There was no evidence to suggest adrenal involution, or ;adrenopause', in any of the cases, and no changes were present to suggest that the osteoporosis was the result of terminal excess of ;anti-anabolic' steroids. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Back Pain
Signs of Senile Osteoporosis Low back pain is common, and may radiate from the back outwardly. Back pain is worse when standing, especially for prolonged periods, and is usually relieved by lying down. [osteoporosis.newlifeoutlook.com]

Back pain due to vertebral fracture is a common expression of this disorder, yet surprisingly little information is available regarding the incidence of vertebral atrophy in older persons. [annals.org]
A lumbosacral film was taken of all patients, who were then divided into two groups: patients with no back pain were graded as 0, 1 by Seville's index (normal group); and those who had frequent and longstanding back pain were graded as 2,3,4 by Seville's [healio.com]
At such moments, the patient may feel back pain that is worse when walking or standing. In the case of compression fracture of multiple vertebrae simultaneously possible curvature of the spine, inducing muscle spasm and pain. [back.vsebolezni.com]

This loss of bone strength may be asymptomatic for many years, although significant loss may be accompanied by fractures and bone pain. [rad.washington.edu]
Osteomalacia/ Rickets: Osteomalacia is softening of the bones due to a Vitamin D deficiency in adults, which can result in decalcification of the bone, fractures, skeletal deformities, bone pain and muscle weakness. [physio-pedia.com]

Workup
A medical workup to diagnose osteoporosis will include a complete medical history, x rays, and urine and blood tests. The doctor may also order a BMD (bone mineral density) test. [news-medical.net]

Magnesium Increased
Urinary excretion of calcium and magnesium increased significantly. The findings indicate that treatment with 1alpha-hydroxycholecalciferol may be useful in osteoporosis due to aging or following corticosteroid administration. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
They displayed a columnar T-score -3.5 and femoral T-score -2.5, had been under antireabsorptive treatment since at least 12 months. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
The prognosis for osteoporosis is not deadly, but it does have its challenges. Increase in the likelihood of fractures, especially of the hip, present the greatest obstacle. [interactive-biology.com]
[…] less than resorption resulting in a net bone loss increased osteoclast activity is significant in areas of bone with large surface area such as the vertebral bodies, leading to vertebral compression fractures there is trabecular and cortical bone loss Prognosis [medbullets.com]
This lower fracture risk was independent of BMD and other risk factors. [69] Prognosis The prognosis for osteoporosis is good if bone loss is detected in the early phases and proper intervention is undertaken. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Non-weight-bearing, high force exercise were shown to have moderate effects at the femoral neck. [21] (level of evidence 1a) Clinical Considerations Metabolic bone diseases results in impaired healing rates, therefore should be considered when determining prognosis [physio-pedia.com]
Etiology
The etiologic factors that lead to senile osteoporosis still are unclear. Based on the available experimental and clinical evidence, we update our earlier proposal that zinc deficiency plays a role in the pathogenesis of senile osteoporosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Urinary 17-ketosteroid and 17-hydroxysteroid levels had been determined for a large number of women with symptomatic vertebral osteoporosis, but the data could not be interpreted for possible etiologic significance without FULL TEXT [annals.org]

Pathophysiology
Abstract Little is known about the pathophysiology of normal human and mouse senescence. On the other hand, the pathology of age-related disorders, such as senile osteoporosis, has been investigated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Senile osteoporosis, formerly known as osteoporosis type II, has been recently recognized as a geriatric syndrome with a particular pathophysiology. [en.wikipedia.org]
[…] awareness that osteo porosis is a treatable and partly preventable disease of the elderly, and not just the inevitable consequence of ageing, comes at a time of rapid progress in measurement of bone mass and in a better understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology [books.google.com]
Prevention
These findings suggest that administration of 1 alpha (OH)D3 is effective in preventing the occurrence of pathological fractures in senile osteoporosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
