Impact of Different Anti-Hyperglycaemic Treatments on Bone Turnover Markers and Bone Mineral Density in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Diabetic bone disease (DBD) is a frequent complication in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), characterised by altered bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover marker (BTMs) levels. The impact of different anti-diabetic medications on the skeleton remains unclear, and studies have reported conflicting results; thus, the need for a comprehensive systematic review is of paramount importance. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed and the Cochrane Library.
