Abstract(s)
Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by decreased bone mass and deterioration of bone microarchitecture. It is a highly prevalent condition in western countries, and it is estimated to affect 5 % of the Portuguese population. Advances in the research in the pathophysiology of the disease have been used for the development of new molecules. In addition, several clinical trials have been developed in order to determine the effectiveness of new drugs to treat osteoporosis.
