Possible Causes for severe osteoporosis

Osteoporosis

The challenge is further compounded in severe osteoporosis when the cortical thickness is affected more severely. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

A 38-year-old man had been diagnosed with severe osteoporosis most likely due to chronic SIADH. The SIADH was believed to be idiopathic. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We present a patient with multiple vertebral fractures in the context of severe osteoporosis, who, in the course of investigation for intractable spine and hip pain, was found [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Vertebral Compression Fracture

Nonunion of L3 with severe spinal stenosis was recognized in the preoperative films. Bone mineral analysis showed severe osteoporosis with a T-score of -4.7. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

BACKGROUND: Teriparatide (recombinant human parathyroid hormone 1-34) is increasingly used for the treatment of severe osteoporosis because it stimulates bone formation and [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In severe osteoporosis, the vertebrae become so weak that they collapse upon themselves, leading to spinal deformity. [my.clevelandclinic.org]

Prolonged deficiency of vitamin D can cause onset of severe and debilitating conditions, such as fractures, rickets and osteoporosis. [symptoma.com]

Vitamin D deficiency can lead to a loss of bone density, which can contribute to osteoporosis and fractures. Severe vitamin D deficiency can also lead to other diseases. [medlineplus.gov]

Osteopenia and Osteoporosis

Features of Osteoporosis patients 11.1 Cardiovascular and metabolic comorbidities 11.2 Arthritis in patients with osteoporosis 11.3 Respiratory comorbidities 11.4 Severe Osteoporosis [globenewswire.com]

Osteoporosis is considered more serious than osteopenia because the extent of the bone loss is more severe. [medicalnewstoday.com]

Both osteopenia and osteoporosis remain largely under diagnosed because of their asymptomatic nature, especially in the less severe stages of bone loss. [globenewswire.com]

Idiopathic Juvenile Osteoporosis

Two patients with idiopathic juvenile osteoporosis were siblings and one patient with idiopathic juvenile osteoporosis had a daughter with severe osteogenesis imperfecta [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Osteoporosis, or severe bone thinning, makes us at increased risk for bone fractures. Bone density testing is another recommended screening exam. [mana.md]

(after several years) Changes in fingernails: softer, crack or break easier Tinnitus: ringing in ears, bells, 'whooshing,' buzzing etc. [project-aware.org]
