Opis

Metabolic bone degeneration (osteoporosis) affects millions of people - primarily postmenopausal women - and is directly responsible for debilitating hip, vertebral, and limb fractures in the elderly. Incorporating advances made within just the past five years, "The Osteoporotic Syndrome: Detection, Prevention, and Treatment" serves as an up-to-date, practical guide to the major clinical aspects of osteoporosis. The text is liberally illustrated with detailed figures. As a resource for the clinician dealing with metabolic bone degeneration, this book represents an excellent source of information on the diagnosis and day-to-day management of osteoporosis. The topics covered include: therapy with vitamin D metabolites, sodium fluoride, thiazides, and isoflavones; biochemical markers of bone turnover; calcium, vitamin D, and bone metabolism; estrogens and tissue selective estrogens for prevention and treatment of osteoporosis; the effects of osteoporosis on orthopaedic surgery; the therapy of glucocorticoid bone disease; effects of aging on bone structure and metabolism; management of osteoporotic patients in our health care delivery system; the genetics of osteoporosis; bisphosphonate therapy for osteoporosis; calcitonin; bone mass measurement techniques in clinical practice; and, osteoporosis and the bone biopsy.
