  • The study aimed to explore the relationship between pre-existing poor bone mineral density (PBMD) and the risk of bone metastasis in patients with urological cancers like kidney, bladder, prostate, and testicular cancer.
  • Using a large patient database, researchers found that those with PBMD had significantly higher odds of developing bone metastases shortly after their cancer diagnosis, particularly within the first week.
  • The use of bisphosphonates was linked to a reduced risk of bone metastasis in these patients, indicating a possible protective effect worth investigating further.
