1) The document discusses osteoporosis, including the challenges it presents, its prevalence, risk factors, diagnosis, complications, management principles, and treatment goals.
2) Key points include that osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mass and deterioration of bone tissue, leading to fragility and increased risk of fractures. It affects millions worldwide, with over 50% of women and 20% of men experiencing fractures due to osteoporosis in their lifetimes.
3) Diagnosis involves bone mineral density tests to measure bone density and predict fracture risk. Treatment aims to prevent further bone loss and fractures, relieve pain and deformities, and improve quality of life.

18. the situation when the body requires and achieves an equal amount of bone resorption and bone formation
19. the amount of bone eroded by osteoclasts is equal to the amount of bone produced by osteoblasts, thereby producing a stable net mass of bone in the body Homeostasis Osteoporosis: Challenges to meet| BICC | 27th July, 2010
20.
21. It is the body’s way of maintaining bone homeostasis.
28. Remodeling: Activation Osteoclast precursor cells are attracted to a bone site and penetrate the bone lining cells. These osteoclast precursor cells then form activated osteoclasts that align themselves in direct contact with mineralized bone matrix. Osteoporosis: Challenges to meet| BICC | 27th July, 2010
29. Remodeling: Resorption The osteoclasts erode a cavity by removing mineral and organic components from the bone. The osteoclasts eventually die. This completes the resorption phase. Osteoporosis: Challenges to meet| BICC | 27th July, 2010
30. Remodeling: Revarsal Cells of unknown origin prepare the bone surface for new bone formation by smoothing the surface of the cavity and depositing a thin layer of a cement-like substance. Osteoporosis: Challenges to meet| BICC | 27th July, 2010

32. Remodeling: Resting The lining cells rest on the bone surface until the next cycle of bone remodeling begins. Some osteoblasts become osteocytes. Osteoporosis: Challenges to meet| BICC | 27th July, 2010
