Evaluation of pharmaceuticals with a novel 50-hour animal model of bone loss
Osteoporosis remains a major public health problem through its associated fragility fractures. Several animal models for the study of o...
Recovery of muscle atrophy and bone loss from 90 days bed rest: results from a one-year follow-up
Earlier studies found the recovery of bone loss after clinical immobilization to be incomplete. It has been argued that this is due to ...
