Cortisol excess drives skeletal fragility beyond BMD in endogenous Cushing's syndrome
Cushing's Syndrome Weakens Bones Even When Scans Look Fine
Narrative review of skeletal fragility in endogenous Cushing's syndrome reports densitometric osteoporosis in approximately 30-50% and fragi…
Up to 76% of people with Cushing's syndrome suffer fractures, often with normal bone density. Standard scans miss the danger.
Exercise may boost upper-limb bone density in women
Exercise May Improve Upper-limb Bone Health in Women
A meta-analysis of 1,880 women finds exercise may improve upper-limb bone density, but fracture prevention remains unproven.
New data suggests that specific exercise programs may improve bone density in the upper limbs for women, potentially supporting bone health.
