Proposals for prevention and management of steroid-induced osteoporosis in children and adolescents

Brown, JJ, Zacharin, MR·2005·Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health

Abstract

The adverse effects of glucocorticoids on bone health are well recognized. In adults, evidence-based guidelines exist to base management of patients with glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is also recognized in children and adolescents with chronic disease requiring steroid treatment. Additional complexities in the assessment and management of growing children mean that evidence-based guidelines for this complex patient group have not been produced. Factors, which need to be taken into account, include defining osteoporosis in childhood and addressing the effects of chronic disease and glucocorticoid treatment on a number of parameters including the skeleton, growth, puberty, nutrition and vitamin D status. In the absence of randomized controlled trials to guide clinical practice, we provide proposals for the prevention and management of steroid-induced osteoporosis, drawing on the available evidence and our clinical experience of managing children and adolescents with steroid-induced osteoporosis.

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.
