    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Arthritis; Bone; Estrogen;

    Sammanfattning : Objective: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with immune-mediated bone loss and thereby increased risk for fractures. Estrogen and selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) ameliorate not only the incidence and progression of experimental RA but also the immune-mediated bone loss. LÄS MER
