The accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) in the organic matrix of bone with aging and chronic disease such as diabetes is thought to increase fracture risk …
Water constitutes roughly a quarter of the cortical bone by volume yet can greatly influence mechanical properties and tissue quality. There is a growing appreciation for how water can …
Hyperglycemia and oxidative stress, enhanced in diabetes and aging, result in excessive accumulation of advanced glycation and glycoxidation end products (AGEs/AGOEs) in bone …
The fracture resistance of bone arises from the hierarchical arrangement of minerals, collagen fibrils (ie, cross-linked triple helices of α1 and α2 collagen I chains), non …
Poor bone quality is associated with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), with patients having a higher risk of fracture despite normal to high bone mineral density (BMD). Diabetes contributes to …
One possibility for the disproportionate increase in fracture risk with aging relative to the decrease in bone mass is an accumulation of changes to the bone matrix which …
Since spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS) can acquire biochemical measurements of tissue quality through light scattering materials, we investigated the feasibility of this …

The incidence of diabetes mellitus and the associated complications are growing worldwide, affecting the patients' quality of life and exerting a considerable burden on health systems …
Raman spectroscopy (RS) is sensitive to the accumulation of advanced glycation end- products (AGEs), and it measures matrix-sensitive properties that correlate with the fracture …
