Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum uric acid levels and various bone health parameters in postmenopausal women, focusing on bone mineral density and fracture risk.*
- Conducted on 679 women, the research categorized participants based on uric acid levels and measured bone density, ultrasound parameters, and relevant blood markers.*
- Results showed that higher uric acid levels were linked to better bone density and lower rates of vertebral fractures, suggesting that increased uric acid may positively impact bone health.*
A significant loss of bone mineral density and the appearance of multiple vertebral fractures after discontinuation of denosumab treatment have been described. To date, no hip fractures have been reported. We present three cases of patients who suffered femoral fractures after denosumab suppression.

Study Design: 1229 postmenopausal women were studied, of whom 390 (31.7%), were living in rural areas and 839 (68.
