The prevalence of patients treated for osteoporosis in Greenland is low compared to Denmark.

The study is a register-based cross-sectional study aiming to estimate the prevalence of treated osteoporosis in Greenland compared to Denmark and provide a description of the patients with osteoporosis in Greenland. In addition, the study estimates the incidence of hip fractures in Greenland from 2018 to 2020 among people aged 65 years or older. The overall prevalence of patients prescribed medication for osteoporosis among those aged 18 years or older was 0.

The relationship between abuse, psychosocial factors, and pain complaints among older persons in Europe.

Background And Objective: Abuse and pain complaints are common among older persons. However, little is known about relationships between abuse (e.g.

Effect of ploidy, recruitment, environmental factors, and tamoxifen treatment on the expression of sigma-2 receptors in proliferating and quiescent tumour cells.

Recently, we demonstrated that sigma-2 receptors may have the potential to be a biomarker of tumour cell proliferation (Mach et al (1997) Cancer Res 57: 156-161). If sigma-2 receptors were a biomarker of tumour cell proliferation, they would be amenable to detection by non-invasive imaging procedures, thus eliminating many of the problems associated with the flow cytometric measures of tumour cell proliferation presently used in the clinic. To be a good biomarker of tumour cell proliferation, the expression of sigma-2 receptors must be essentially independent of many of the biological, physiological, and/or environmental properties that are found in solid tumours.
