Osteoporosis is the most common bone disease in adults and confers significant morbidity and mortality in women. Universal screening is recommended for women above the age of 65 years; however, screening rates remain low. Bisphosphonates are the treatment of choice despite a decline in their use due to concerns about rare side effects. Treatment of osteoporosis dramatically decreases the likelihood of fragility fractures.
骨质疏松症是成年人中最常见的骨骼疾病,会给女性带来严重的发病率和死亡率。建议对 65 岁以上的女性进行普遍筛查;然而,筛查率仍然很低。尽管由于对罕见副作用的担忧,双磷酸盐的使用有所减少,但它们仍是首选治疗方法。骨质疏松症的治疗可显著降低脆性骨折的可能性。
