The potential effect of romosozumab on perioperative management for instrumentation surgery.

Background: Age-related changes in bone health increase the risk for complications in elderly patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. Osteoporosis is a key therapeutic target that needs to be addressed to ensure successful instrumentation surgery. The effectiveness of pharmacological interventions in orthopedic surgery, particularly the new drug romosozumab, is still unknown.

Changes in Testing and Treatment Methods in Osteoporosis Care.

Osteoporosis treatment plays a crucial role in preventing fractures, particularly in bedridden patients. We conducted a questionnaire survey presenting hypothetical clinical cases in 2015 and 2020 to investigate trends over a 5-year period. The target population included physicians working in clinics and hospitals within our neighbourhood.

Retrospective analysis of atlantoaxial rotatory fixation describing age distribution and gender ratio in children and adolescents: A preliminary report.

Introduction: Atlantoaxial rotatory fixation (AARF) in children presents with an acute onset of neck pain. Almost all cases heal within a few days of onset and are treated conservatively. Because few cases of AARF have been reported, the age distribution or gender ratio of AARF in the child population have not been described enough.

Safety and effectiveness of once-yearly zoledronic acid in Japanese osteoporosis patients: three-year post-marketing surveillance.

Introduction: Zoledronic acid (5 mg; ZOL), a once-yearly bisphosphonate, reduces osteoporotic fractures and increases bone mineral density (BMD). This 3-year post-marketing surveillance examined its real-world safety and effectiveness.

Materials And Methods: This prospective, observational study included patients who started ZOL for osteoporosis.
