This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Evaluation of teriparatide treatment in adults with osteogenesis imperfecta
J Clin Invest. 2014 Feb 3;124(2):491-8. doi: 10.1172/JCI71101.79 patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) were randomized to receive either teriparatide (recombinant human parathyroid hormone) or a placebo administered subcutaneously daily for 18 months. The purpose of this proof-of-concept study was to determine whether teriparatide increased bone formation and positively affected skeletal mass and strength versus a placebo. The results at 18 months indicated that teriparatide significantly increased areal bone mineral density at the lumbar spine and total hip, as well as other bone formation markers. Post-hoc testing revealed significant differences between groups in type 1 OI patients, but not in type III/IV OI patients. Fracture risk was found to be similar, but the study was not adequately powered to detect a difference in fracture risk.
