Bone Density Imaging: Evaluation of Equipment and Process of Care Quality in US Veterans
Background/Purpose: Osteoporotic fractures contribute to significant morbidity and mortality. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a valuable tool to identify osteoporosis, assess fracture risk, and monitor…Abstract Number: 1320 • ACR Convergence 2022
Performance of FRAX® Brazil and NOGG Methodology with and Without Bone Mineral Density upon Predicting Fractures on a Community-Dwelling Elderly Population with High Incidence of Osteoporotic Fractures: The São Paulo Ageing and Health (SPAH) Study
Background/Purpose: SPAH is a prospective cohort of ≥65-year-old community-dwelling elderly with high fracture risk (40.3/1,000 person-years in women and 30.6/1,000 in men for vertebral fractures…Abstract Number: 1277 • ACR Convergence 2022
Improving Patient Appropriate Osteoporosis Screening with Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry Scans in an Academic Internal Medicine Practice
Background/Purpose: Nearly 53.6 million people in America have osteoporosis with increasing incidence each year (Brauer, JAMA 2009). Almost 25% of people with a hip fracture…Abstract Number: 1322 • ACR Convergence 2022
Follow up of Incidentally Noted Vertebral Compression Fractures
Background/Purpose: Vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) in general represent a clinical diagnosis of osteoporosis, predisposing to an increased risk of additional fractures. However, a significant number…Abstract Number: 1304 • ACR Convergence 2022
Glucocorticoids Affect Bone Mass and Strength by Inhibiting Osteoprogenitor Cell Maturation
Background/Purpose: Glucocorticoid (GC) induced osteoporosis remains a significant health issue. While GCs are known to reduce bone formation and bone mass, patients treated with GCs…Abstract Number: 1323 • ACR Convergence 2022
Secondary Prevention of Vertebral Fractures Sustained Efficacy over Time
Background/Purpose: Vertebral fractures entail a notorious social and health problem, and their presence is the greatest risk factor for the appearance of a new vertebral…Abstract Number: 1305 • ACR Convergence 2022
Characterizing Bone Microarchitecture with MRI in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose: Fractures in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are more common than age and sex matched controls. Fracture risk is traditionally assessed by dual-energy…Abstract Number: 1325 • ACR Convergence 2022
The Risks of Osteoporotic Fracture After Lung Transplant: A Retrospective Cohort Study at an International Transplant Center
Background/Purpose: Osteoporotic fractures are a well-known complication of lung transplant (LT) and can significantly impact the quality of life of LT recipients. Although much is…Abstract Number: 1146 • ACR Convergence 2021
Study of Vertebral and Femur Fracture Prevalence and Scanographic Bone Attenuation Coefficient of the First Lumbar Vertebra in an Academic Hospital Setting
Background/Purpose: Patients with osteoporosis are prone to suffer fragility fractures leading to an increased risk of future fractures. Detection of osteoporosis has been led by…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…
