Risk of osteoporotic fractures in diabetic patients treated with glitazonesReview articles
Osteoporosis is a common complication in patients with both types of diabetes mellitus. In type 2 diabetes patients, the important risk factors for osteoporotic fractures include the use of glitazones. As selective agonists of a group of nuclear receptors, the so-called pe roxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-y), glitazones participate in the inhibition of osteoblast differentiation and sti mulation of osteoclasts from haematopoietic cells. The effect is clinically manifested by a higher rate of osteoporotic fractures at pre dilection sites (the distal lower extremities and upper extremities), especially in the population at risk, i.e. women over 65 years of age. This potentially negative effect should be borne in mind when long-term therapy with glitazones is indicated in patients at risk of os teoporosis.
