Kurmanji JM et al. – Depression is usually associated with changes in the endogenous hormonal system. The most important hormonal modifications are elevation of the
serum cortisol level as well as the reduction of endogenous sex hormone levels. These changes have advanced side effects on a bone metabolism and bone remodelling process, which
consequently, lead to the declining in bone mineral density and increase the risk of bone fractures, which is reported by current studies. Depression may be associated with low bone mineral
density among the Malaysian Chinese.Receive more summaries like this by joining MDLinx. We provide free daily digests of top journal articles in your field. >> Click here to choose your specialties. |
