claimThe worldwide health organization considers osteoporosis and its associated fragile bone breaks to be two of the most serious public health issues because they affect more than 200 million people who have osteoporosis according to its estimates and women and men above 50 years of age face a lifetime fracture risk that exceeds 50 percent and 20 percent, respectively ().

claimThe economic costs which result from fracture-related health problems create a significant financial burden while they result in extended periods of disability and independence loss and they increase the risk of death which demonstrates that society needs to develop better methods for both preventing and treating these conditions ().

claimWhile glucocorticoids (GCs) are assumed to have a bimodal mode of action (increased resorption followed by reduced osteoanabolic activity), other drugs mainly induce increased bone resorption.

topicVitamin K Fracture Meta-Analysis
claimA complex interplay of osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and osteocytes leads to a regulated process of bone formation and resorption, whereby in osteoporosis, bone formation cannot sufficiently replace bone resorption.
