Issue Date: | 2023 | Date: | 2022 | Publication information: | Osteoporosis International 2023; 34(2) | Abstract: | Low serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was found in 9% of patients attending an osteoporosis clinic, 0.6% of hospital patients, and 2/22 with an atypical femoral fracture. Hypophosphatasia was diagnosed in 3% of osteoporosis clinic patients with low ALP. Low ALP is a screening tool for hypophosphatasia, a condition potentially aggravated by antiresorptive therapy. | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/31737 | DOI: | 10.1007/s00198-022-06597-3 | ORCID: | 0000-0001-6649-032X |
