Weight-bearing activities may strengthen bone and reduce fractures in youth with type 1 diabetes, a small cross-sectional study of girls with or without type 1 diabetes suggests, but more research is needed.

Your bones need to be strong and healthy. But some things aren’t so good for them. WebMD shows you if your bone health is at risk.

Twelve new recommendations reflect the latest evidence on definition, diet, drugs, and education surrounding the relatively rare condition.

This algorithm looks promising and would alert clinicians to often-missed patients with high fracture risk who need to be investigated for osteoporosis, an observer says, but it needs further validation.

Generally speaking, women have smaller skeletons than men, but there are only small differences when it comes to bone density.

Bone microarchitecture differences observed between vegans and omnivores disappear when both practice progressive resistance training.

New data about the detrimental effects of zero gravity on the skeleton could have clinical implications for osteoporosis and other rheumatic conditions.

It appears that bone health deserves attention when adolescents are placed on gender-affirming hormone therapy.

Lateral spine imaging to detect abdominal aortic calcification during bone density scanning may identify older women at high risk for dementia, new research suggests.

This loss happens because bones that would normally be weight-bearing on Earth, like your legs, dont have to carry weight in microgravity - you just float, said the team from University of Calgary in Canada.
