Objectives: Influence of presenting musculoskeletal ambulation disability symptom complex (MADS) on occurrence of bone fragility fracture (BFF) is investigated with retrospective cohort study.
Methods: A total of 931 subjects joined in the study. Subjects were selected as bone fragility risk positive in the fracture assessment tool questionnaire. Their assumed risk factors were harvested from the medical records and X-ray pictures. They were followed up at least 8 years consecutively, and occurrence of incident BFF was set as primary endpoint. Each assumed risk factor including MADS was evaluated using Cox regression analysis. Subjects were divided into 2 groups according to presence of MADS (G-MADS and G-noMADS). Adjusted hazard ratios between the 2 groups was evaluated using Cox regression analysis. The statistical procedures were performed before and after propensity score matching (PSM) procedures in order to make parallel with assumed risk factors.
Results: Statistically significant risk factors within 5% were prevalent vertebral body fracture, disuse, MADS, cognitive disorder, hypertension, contracture, Parkinsonism, being female sex, hyperlipidemia, insomnia, T-score in the femoral neck ≤ -2.3, chronic kidney disease ≥ stage 2, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, glucocorticoid steroid administrated, and osteoarthritis in order of the adjusted hazard ratios (from highest to lowest). Adjusted hazard ratios between G-MADS and G-noMADS were 2.70 and 1.83 for before and after PSM, respectively.
Conclusions: MADS demonstrated as a significant risk factor of BFF occurrence. In treating osteoporosis, fall risk should be aware of as well as bone fragility risk.

➢ Advanced care planning most commonly refers to the act of planning and preparing for decisions with regard to end-of-life care and/or serious illness based on a patient's personal values, life goals, and preferences.➢ Over time, advanced care planning and its formalization through advanced directives have demonstrated substantial benefits to patients, their families and caregivers, and the larger health-care system.➢ Despite these benefits, advanced care planning and advanced directives remain underutilized.

Context: Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) cause bone loss and increase fracture risk in women with hormone receptor-positive early-stage breast cancer (HR+EBC). Bone antiresorptive agents are recommended for patients at risk of fragility fractures. Eldecalcitol, combined with bisphosphonate, increases bone mineral density (BMD) in primary osteoporosis.

Context: A national assessment of osteoporosis drug therapy (ODT) use can inform the extent of underdiagnosis and undertreatment of osteoporosis.
Objective: The aim was to describe trends in ODT use by age, sex, fragility fracture, and documented osteoporosis.
Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of patient-quarter observations for adults aged ≥50 years with commercial or Medicare Advantage health insurance in the OptumLabs Data Warehouse between 2011 and 2022.

Introduction: A decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) accompanied by muscle weakness during aging significantly increases the probability of low-energy fracture occurrence, but it can also happen in those with a non-osteoporotic score (treatment gap). To improve the identification process of those at risk, the authors proposed using the interconnectivity between bone mineral density and muscle tissue.
Material And Methods: A total of 20,776 patient records were collected from the database in the period 2008-2021.

Tumour-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is an uncommon, debilitating disorder often characterised by non-specific clinical manifestations, posing a significant diagnostic challenge. The tumours causing TIO can be minuscule and occur in unusual areas, further complicating diagnosis. This report details the case of a woman in her early 30s presenting with chronic pain who subsequently developed fragility fractures.
