This review provides insights into the potential for aspirin to preserve bone mineral density (BMD) and reduce fracture risk, building knowledge of the risk-benefit profile of aspirin. ..Aspirin use was associated with a 17% lower odds for any fracture (OR 0.83, 95% CI 0.70 to 0.99; I2=71%; six studies; n=511 390). Aspirin was associated with a higher… Continue reading #Aspirin and #fracture risk: a systematic review and exploratory meta-analysis of observational studies

Short #Sleep Is Associated With Low Bone Mineral Density and #Osteoporosis in the Women’s Health Initiative
.. In adjusted linear regression models, women who reported sleeping 5 hours or less per night had on average 0.012 to 0.018 g/cm2 significantly lower BMD at all four sites compared with women who reported sleeping 7 hours per night (reference). In adjusted multinomial models, women reporting 5 hours or less per night had higher odds of low bone… Continue reading Short #Sleep Is Associated With Low Bone Mineral Density and #Osteoporosis in the Women’s Health Initiative
