Therapeutic Inertia and Low Patient Compliance: Major Contributors to Low Treatment Rates in Patients with Osteoporosis with Clinical Vertebral Compression Fractures
Background/Purpose: Treatment rates with pharmacologic therapy after osteoporotic vertebral fracture are very low in the United States. Underlying causes of these low treatment rates are…Abstract Number: 1148 • ACR Convergence 2021
Prevalence and Risk Factors of Insufficiency Fractures of the Foot and Ankle Joint in Rheumatic and Musculoskeletal Diseases
Background/Purpose: Unlike fragility fractures, high-trauma and insufficiency fractures (IF) are not classically considered osteoporotic fractures. Patients with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMD), especially those with…Abstract Number: 1265 • ACR Convergence 2021
Paradoxical Effect of Vitamin D on Bone Mineral Density in SLE
Background/Purpose: Osteoporosis with fractures is consistently one of the top three items in the SLICC/ACR Damage Index in cohort studies internationally. As vitamin D insufficiency…Abstract Number: 1859 • ACR Convergence 2021
Bone Mineral Density in Patients Diagnosed with Giant Cell Arteritis Taking Glucocorticoids: A Case-control Study
Background/Purpose: The standard treatment for Giant Cell Arteritis (GCA) is high dose glucocorticoid (GC). It is unknown whether steroids are more detrimental to the spine…Abstract Number: 0106 • ACR Convergence 2020
A Machine Learning-derived Radiomics Nomogram for Diagnosis of Osteoporosis and Osteopenia
Background/Purpose: To discriminate osteoporosis and osteopenia using a quantitative computed tomography (QCT) radiomics signatures and clinical variables.Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 635 patients with QCT images and clinical characteristics from November…Abstract Number: 1896 • ACR Convergence 2020
No Relationship Between Lumbar Bone Mineral Density and Syndesmophyte Formation at the Same Level – A Multilevel Analysis in Patients with Radiographic Axial Spondyloarthritis
Background/Purpose: In radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA) it has been hypothesized that inflammation-driven bone loss triggers bone repair but at anatomically distinct sites of the same…Abstract Number: 0108 • ACR Convergence 2020
The Relationship Between Body Fat Percentage and Bone Mineral Density in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients
Background/Purpose: Currently, Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scans are used to determine fracture risk by calculating Bone Mineral Density (BMD). It is well established that body…Abstract Number: 1973 • ACR Convergence 2020
Treatment Sequences with Romosozumab Before or After Antiresorptive Medication
Background/Purpose: Prior studies of anabolic/antiresorptive treatment sequences indicate that using teriparatide first followed by an antiresorptive results in greater bone mineral density (BMD) gains, particularly…Abstract Number: 0112 • ACR Convergence 2020
Description of Risk Factors at Baseline and Need of Bone Agent According to Hadji Recommendations in Patients Taking Aromatase Inhibitors as Breast Cancer Therapy
Background/Purpose: A well-known adverse effect of aromatase inhibitors (AI) in the bone is the loss of mineral density with the consequent increased risk of fracture…Abstract Number: 1975 • ACR Convergence 2020
Predicting Bone Mineral Density of Lumbar Vertebrae by Assessing Plain Film with Deep Learning
Background/Purpose: Osteoporosis is a silent disease characterized by a decrease in bone mineral density (BMD), causing bone fragility and increased risk of fracture. The most…Abstract Number: 0114 • ACR Convergence 2020
Incidence of Follow-Up Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Scanner Error: A Contributor to Precision Error
Background/Purpose: Osteoporosis is characterized by decreased bone tissue microarchitecture. This leads to reduced bone density and quality and is a significant contributor to morbidity, mortality,…Abstract Number: 0115 • ACR Convergence 2020
Improving Osteoporosis Screening in Men at a Resident-run Primary Care Clinic: A Quality Improvement Project
Background/Purpose: There are known indications for osteoporosis screening in women. However, osteoporosis also occurs in men and fragility fractures are linked to increased morbidity and…Abstract Number: 0125 • ACR Convergence 2020
A Resident-Led Interdisciplinary Quality Improvement Initiative to Increase Osteoporosis Screening in an Urban Clinic
Background/Purpose: Osteoporosis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. The USPSTF recommends screening all women age 65 and older or…Abstract Number: 0128 • ACR Convergence 2020
Short-Term Monitoring of Denosumab Effect in Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Aromatase Inhibitors Using Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry (REMS) Technology on Femoral Neck
Background/Purpose: The aim of the study was to carry out a short-term monitoring of the effect of aromatase inhibitors (AI) and Denosumab on bone health…Abstract Number: 0129 • ACR Convergence 2020
Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporosis in Patients with Chronic Inflammatory Rheumatic Diseases: A Multivariate Linear Regression Analysis Identifying Factors Affecting Bone Mineral Density
Background/Purpose: Rheumatic diseases are associated with increased systemic bone loss and fracture risk related to chronic inflammation, disease-specific, general and demographic risk factors as well…
