To determine whether the uterus plays any role in mediating the ability of estrogen to conserve bone in the rat, eight groups of animals (n = 8) with their skeletons labeled with 45Ca were studied. Rats were ovariectomized (OVX), hysterectomized (Hyst), or given sham operations (Sham) and then pair-
Raloxifene (RAL) and alendronate (ALN) improve the biomechanical properties of bone by different mechanisms. The goal here was to investigate the effects of combination treatment of RAL and ALN on the biomechanical properties of vertebral bone. Six-month-old Sprague-Dawley rats (__n__ = 80) were ran
