Summary: This study compared bone density and hip structure parameters between postmenopausal women with hip osteoarthritis and those with femoral neck fragility fracture. The results showed lower bone density in the femoral neck fracture group. The impact of hip osteoarthritis on hip structure displayed significant regional heterogeneity, with the intertrochanteric region showing the most notable difference.

Summary: In postmenopausal women with chronic postsurgical hypoparathyroidism, vertebral fractures can be detected by vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) despite normal bone mineral density values.

Summary: This study found that obesity is associated with early hip fracture risk, while normal-weight women may have an increasing trend in hip fracture risk at a later stage.

Summary: This study assessed the association between the T950C polymorphism and osteoporosis in postmenopausal Chinese women through meta-analysis and subgroup analysis. The results showed that postmenopausal women with the CC genotype had a lower risk of osteoporosis, suggesting a preventive effect of the CC genotype. Stratified analysis by geographic area revealed that the population from South China had a significantly higher risk under the dominant model, but a significantly lower risk under the recessive model.

Summary: Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-based bone radiomics scores from hip images may improve hip fracture prediction in older women. The study showed that an increase in bone radiomics score was associated with an elevated risk of incident hip fracture.

Summary: This study prospectively analyzed the association between subsequent fractures in postmenopausal women after initial fractures at different sites. The results showed that different types of initial fractures increased the risk of subsequent fractures of different types, and this risk was observed across all age groups of women.

Summary: The aim of this study was to estimate the incidence of clinical fragility fractures in postmenopausal women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and analyze the risk factors for fracture. The study found that the incidence of clinical fragility fractures in RA patients was higher compared to the control population. Risk factors for fractures in RA patients included age, previous fracture, parental hip fracture, years since menopause, bone mineral density, erosions, disease activity and disability, and cumulative dose of glucocorticoids. This highlights the higher risk of fractures in RA patients and the importance of addressing the associated risk factors.

Summary: This study found that postmenopausal women with chronic postsurgical hypoparathyroidism have increased bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) which is negatively associated with trabecular microarchitecture, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (H-1-MRS).

Summary: This study examined the incidence of fractures in postmenopausal Belgian women and found that the increase in fracture incidence varied depending on the fracture site, with central fractures showing a steeper increase compared to peripheral fractures.

Summary: Osteoporosis affects over 200 million women worldwide, with postmenopausal women being particularly susceptible. The focus has been on symptomatic treatment rather than prevention. This meta-analysis aimed to identify predictors of osteoporotic fractures in postmenopausal women to identify high-risk patients and explore potential therapeutic approaches.

Summary: This study examined the associations between fluoride exposure in postmenopausal women consuming drinking water with fluoride concentration <= 1 mg/L and bone mineral density (BMD) and fracture incidence. The results showed that fluoride exposure was positively associated with hip fractures, but less pronounced for other fractures. It suggests that high consumption of drinking water with fluoride concentration of 1 mg/L may increase both BMD and skeletal fragility in older women.

Summary: Postmenopausal osteoporosis, known as the "invisible killer," is a degenerative disease. Estrogen is crucial for maintaining bone mineral content in women. Iron accumulation, with serum ferritin levels higher than normal but less than 1000 μg/L, has been found to occur simultaneously with osteoporosis after menopause. Recent studies have shown that iron accumulation plays a vital role in postmenopausal osteoporosis and is significantly correlated with fragility fractures.
