#osteoporosis -Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Management, Pathology- Fracture due to Bone Loss #boneweakness #osteoprosisnutrition #MNTOsteoporosis Osteoporosis, or porous bone, is a disease characterized by low bone mass and structural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and an increased risk of fractures of the hip, spine, and wrist. It affects both men and women. One in two women over 50 and one in four men will experience an osteoporosis related fracture in their lifetime. Osteoporosis means “ porous bone. ” Viewed under a microscope, healthy bone looks like a honeycomb. When osteoporosis occurs, the holes and spaces in the honeycomb are much larger than in healthy bone. Osteoporotic bones have lost density or mass and contain abnormal tissue structure. As bones become less dense, they weaken and are more likely to break. If you’re 50 or older and have broken a bone, ask your doctor or healthcare provider about a bone density test. CAUSES Your bones are in a constant state of renewal — new bone is made and old bone is broken down. When you're young, your body makes new bone faster than it breaks down old bone and your bone mass increases. After the early 20s this process slows, and most people reach their peak bone mass by age 30. As people age, bone mass is lost faster than it's created. Medical Conditions There are medical problems that can lead to osteoporosis. Below are some of those conditions: Intestinal problems: Celiac disease and inflammatory bowel disease, for example, can interfere with normal calcium and vitamin D absorption. Kidney disease: This condition causes decreased activation of vitamin D. Parathyroid and Thyroid problems: Hyperparathyroidism, which is caused by too much parathyroid hormone, can cause osteoporosis because the excess hormone extracts calcium from your bones. Medications Certain medications may cause osteoporosis. You don't need to avoid these medications—many are vital for their respective conditions—but you will need to take extra care to prevent bone loss while taking them. CLASSIFICATION Two categories of osteoporosis have been identified: ◾Primary Osteoporosis ◾Secondary Osteoporosis Primary osteoporosis is the most common form of the disease and includes ◾Postmenopausal osteoporosis (type I) Type I is associated with a loss of estrogen and androgen resulting in increased bone turnover, with bone resorption exceeding bone formation, and a predominant loss of trabecular bone compared with cortical bone. This type is also known as a high-turnover osteoporosis because of the reduction in the amount of trabecular bone or the inner soft part of the bone. People who suffer from this type of osteoporosis are also at a higher risk of spinal and wrist fractures. This is mainly because of the loss of bone strength and reduction in the amount of trabecular bone present in the vertebral bodies of the spine and in the end of the long bones, like your wrist. ◾Senile osteoporosis (type II). It represents the gradual age-related bone loss found in both sexes caused by systemic senescence, is induced by the loss of stem-cell precursors, with a predominant loss of cortical bone Primary type II osteoporosis is also called low-turnover osteoporosis because the rate of bone turnover is much lower in this type of osteoporosis. It typically results in hip fractures. Cortical bone forms the hard outside layer of all bones in the body and makes up most of the skull and ribs. Spongy bone is mainly found inside the vertebrae (the bony segments of the spinal column), and inside the ends of long bones like the femur (thigh bone) In a normal thigh bone, there is cortical bone along the outside of the shaft of the bone, and spongy bone inside the end of the bone, near the hip joint. With osteoporosis, there is reduced bone density and structure in the spongy bone, as well as thinning of the cortical bone. When your bones have thinned to the point that osteoporosis is diagnosed, the physical structure — and soundness — of your bones has changed. In particular: the cortical bone becomes thinner; and the spongy bone becomes less dense with bigger spaces forming between the bony structure of struts, which also become thinner. Common sites for a fracture because of osteoporosis include: the thigh bone (femur) at the hip;the vertebrae of the spine; and the wrist.
