Pathophysiology and evaluation of bone health in adrenal diseases.
Adrenal diseases are associated with an increased risk of osteopenia/osteoporosis and fragility fractures. Although dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry remains the gold standard for assessing bone mineral density, its limitations in accurately predicting vertebral fractures underscore the need for complementary diagnostic tools, particularly in the context of adrenal disorders. Vertebral fractures, often asymptomatic, may go undetected without targeted assessments such as morphometric evaluation. Incorporating advanced diagnostic tools, such as the trabecular bone score, into the evaluation of adrenal disorder-related skeletal fragility may enhance the identification of high-risk patients and support tailored therapeutic strategies. This review explores skeletal fragility from pathophysiological, clinical, and diagnostic perspectives and provides guidance to physicians for the management of adrenal disorders to improve bone health outcomes.
期刊介绍:
Well-established as a major journal in today’s rapidly advancing experimental and clinical research areas, Endocrine publishes original articles devoted to basic (including molecular, cellular and physiological studies), translational and clinical research in all the different fields of endocrinology and metabolism. Articles will be accepted based on peer-reviews, priority, and editorial decision. Invited reviews, mini-reviews and viewpoints on relevant pathophysiological and clinical topics, as well as Editorials on articles appearing in the Journal, are published. Unsolicited Editorials will be evaluated by the editorial team. Outcomes of scientific meetings, as well as guidelines and position statements, may be submitted. The Journal also considers special feature articles in the field of endocrine genetics and epigenetics, as well as articles devoted to novel methods and techniques in endocrinology.
Endocrine covers controversial, clinical endocrine issues. Meta-analyses on endocrine and metabolic topics are also accepted. Descriptions of single clinical cases and/or small patients studies are not published unless of exceptional interest. However, reports of novel imaging studies and endocrine side effects in single patients may be considered. Research letters and letters to the editor related or unrelated to recently published articles can be submitted.
Endocrine covers leading topics in endocrinology such as neuroendocrinology, pituitary and hypothalamic peptides, thyroid physiological and clinical aspects, bone and mineral metabolism and osteoporosis, obesity, lipid and energy metabolism and food intake control, insulin, Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, hormones of male and female reproduction, adrenal diseases pediatric and geriatric endocrinology, endocrine hypertension and endocrine oncology.
