Bone metabolism in rheumatoid arthritis
unpublished
Preserved Fulltext
In active RA, bone resorption is increased and bone formation is normal or reduced in comparison to healthy controls. This uncoupling of bone formation and resorption with a negative remodelling balance leads to generalized bone loss. The pathogenesis of this altered bone metabolism is multifactorial, involving non-disease-specific factors (such as age, female sex and postmenopausal status) and disease-specific factors.
