Biomarkers Predictive of Pain Improvement in Knee Osteoarthritis Subjects Treated with the Anti-IL-1α/β Dual Variable Domain Immunoglobulin ABT-981
Background/Purpose: Development of disease-modifying drugs for OA has been challenging, partly due to lack of predictive biomarkers. Our primary objective was to identify baseline (BL)…Abstract Number: 1212 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Relation of Incident Bisphosphonate Use to Bone Marrow Lesion Volume in Knee Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: Bone marrow lesions (BMLs) are important contributors to pain and progression of knee OA. There has been recent interest in bisphosphonates as a potential…Abstract Number: 1213 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Prediction Model for the Two-Year Risk of Fracture Among Older US Women
Background/Purpose: Current algorithms for identifying patients at high risk of fracture focus on long-term risk. We developed simple 10- and 3-predictor models and points-based risk…Abstract Number: 1214 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Fracture Incidence and Characteristics in Young Adults Age 18 to 49 Years: A Population-Based Study
Background/Purpose: While fractures in both the elderly and pediatric populations have been extensively investigated, comparatively little attention has been given to the age-group in between.…Abstract Number: 1215 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Chest Radiography As a Screening Tool to Detect Fragile Spine Fractures
Background/Purpose: Osteoporosis screening is essential in the management of rheumatoid arthritis, and evaluation of fragile spine fractures is one of the recommended examinations. Digital chest…Abstract Number: 1216 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Odontoid Fractures in the Elderly: An Unknown Osteoporotic Fracture?
Background/Purpose: Current WHO definition of osteoporosis excludes cervical fractures. However, in atraumatic odontoid fractures, mainly reported by orthopedic surgeons, bone status has not been described…Abstract Number: 1217 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Evaluation of Post Fracture Management in Males at a Veterans Affairs Health System
Background/Purpose: The worldwide incidence of hip fractures in men is rising, and by 2050 is projected to increase by 310%. Increased hip fracture rates may…Abstract Number: 1218 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Caffeine Consumption and Risk of Osteoporosis: A Cross Sectional Study of 3, 210 Patients from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
Background/Purpose: Adenosine regulates bone metabolism. In vitro studies suggest that direct stimulation of the adenosine A2A receptor increases osteoblasts and diminishes osteoclasts, and thus inhibition…Abstract Number: 1219 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Associations between Muscle Mass and Function with Bone Microarchitecture and Bone Strength in Postmenopausal Women
Background/Purpose: Most studies on sarcopenia and osteoporosis involve elderly populations. However, because postmenopausal hypoestrogenism is able to negatively modulate bone and muscle mass, it is…Abstract Number: 1220 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Effect of Anti-Diabetic Medications on Fracture Risk in Type II Diabetes Mellitus
Background/Purpose: Risk of osteoporotic fracture in type II Diabetes Mellitus is conflicting and possibly related to the anti-diabetic medication used. There is evidence to suggest…Abstract Number: 1221 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Differences in BONE Metabolism between Intermittent and Continuous Treatment with LHRH Agonists in Prostate Cancer Patients
Background/Purpose: Prostate cancer is the most common male malignancy. It is hormone dependent and androgenic inhibition with LHRH agonists is one of the mainstays of…Abstract Number: 1222 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Impact of Bariatric Surgery on Bone Mineral Density : Observational Study of 110 Patients Followed up in a Specialised Centre for the Treatment of Obesity in France
Background/Purpose: Bariatric surgery is used to treat severe obesity. We aimed to investigate the incidence of significant bone mineral density (BMD) loss at 6 and…Abstract Number: 1223 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and the Risks of Fracture and Low Mineral Density: Review of the Literature and Meta-Analysis of Observational Cohorts
Background/Purpose: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), such as Crohn disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are associated with a decreased bone mineral density caused by chronic…Abstract Number: 1224 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
BONE Metabolism in LIVER Transplant Patients Two-Year Study. Influence of Medical Intervention PRIOR to Surgery and Antiresorptive Treatment
Background/Purpose: Osteoporosis is a frequent complication in patients with chronic liver diseases, mainly in advanced stages or with evidence of cholestasis. During the first few…Abstract Number: 1225 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
BONE Mineral Density and Vertebral Fractures in Gaucher Disease Patients Treated with Imiglucerase
Background/Purpose: Osteopenia and osteoporosis (OP) have been described in patients with Gaucher disease (GD) but there are very few reports about bone mass in GD…
