Abstract

The purpose of this document, a result of the harmonisation and revision of Guidelines published separately by the SIMFER, SIOMMMS/SIR, and SIOT associations, is to provide practical indications based on specific levels of evidence and various grades of recommendations, drawn from available literature, for the management of osteoporosis and for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of fragility fractures. These indications were discussed and formally approved by the delegates of the Italian Scientific Associations involved in the project (SIE, SIGG, SIMFER, SIMG, SIMI, SIOMMMS, SIR, and SIOT).

  • Bone mineral density loss is related to hormonal imbalance, aging, environmental factors, lifestyle, and genetic predisposition.

    “It is generally accepted that BMD loss is related to hormonal imbalance, aging, environmental factors, lifestyle, and genetic predisposition [18].”
  • Osteoporosis is a frequently observed complication in patients with chronic liver disease, especially liver cirrhosis, cholestatic liver diseases, and hemochromatosis.

    “Osteoporosis is a frequently observed complication in patients with chronic liver disease, particularly liver cirrhosis and cholestatic liver diseases.”

  • The estimated prevalence of fragility fractures is approximately 10-15% in patients waiting for solid organ transplants (kidney, heart, liver and lung).

    “The estimated prevalence of fragility fractures is approximately 10–15% in patients waiting for solid organ transplants (kidney, heart, liver and lung) [1].”

  • The current consensus is that chronic liver disease exerts a negative effect on osteoblast differentiation and proliferation.

    “Although osteoblast proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis are not as extensively studied as in osteoclasts, the current consensus is that chronic liver disease exerts a negative effect on osteoblast differentiation and proliferation [1].”

    From Bone diseases in patients with chronic liver disease (2019) · cites this paper as [1]

  • The guidelines of most osteoporosis societies briefly describe the causes of fractures and osteoporosis in patients with chronic liver disease as nutritional deficiencies caused by liver disease.

    “The guidelines of most osteoporosis societies briefly describe the causes of fractures and osteoporosis in patients with chronic liver disease as nutritional deficiencies caused by liver disease [1,15].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
