages of life when the bone formation is more than the bone resorption, the body achieves its peak bone mass1. Whereas, as an individual crosses his adolescent stage of […]

Osteoporosis is a multifactorial disease characterized by loss of bone mass due to a marked bone microarchitecture deterioration.1 Physiologically, bone is constantly remodeled by concerted and coordinated interactions between osteoclasts, the cells primarily involved in bone resorption, and osteoblasts, which ensure bone formation and mineralization. Osteoporosis results from an imbalance between bone deposition and resorption.1 About […]

The skeletal disease of bone thinning and compromised bone strength, osteoporosis, continues to be a major public health issue as the population ages. This disease is characterized by bone fragility and an increased susceptibility to fractures, especially of the spine and hip, although any bone can be affected. Risk for osteoporosis has been reported in […]
