Introduction Bone fragility is a significant global health concern characterized by a reduction in bone strength, leading to an increased risk of fractures. It is closely associated with conditions such as osteoporosis, osteopenia, and age-related bone loss. The skeletal system’s integrity depends […]
Introduction Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disorder characterized by reduced bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to increased bone fragility and susceptibility to fractures. It is a major public health issue, particularly in postmenopausal women and elderly men. According […]
Introduction Fracture incidence refers to the frequency or rate at which bone fractures occur in a population over a specific period. It serves as a key indicator of skeletal health and reflects the underlying prevalence of conditions such as osteoporosis, trauma exposure, […]
Introduction Bone fragility refers to a condition in which bones become structurally weak and more susceptible to fractures, even under minimal trauma. It results from alterations in bone quantity, quality, and microarchitecture that compromise mechanical integrity. The phenomenon is particularly common in […]
