Local and Systemic Factors in the Pathogenesis of Osteoporosis
Abstract
OSTEOPOROSIS is defined as a decrease in bone mass and strength leading to an increase in fractures, particularly of the vertebral bodies, proximal femur, and distal radius. According to this definition, the disorder must exist before the fracture occurs, but at present we cannot reliably diagnose osteoporosis before a fracture. Moreover, most hip and wrist fractures occur after a fall, and if there is no trauma the osteoporosis may never become clinically apparent. Even in vertebral crush fractures, which usually occur with little or no trauma, the defect in bone mass and strength may exist for years before fracture occurs. . . .

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.
