The FDA has approved infliximab-abda, a biosimilar for treating multiple rheumatic diseases, as well as abaloparatide for treating postmenopausal women with osteoporosis…

MicroRNAs Provide Insight into Bone Metabolism

Lara C. Pullen, PhD  |  May 1, 2017

A recent study examined the functional variants within microRNAs that affect bone metabolism and possibly bone disorders. Researchers found overexpression of microRNAs may contribute to the osteoporotic phenotype, and the gene targets associated with two specific osteoblast-expressed microRNAs may be critical in osteoporosis…

Insufficient Evidence Regarding Osteoporosis Medications in Kidney Patients

Will Boggs, MD  |  April 11, 2017

NEW YORK (Reuters Health)—There are insufficient data to make evidence-based decisions regarding the benefits and harms of osteoporosis medications in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), according to a systematic review and meta-analysis. “We found low to moderate evidence for the effects of some but not all of the medications, and the evidence was limited…

Alterations in the Microbiome Are Associated with Changes in Bone Quality

Lara C. Pullen, PhD  |  March 28, 2017

By treating mice with antibiotics, researchers found that alterations in the gut microbiome impaired the mechanical properties of bone and depleted splenic B and T cell populations. The researchers suspect the decrease in bone strength resulted from the change in the immune system…

The ACR Teams with National Bone Health Alliance to Increase Focus on Osteoporosis, Bone Disease

Kurt Ullman  |  February 15, 2017

Bone health in general, and osteoporosis in particular, is among the most common conditions seen in rheumatology practices. The ACR recently joined the National Bone Health Alliance (NBHA) to reach out to other stakeholders. “In 2004, the Surgeon General of the United States published a report on osteoporosis that discussed in depth the gaps in…

Denosumab Does Not Increase Risk of Infection in RA Patients

Lara C. Pullen, PhD  |  February 13, 2017

New research dispels the fear that denosumab will increase the risk of infection in vulnerable populations with rheumatoid arthritis when it is prescribed in combination with TNF inhibitors or other biologics. Investigators found the treatment did not increase infection risk beyond what is expected for the patients’ disease, comorbidities and medications…

A New Approach to Fracture Prevention

Susan Bernstein  |  December 14, 2016

Glucocorticoids are widely prescribed by rheumatologists, and the effects of daily and cumulative doses of these drugs on bone mineral density (BMD) are important elements of a draft clinical guideline document presented on Nov. 13 at the 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C. Leaders of the ACR guideline project discussed their recommendations at the…

New Treatment Guidelines to Be Presented at the 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting

Thomas R. Collins  |  October 27, 2016

Two sets of guidelines—one on managing anti-rheumatic drugs perioperatively for patients undergoing total hip and knee replacements, and another that updates glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis prevention and treatment strategies—will be featured in sessions at the 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting this month. The Sessions Sunday, Nov. 13, 2:30–3:30 p.m.: Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporosis Prevention and Treatment: A New ACR Clinical…

Reuters Staff  |  October 21, 2016

NEW YORK (Reuters Health)—Patients can develop rebound-associated vertebral fractures after stopping denosumab, a new report of nine cases shows. All of the patients were considered to be at low risk of fracture, and the fractures occurred within nine to 16 months of their last injection, Dr. Olivier Lamy and colleagues from Lausanne University Hospital in Switzerland…
