Steroid-induced osteoporosis.
INTRODUCTION Corticosteroids have major effects on calcium metabolism, leading to accelerated osteoporosis and fracture. METHODS This review will attempt to summarise current knowledge about their effects in light of new information and important remaining questions, especially with respect to management of this common condition. RESULTS Corticosteroids affect bone through multiple pathways...
متن کاملManagement of Steroid-Induced Osteoporosis
Chronic use of corticosteroid is the most common secondary cause of osteoporosis. Contrary to previous belief apart from the primary or the idiopathic type, it occurs in all racial groups, both genders, and at any age.

Intravenous bisphosphonates should be considered for patients intolerant of the oral route. For patients receiving chronic low dose corticosteroids treatment with calcium and vitamin D may prevent further bone loss. Use of parathyroid hormone is promising.

Correspondence to: Lai-Wa Kwok Abstract: Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis is the most common cause of drug-induced osteoporosis, leading to fragility fractures, decrease in mobility and quality of life. Patients who receive equivalent dose of prednisolone 5 mg for more than six months are at risk of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis, but there is no conclusive evidence for a safe cutoff fo...
متن کاملEffects of steroid-induced osteoporosis on osseointegration of titanium implants.
The purpose of this study was to clarify the effects of steroid administration on the osseointegration of pure titanium implants. Twelve female New Zealand white rabbits, 8 weeks of age, were divided into two groups: a prednisolone-treated group (Group P) and a control group (Group C). In each rabbit, two implants were placed into the mandible and two into the tibial metaphyses with bone tappin...
