Background: Osteoporosis is a common chronic disease characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) and microarchitectural deterioration of the bone, which are associated with increased risk of fragility fractures. Currently the most popular tool is the fracture risk assessment model FRAX to calculate the 10-year probability of major osteoporotic fractures (MOF) and hip fractures (HF).
Objective: To investigate the prevalence of low BMD at axial sites and fracture risk in Bulgarian population.
Article Synopsis
- * Results indicated that there was no statistically significant increased risk of endometrial pathology in women using vaginal oestrogen compared to those who did not, with no cases of atypical endometrial hyperplasia or endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia reported during the study.
- * The research supports the safety of topical vaginal oestrogens for treating genitourinary syndrome in menopausal women, highlighting their lesser impact on endometrial health compared to oral oestrogen
Article Synopsis
- This study investigates urologic complications following radical type C2 hysterectomy in cervical cancer patients, comparing outcomes with and without perioperative ureteral stenting.
- The study included 76 patients, randomly divided into two groups: one receiving ureteral stenting (24 patients) and the other not (52 patients), focusing on complications like ureter and bladder lesions as well as fistulas.
- Results showed that urologic complications were more common in the group without stenting (10.5% vs. 2.6%), indicating that stenting may help reduce these risks during and after surgery.*
