“…Biopsy studies suggest that the average bone strontium content after 2 years of treatment is around 1% [13]. A bone strontium content of 1% causes a 10% increase in BMD [14] which would be consistent with the 9% increase in BMD observed in the bisphosphonate-naive group in this study. The blunted BMD response observed in the prior bisphosphonate group is therefore likely to result from reduced strontium uptake in to the bone due to a reduced number of new bone packets caused by the prolonged suppression of bone turnover following bisphosphonate therapy [4].…”

“…As strontium has a higher atomic number than calcium, it attenuates more X-rays than calcium does. This attenuation can result in an overestimation of BMD that requires an adjustment for bone strontium content (58).…”

“…Although a commendable effort was made in the SOTI trial to correct the BMD data for the atomic number effect of strontium, there is clearly a considerable uncertainty about the accuracy of the corrections that have been done. 21,23 Furthermore a strong relationship between the increase in BMD and a subsequent reduction of a new vertebral or hip fracture risk has been demonstrated in SR-treated patients, indicating that BMD level monitoring may be valuable in these patients. After treatment withdrawal, patients who switched to a placebo after four years experienced a significant reduction in BMD, showing how SR effects had been progressively reversible and reflecting the clearance of strontium from the bone.…”
