Vitamin D supplements have been used to prevent fractures. The effect may be mediated
through increased bone mass, but also through reduced falling propensity. The aim of this …

We studied the ability of various markers of bone turnover to predict fracture in 1040 randomly
recruited 75‐year‐old women. A total of 178 of the women sustained at least one fracture …

Bone density, bone turnover and fracture susceptibility were evaluated in 1,132 randomly
recruited women, all 75 years old. Seventy-four of the women had diabetes, while 1,058 …

OBJECTIVE: To see if there is a relationship between clinical and laboratory tests of balance,
muscular strength and gait in elderly women. DESIGN: A randomized population-based …

In this longitudinal, prospective, and population‐based study (n = 1044), seven BTMs were
assessed before and after trauma in 113 elderly women (85 with fractures). Markers were not …

Study Design. Prospective observational study. Objective. The aim of this study was to evaluate
the accuracy of pedicle screw placement using augmented reality surgical navigation (…

Osteoporosis is characterized by compromised bone mass and strength, predisposing to an
increased risk of fracture. Increased bone metabolism has been suggested to be a risk factor …

Study Design. Prospective randomized controlled study. Objective. To compare the outcome
of indirect decompression by means of the X-Stop (Medtronics Inc., Minneapolis, MN) …

Homocysteine has been suggested to be a risk factor for fracture, but the causal relationship
is not clear. In 996 women from the OPRA study, high homocysteine level was associated …

Study Design. Cadaveric laboratory study. Objective. To assess the feasibility and accuracy
of minimally invasive thoracolumbar pedicle screw placement using augmented reality (AR) …
