A study of 100 patients referred for osteoporosis evaluation assessed by pDXA of calcaneus compared to central DXA of spine and hip found that T-scores of -1.6 and below by pDXA could be used to identify many high risk subjects (21). The population-based NORA study found only

and contributing to osteoporosis[2]. Tarantal et al. proposed that persistent prenatal and postnatal tenofovir can affect bone metabolism in some animals[6]. Other studies (McComsey et al., 2011; Stellbrink et al., 2010; Haskelberg et al., 2012) suggested osteopenia and osteoporosis are more detected with TDF regimens than abacavir/lamivudine.
