Therapy of Osteoporosis in Men with Teriparatide

Figure 1

Changes in lumbar spine bone mineral density with teriparatide 20 μg daily. Although the figure does not show a head-to-head comparison, the increase in bone mineral density in men over the 11 months of the trial by Orwoll et al. tracks closely along the trajectory in bone mineral density women over the same period of time in the trial of Neer et al. (from Satterwhite et al. [26]).
