Osteoporosis , a disease of your bones, is tricky. You may not even know you have it until you break a bone, and that means that the disease is already well advanced. If you break the word osteoporosis into its roots, you get osteo and poros osteo means bone and poros translates to porous (holey). Even healthy bones have holes in them as part of their intricate honeycomb-like design. Bones affected by osteoporosis , though, have bigger holes, making them weaker and more prone to breaking. The amazing thing about osteoporosis is that it's preventable.

64. Osteoporosis: The Bone Thief - Age Page - Health Information Helen had osteoporosis, but she didn’t know it. osteoporosis is a disease that thins and weakens bones to the point where they break easily — especially http://www.niapublications.org/engagepages/osteo.asp

Order Print Copies Osteoporosis: The Bone Thief Helen grew up on a farm in the Midwest. She drank lots of milk as a child. She also walked a lot, but not after high school. That was when she became a secretary in a local law office. Then she never found time to exercise. Helen went through menopause at age 47. At age 61, she was looking forward to retirement — traveling and working in her garden. But then she slipped on a small rug in her kitchen and broke her hip. After Helen recovered, getting around was a lot more difficult — she needed a cane to walk. Helen had osteoporosis, but she didn’t know it. Osteoporosis is a disease that thins and weakens bones to the point where they break easily — especially bones in the hip, backbone (spine), and wrist. Osteoporosis is called the “silent disease” — you may not notice any changes until a bone breaks. But your bones have been losing strength over many years. Bone is living tissue. To keep bones strong, the body is always breaking down old bone and replacing it with new tissue. As people enter their forties and fifties, more bone is broken down than is replaced. A close look at the inside of bone would show something that looks like a honeycomb. When you have osteoporosis, the spaces in this honeycomb grow larger. The outer shell of your bones also gets thinner. All this makes your bones weaker.

Professor Jean-Yves Reginster, President of ESCEO, noted, "The ESCEO European guidance is convergent with the WHO report on how to assess and treat postmenopausal women with or at risk from osteoporosis. Moreover, cost-effectiveness analyses which illustrate scenarios based on a UK setting provide a starting point for health policy makers and health care providers to develop national guidelines on diagnosis and intervention thresholds." The ESCEO guidance is very timely, as across Europe, osteoporosis is a major public health problem with serious medical and economic impact. In 2000, throughout the region, there were an estimated 620,000 new hip fractures, 574,000 forearm fractures, 250,000 shoulder fractures, and 620,000 spinal fractures in men and women aged 50 years or over, accounting for 34.8% of such fractures worldwide(4). There are more than 2.7 million osteoporotic fractures in men and women in Europe at a direct cost of 36 billion euros(5). It is estimated that by 2050, direct costs related to hip fractures will increase to 76.7 billion euros(6).

Public release date: 13-Mar-2008 E-mail Article Contact: janice blondeau news@iofbonehealth.org International Osteoporosis Foundation IOF recognizes ESCEO European guidance for osteoporosis diagnosis and management A comprehensive guide to applying new FRAX™ tool and WHO technical report in European daily practice The International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) has welcomed the recently published paper European guidance for the diagnosis and management of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women(1) from the European Society for Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis (ESCEO). This paper constitutes a roadmap for European countries to practically implement the new FRAX™ tool based on the WHO technical report, Assessment of osteoporosis at the primary health care level(2,3). The European guidance, published in Osteoporosis International, is a critical review of diagnostic methods, treatments and their monitoring options. It also shows case-finding strategies supported by health economic data. IOF sees the ESCEO guidance as a positive move towards using the FRAX™ algorithm in daily practice. The WHO report and FRAX™ tool, released on February 21, 2008, help health practitioners to better understand the new paradigm for diagnosis and management of people at risk of developing fragility fractures.

They provide structure, protect organs, anchor muscles, and store calcium. Adequate calcium consumption and weight bearing physical activity build strong bones, optimizes bone mass, and may reduce the risk of osteoporosis later in life. For more information on bone health and osteoporosis please visit the National Osteoporosis Foundation Peak Bone Mass Peak bone mass refers to the genetic potential for bone density. By the age of 20, the average woman has acquired most of her skeletal mass. A large decline in bone mass occurs in older adults, increasing the risk of osteoporosis. For women this occurs around the time of menopause. It is important for young girls to reach their peak bone mass in order to maintain bone health throughout life. A person with high bone mass as a young adult will be more likely to have a higher bone mass later in life. Inadequate calcium consumption and physical activity early on could result in a failure to achieve peak bone mass in adulthood.

Necrosis In 2003, the first reports emerged of a "new" disease, called osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), found in patients who were using BFs. ONJ is characterized by bone necrosis and prolonged exposure of the jaw bone to the oral cavity. It has frequently occurred in older people who have had an oral surgical procedure or trauma to the jaw bones. The incidence of ONJ is the subject of recent research by John T. Grbic, DDS, MMSc, of Columbia University's College of Dental Medicine. Since the identification of ONJ as a disease, Dr. Grbic has made a continuous effort to identify the incidence, risk factors, and pathogenesis of this "new" disease entity. Earlier reports of ONJ have had a significant effect on the use of BFs to treat patients with osteoporosis and cancer. Dr. Grbic and his team have found in a study of more than 7,000 patients, that the use of BFs to treat osteoporosis has little or no effect on the incidence of osteonecrosis. However, when the disease presents itself in any patient is poses a significant treatment challenge for clinicians. Dr. Grbic presented this reseearch at the American Academy for the Advancement of Science annual meeting on Feb. 16 in Boston. Dr. Grbic is professor and director of the Division of Oral Biology and the Center for Clinical Research in Dentistry.

But if I want to maintain my independence, I can't afford to let my condition get worse either." "It seemed like it took forever for my bone to heal when it broke. I don't want that to happen again. It's so frustrating always worrying about falling." "If somebody had told me sooner what I know now about osteoporosis, none of this might be happening to me!" SOURCE: Based on comments made by a 70+ year old woman with osteoporosis. Ten million Americans have osteoporosis and another 18 million have low bone mass, placing them at increased risk of osteoporosis, according to the National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF). Osteoporosis often is called the "silent disease" because bone loss occurs without symptoms. The first sign of osteoporosis may be a fracture that occurs as a result of a weakened bone. A sudden strain or bump may be all it takes to break a bone.
