Patients who use these drugs for a year or longer are more than twice as likely as nonusers to sustain a fracture.http://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250730-66.htmlTue, 29 Apr 2008 19:00:00 EDThttp://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250719-31.htmlCould be potential targets for new treatments, two studies suggesthttp://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250719-31.htmlTue, 29 Apr 2008 04:28:00 EDThttp://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250631-66.htmlWomen who have ever used alendronate, also known by the trade name Fosamax, may have an increased risk of atrial fibrillation, according to findings from a new study. However, the overall risk is low and is likely outweighed by the benefits of fracture prevention in patients with osteoporosis if they have no other risk factors for atrial fibrillation, the investigators conclude.http://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250631-66.htmlTue, 29 Apr 2008 04:27:05 EDThttp://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250630-66.htmlTreatment with the anti-seizure medication phenytoin appears to lead to the loss of bone mineral density at the hip in young women, whereas treatment with other antiepileptic agents, such as carbamazepine and lamotrigine, does not, U.S. researchers report.http://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250630-66.htmlSun, 27 Apr 2008 04:00:00 EDThttp://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250506-31.htmlResearch suggests the beverage contributes to osteoporosishttp://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250506-31.htmlSat, 26 Apr 2008 04:26:05 EDThttp://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250487-66.htmlEarly onset of the bone-thinning disease osteoporosis seems to be related to an increased risk of certain cancers, while later onset of osteoporosis may be related to a decreased risk of other cancers, researchers report.http://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250487-66.htmlThu, 24 Apr 2008 04:00:00 EDThttp://www.healthcentral.com/heart-disease/news-250289-31.htmlHigh levels are major source of cardiovascular death risk in those with chronic diseasehttp://www.healthcentral.com/heart-disease/news-250289-31.htmlTue, 22 Apr 2008 04:28:02 EDThttp://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250136-66.htmlTreatment with raloxifene safely increases bone mineral density in postmenopausal women with chronic kidney disease, and also lowers their risk of vertebral fractures, according to an analysis of data from the Multiple Outcomes of Raloxifene Evaluation (MORE) trial.http://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-250136-66.htmlSat, 12 Apr 2008 04:26:05 EDThttp://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-225373-66.htmlNovartis AG's Aclasta was more effective than Procter & Gamble Co's Actonel in increasing bone mass in patients with the bone-thinning disease osteoporosis, a study showed.http://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-225373-66.htmlSat, 12 Apr 2008 04:26:05 EDThttp://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-225367-66.htmlMiddle-aged people who have high levels of glucose in their blood seem to run less of a risk of suffering broken bones, Swedish researchers have found.http://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/news-225367-66.html
