## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Orchidectomy is an accepted form of androgenโdeprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate carcinoma. Osteoporosis is common in elderly individuals and is accelerated by ADT. The authors studied changes in bone mineral density (BMD) after ADT and factors that affected those chan
## BACKGROUND. The osteolytic activity of metastases of prostate cancer was evaluted in relation to total body bone mineral content (TBBMC) and regional bone mineral content (RBMC). METHODS. Bone mass was determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TR
## Abstract Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer increases fracture risk, decreases bone mineral density, and increases bone turnover markers (BTMs) including serum type 1 Cโtelopeptide (sCTX), tartrateโresistant alkaline phosphatase 5b (TRAPโ5b), and procollagenโ1 Nโterminal telo
