Effects of Risedronate Treatment on Vertebral and Nonvertebral Fractures in Women With Postmenopausal Osteoporosis<SUBTITLE>A Randomized Controlled Trial</SUBTITLE>

Abstract: These data suggest that risedronate therapy is effective and well tolerated in the treatment of women with established postmenopausal osteoporosis.

“…Another limitation is that the present study did not include a control group. Antifracture trials show that treatment with calcium and vitamin D alone has a mild antiresportive effect, (2)(3)(4)6,7) and it is possible that this may have slightly blunted the anabolic effects of teriparatide reported in the present study.…”

“…(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8) Generally, these can be divided into two types: (1) antiresorptive treatments such as bisphosphonates (1,2,4,6,7) that bring about a prompt decrease in biochemical markers of bone resorption followed a few months later by a reduction in bone formation markers (9) and (2) anabolic agents (currently only parathyroid hormone) (5,10) that bring about a prompt increase in bone formation followed a few weeks later by an increase in bone resorption. (11) Many modern treatments for osteoporosis have a profound effect on bone remodeling, and studies of bone turnover have an important role in the evaluation of their effect on bone quality.…”

“…Osteoporotic fractures were counted as events beginning after completing month 6 because fracture rates in treated and untreated patients begin to diverge between treatment and placebo arms in the first 6-12 months in randomized trials of oral bisphosphonates [20,21]. In contrast, to allow adequate time for BMD response to oral bisphosphonates, post-index BMD measurements were counted only from the beginning of month 13 onwards (i.e.…”

“…However, the changes in BMD explain only a fraction of the observed fracture risk reduction [5][6][7]. These observations suggest that anti-resorptive agents improve bone strength by decreasing bone turnover and by increasing intrinsic material properties of bone rather than simply affecting bone mass.…”
