Osteoporosis is a highly prevalent disorder characterized by low bone mineral density and
an increased risk of fracture, termed osteoporotic fracture. Notably, bone mineral density …

Genomic technologies have evolved rapidly contributing to the understanding of diseases.
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and whole-exome sequencing have aided the …

Osteoporosis is among the most common and costly diseases and is increasing in
prevalence owing to the ageing of our global population. Clinically defined largely through …

Aiming to identify novel genetic variants and to confirm previously identified genetic variants
associated with bone mineral density (BMD), we conducted a three-stage genome-wide …

Osteoporosis is a common disease with a strong genetic component. In recent years, some
progress has been made in understanding the genetic basis of osteoporosis. Genetic factors …

Osteoporosis is a complex human disease that results in increased susceptibility to fragility
fractures. It can be phenotypically characterized using several traits, including bone mineral …

Osteoporosis is a common skeletal disease characterized by low bone mineral density
(BMD), deterioration of bone microarchitecture and increased fracture risk. It is a complex …

Osteoporosis is a complex disorder and commonly leads to fractures in elderly persons.
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have become an unbiased approach to identify …

Osteoporosis is a prevalent osteodegenerative disease and silent killer linked to a decrease
in bone mass and decline of bone microarchitecture, due to impaired bone matrix …

Osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mineral density and structural deterioration of
bone tissue, leading to an increased risk of fractures. It is the most common metabolic bone …
