BACKGROUND
Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) is associated with a fracture risk that exceeds what would be expected based on bone mineral density (BMD) alone, suggesting impaired bone quality. In contemporary clinical practice, patients receiving glucocorticoids are typically treated concomitantly with anti-os...

The identification of pathogenic PLS3 variants in individuals with X-linked osteoporosis (XLO) has demonstrated the importance of the actin-bundling protein plastin-3 for skeletal integrity. We and others have previously reported that Pls3-deficient mice display a skeletal phenotype that unexpectedly affects only the c...

Atypical femoral fractures (AFF) are rare fractures with characteristic radiographic features, most commonly associated with long-term bisphosphonate use. Their occurrence in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a hereditary bone disease leading to bone fragility, is not well understood. In this study, 138 adult...
