The Epidemiology of Fracture in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke in Korea.
CONCLUSION: The CIFs of fractures are about 8% at 2 years and 13% at 4 years after acute ischemic stroke in Korea. Older age, women, pre-stroke fracture and osteoporosis raised the risk of post-stroke fractures. PMID: 31172697 [PubMed - in process]

Increased risk of cardiovascular events in end-stage renal disease patients with osteoporosis: a nationwide population-based cohort study
Conclusions The results showed that osteoporosis was significantly associated with the subsequent risk of cardiovascular events in patients with ESRD. When encountering patients with ESRD and osteoporosis, physicians should be alert to the subsequent cardiovascular risk in incident dialysis patients to prevent the subsequent occurrence of these adverse events.

Risk of Incident Atrial Fibrillation With Zoledronic Acid Versus Denosumab: A Propensity Score –Matched Cohort Study
ABSTRACTZoledronic acid (ZA) is an effective agent in osteoporosis and malignancy ‐related bone disease but may be associated with increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF), although current studies disagree on this risk. To examine the risk of incident AF among patients receiving ZA compared with denosumab in the first year of treatment, we performed a new‐user, active comp arator cohort study including privately insured Americans between January 1, 2010, and June 30, 2019. Individuals aged ≥50 years without known arrhythmia or advanced kidney disease who initiated ZA were 1:1 propensity score (PS)‐matched to i...

Prolonged risk of subtrochanteric and diaphyseal femur fractures after discontinuing alendronate treatment: A nationwide nested case-control study in Taiwan
Conclusion Discontinuation of alendronate therapy did not reduce the risk of subtrochanteric femoral fractures until it was discontinued for >5 years. In conclusion, alendronate use significantly increased the risk of subtrochanteric femoral fractures, and the risk may persist for 5 years after discontinuation.

Prescription patterns of Chinese herbal products for patients with fractures in Taiwan: A nationwide population-based study
Conclusions Our study identified the TCM utilization for patients with fractures in Taiwan. Integration of TCM treatment reduced the medical costs for hospitalization. Further basic research and clinical studies to investigate the mechanism and clinical efficacies of CHPs are warranted. Graphical abstract

Relation Between Hepatitis C Virus Exposure and Risk of Osteoporosis: A Nationwide Population-Based Study
Abstract: The effect of hepatitis C virus (HCV) exposure on bone mineral density without advanced liver disease remains debated. Thus, we assessed the relation between HCV exposure and the risk of osteoporosis. From 2000 to 2011, patients aged>20 years with HCV exposure were identified from the Longitudinal Health Insurance Database 2000. Of the 51,535 sampled patients, 41,228 and 10,307 patients were categorized as the comparison and the HCV exposure cohorts, respectively. The overall incidence of osteoporosis in the HCV exposure cohort was higher than in the comparison cohort (8.27 vs 6.19 per 1000 person-years; crude ha...
