  1. Risk Factors Associated with Incident Vertebral Fractures in Steroid-treated Males with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

    18/01/2024

    This prospective study examined clinical and skeletal factors associated with new vertebral fractures over 12 months in glucocorticoid‑treated children and young adults with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The findings showed that having one or more existing vertebral or non‑vertebral fractures—and greater bone age delay—were the strongest predictors of incident vertebral fractures. These results highlight the importance of preventing first fractures and suggest that markers of glucocorticoid exposure may help identify patients who should be prioritized for early fracture‑prevention strategies.
