Denosumab for bone health in prostate and breast cancer patients receiving endocrine therapy? A systematic review and a meta-analysis of randomized t…

2019

Highlights • Hormonal receptors positive breast tumor and prostate cancer are managed with endocrine therapies. • Endocrine therapies designed for breast and prostate cancer are often associated to serious adverse skeletal related events, such fractures. • Denosumab is a monoclonal anti-body binding RANKL which acts as inhibitor of osteoclasts activity, thus increasing bone mass. • Denosumab was showed to strongly prevent hormonal therapies-related skeletal issues. • Denosumab administration results safe in bone mass increase and reduction of fractures risk.

Calcium intake in the Mediterranean region

2014

A deficiency in calcium intake, is considered an important risk factor for the development of osteoporosis. Since the human body cannot produce calcium, individuals are recommended to maintain an adequate daily intake. The aim of the “Calcium Intake in the Mediterranean Region” Study is to evaluate the mean calcium intake in men and women between 40 and 80 residing in various areas of the Mediterranean basin. Enrolled subjects have been asked to fill out a self-administered questionnaire to evaluate the mean daily calcium intake from food, principle risk factors for osteoporosis were registered. A dual- energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) has also been carried out to evaluate bone mineral de…

The Effectiveness of Physical Exercise on Bone Density in Osteoporotic Patients

2018

Physical exercise is considered an effective means to stimulate bone osteogenesis in osteoporotic patients. The authors reviewed the current literature to define the most appropriate features of exercise for increasing bone density in osteoporotic patients. Two types emerged: (1) weight-bearing aerobic exercises, i.e., walking, stair climbing, jogging, and Tai Chi. Walking alone did not appear to improve bone mass; however it is able to limit its progressive loss. In fact, in order for the weight-bearing exercises to be effective, they must reach the mechanical intensity useful to determine an important ground reaction force. (2) Strength and resistance exercises: these are carried out with…
