Determinants of trabecular bone score and prevalent vertebral fractures in women with fragility fractures: a cross-sectional sub-study of NoFRACT
Borgen, Tove Tveitan; Bjørnerem, Åshild; Solberg, Lene Bergendal; Andreasen, Camilla; Figved, Wender; Hübschle, Lars Michael; Stenbro, May-Britt; Basso, Trude; Dahl, cecilie; Stutzer, Jens-Meinhard; Frihagen, Frede; Eriksen, Erik Fink; Nordsletten, Lars; Hansen, Ann Kristin; Apalset, Ellen Margrete; Gjertsen, Jan Erik; Lund, Ida (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Summary: Determinants of trabecular bone score (TBS) and vertebral fractures assessed semiquantitatively (SQ1–SQ3) were studied in 496 women with fragility fractures. TBS was associated with age, parental hip fracture, ... -
Individual Variation in Adaptive Immune Responses and Risk of Hip Fracture-A NOREPOS Population-Based Cohort Study
Dahl, Jesper; Holvik, Kristin; Heldal, Einar; Grimnes, Guri; Hoff, Mari; Finnes, Trine; Apalset, Ellen Margrete; Meyer, Haakon E (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Immune‐mediated bone loss significantly impacts fracture risk in patients with autoimmune disease, but to what extent individual variations in immune responses affect fracture risk on a population level is unknown. To ... -
Initiation of anti-osteoporotic drugs in high-risk female patients starting glucocorticoid treatment: a population study in Norway
Apalset, Ellen Margrete; Lunde, Astrid; Hoff, Mari; Ehrenstein, Vera; Tell, Grethe S. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Summary: Glucocorticoid use is a risk factor for osteoporosis and fractures. We studied whether women initiating glucocorticoid treatment also started anti-osteoporotic treatment, according to clinical guidelines. Women ... -
No association between osteoporosis and AO classification of distal radius fractures: an observational study of 289 patients
Hjelle, Anja Myhre; Gjertsen, Jan-Erik; Apalset, Ellen Margrete; Nilsen, Roy Miodini; Lober, Anja; Tell, Grethe S.; Pawel, Mielnik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-12)Background: It is mechanically plausible that osteoporosis leads to more severe peripheral fractures, but studies investigating associations between BMD and radiographically verified complexity of distal radius fractures ... -
Post-Fracture Risk Assessment: Target The Centrally Sited Fractures First! A Sub-Study of NoFRACT
Borgen, Tove Tveitan; Bjørnerem, Åshild; Solberg, Lene Bergendal; Andreasen, Camilla; Brunborg, Cathrine; Stenbro, May-Britt; Hübschle, Lars Michael; Froholdt, Anne; Figved, Wender; Apalset, Ellen Margrete; Gjertsen, Jan-Erik; Basso, Trude; Lund, Ida; Hansen, Ann Kristin; Stutzer, Jens-Meinhard; Omsland, Tone Kristin; Nordsletten, Lars; Frihagen, Frede Jon; Eriksen, Erik Fink (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The location of osteoporotic fragility fractures adds crucial information to post‐fracture risk estimation. Triaging patients according to fracture site for secondary fracture prevention can therefore be of interest to ...
