The objective of this study is to investigate if use of ONO-5334 has a more positive effect on bone density and biochemical markers of bone turnover than Alendronate (a bisphosphonate) and placebo.
The research question of the main study is: What are the short- and long-term effects and costs of helmet treatmentcompared to a wait-and-see regimen for a period of 6 months on skull asymmetry in children withmoderate to severe DP.The objective of…
To investigate whether bone mineral density is lower in apheresis donors than in blood donors.
Is the radiological, histological and biomechanical condition of bone altered after long term bisphosphonate treatment in bone that is subjected to either compressive of distractive forces.

The main objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of low BMD measured with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and quantitative ultrasonography (QUS) in Providentia (a residential care facility for persons with refractory epilepsy…
The general accepted Hueter-Volkmann law describes the inverse relation between compressive forces on the physis and the rate of physeal growth. So compression decreases and tension increases longitudinal growth. The observed deformities in patients…
