Bone-turnover markers in fracture healing.
Biochemical markers of bone-turnover have long been used to complement the radiological assessment of patients with metabolic bone disease. Their implementation in daily clinical practice has been helpful in the understanding of the pathogenesis of osteoporosis, the selection of the optimal dose and the understanding of the progression of the onset and resolution of treatment. Since they are de...
متن کاملEarly Changes in Bone Specific Turnover Markers During the Healing Process After Vertebral Fracture
BACKGROUND The present study measured longitudinal changes in bone turnover markers in elderly patients with vertebral fracture and investigated the relationship among bone turnover markers, duration of bed rest and bone mineral density (BMD). METHODS Criteria for patient selection were 50 years in age and older, and presence of VF. Serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) was measured ...
متن کاملBone turnover markers for early detection of fracture healing disturbances: A review of the scientific literature.
Imaging techniques are the standard method for assessment of fracture healing processes. However, these methods are perhaps not entirely reliable for early detection of complications, the most frequent of these being delayed union and non-union. A prompt diagnosis of such disorders could prevent prolonged patient distress and disability. Efforts should be directed towards the development of new...
متن کاملComparison in bone turnover markers during early healing of femoral neck fracture and trochanteric fracture in elderly patients
Healing of fractures is different for each bone and bone turnover markers may reflect the fracture healing process. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristic changes in bone turnover markers during the fracture healing process. The subjects were consecutive patients with femoral neck or trochanteric fracture who underwent surgery and achieved bone union. There were a total o...
متن کاملBone turnover markers.
Bones are constantly remodelled to cope with the body's calcium requirements and to repair microscopic damage. The entire skeleton is replaced every 10 years in adults, and around 10% of the skeleton is involved in bone remodelling at any one time.
