Let’s Talk Women’s Health in Rheumatic Diseases
In this episode, we’re highlighting the importance of recognizing and discussing women’s health – from premenstruation through menstruation and pregnancy and menopausal transition – in rheumatology.
Postmenopausal Women
Trabecular Bone Score Plus BMD Improves Identification of Abnormal Bone in Women With Fracture
Researchers evaluated the frequency of normal bone in postmenopausal women with prior or incident fracture.
Abaloparatide Increases BMD in Younger Postmenopausal Women at High Risk for Fracture
Abaloparatide treatment significantly increases bone mineral density in younger postmenopausal women at high risk for fracture.
Serum Uric Acid Levels Linked to Reduced Hip Osteoporosis Risk in Postmenopausal Women With RA
Researchers assessed the association between serum uric acid levels and osteoporosis risk in postmenopausal women with rheumatoid arthritis.
Evaluating the Effects of Follow-Up Therapy After Denosumab Discontinuation in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Researchers evaluated the effects of follow-up therapy after denosumab discontinuation on bone resorption, bone mineral density, and clinical fracture risk.
Dairy Intake May Not Affect BMD During Menopausal Transition
Level of dairy intake does not affect the rate of bone mineral density loss or fracture risk among perimenopausal women.
Updated AACE/ACE Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Postmenopausal Osteoporosis: What Do Clinicians Need to Know?
The ACE and AACE released a 2020 update to their clinical practice guidelines for the treatment and diagnosis of postmenopausal osteoporosis.
Low-Dose Denosumab May Be Effective in Maintaining BMD in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Researchers evaluated the efficacy of low-dose denosumab for maintaining bone mineral density in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.
Organic Nitrates Do Not Affect Bone Mineral Density in Postmenopausal Women
Organic nitrates did not affect bone density or turnover in postmenopausal women with osteopenia in a randomized controlled trial.
Socioeconomic Status Associated With Coexistence of Metabolic Syndrome and Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Postmenopausal women with low income and less education are more likely to have coexistence of metabolic syndrome and osteoporosis.
