Osteoporosis, a disease characterized by low bone mass and alterations of bone
microarchitecture, leading to an increased risk for fragility fractures and, eventually, to …

Individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have an increased risk of bone fragility
fractures compared to nondiabetic subjects. This increased fracture risk may occur despite …

Purpose Trabecular bone score (TBS) is a grey-level textural measurement acquired from
dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry lumbar spine images and is a validated index of bone …

Type 1 and type 2 diabetes are generally accepted to be associated with increased bone
fracture risk. However, the pathophysiological mechanisms of diabetic bone disease are …

Trabecular bone score (TBS) is an indirect and noninvasive measure of bone quality. A low
TBS indicates degraded bone microarchitecture, predicts osteoporotic fracture, and is …

Patients with type 2 diabetes have an increased risk of fracture despite having a higher areal
bone mineral density. This meta-analysis showed that compared with controls, diabetic …

Osteoporosis is characterized by compromised bone strength, predisposing to an increased
risk of fracture. 1 An accepted operational definition for osteoporosis in postmenopausal …

Substantial evidence exists that diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased risk of
osteoporotic fractures. Low bone strength as well as bone extrinsic factors are probably …

An underlying disease affecting bone health is present in up to 40 and 60% of osteoporotic
