Abstract

Context: Thiazolidenediones (TZDs) are selective ligands of peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor-γ and have been shown to reduce bone mineral density. Recent results from several randomized controlled trials find an increased risk of fracture with TZDs compared with other oral antidiabetic agents.
