Identifying Individuals At Risk of Glucocorticoid-Induced Impairment of Bone Disease
Previous studies have shown that there is a large inter-individual variability in the degree of bone loss during glucocorticoid treatment, and while some patients experience extensive bone loss other patients' bone mass remains stable. The aim of the study is to find a biomarker that can be used to identify …
