نبذة مختصرة : Purpose: The effects of daily teriparatide (D-PTH, 20 μg/day), weekly high-dose teriparatide (W-PTH, 56.5 μg/week), or bisphosphonate (BP) on the vertebra and proximal femur were investigated using quantitative computed tomography (QCT). Methods: A total of 131 postmenopausal women with a history of fragility fractures were randomized to receive D-PTH, W-PTH, or bisphosphonate (oral alendronate or risedronate). QCT were evaluated at baseline and after 18 months of treatment. Results: A total of 86 participants were evaluated by QCT (Spine: D-PTH: 25, W-PTH: 21, BP: 29. Hip: PTH: 22, W-PTH: 21, BP: 32. Dropout rate: 30.5 %). QCT of the vertebra showed that D-PTH, W-PTH, and BP increased total vBMD (+34.8 %, +18.2 %, +11.1 %), trabecular vBMD (+50.8 %, +20.8 %, +12.2 %), and marginal vBMD (+20.0 %, +14.0 %, +11.5 %). The increase in trabecular vBMD was greater in the D-PTH group than in the W-PTH and BP groups. QCT of the proximal femur showed that D-PTH, W-PTH, and BP increased total vBMD (+2.8 %, +3.6 %, +3.2 %) and trabecular vBMD (+7.7 %, +5.1 %, +3.4 %), while only W-PTH and BP significantly increased cortical vBMD (−0.1 %, +1.5 %, +1.6 %). Although there was no significant increase in cortical vBMD in the D-PTH group, cortical bone volume (BV) increased in all three treatment groups (+2.1 %, +3.6 %, +3.1 %). Conclusions: D-PTH had a strong effect on trabecular bone of vertebra. Although D-PTH did not increase cortical BMD of proximal femur, it increased cortical BV. W-PTH had a moderate effect on trabecular bone of vertebra, while it increased both cortical BMD and BV of proximal femur. Although BP had a limited effect on trabecular bone of vertebra compared to teriparatide, it increased both cortical BMD and BV of proximal femur. ; Bone, 187, art. no. 117189; 2024 ; journal article
