Effects of Alfacalcidol on Mechanical Properties and Collagen Cross-Links of the Femoral Diaphysis in Glucocorticoid-Treated Rats

Abstract Bone fragility is increased in glucocorticoid (GC)-induced osteopenia even though GC-treated patients have higher bone mineral density (BMD), suggesting that the impaired bone quality may affect bone strength. This study was conducted to clarify the effects of GC on bone strength and collag...
