• Describe bone remodeling and how this process is regulated through hormones and mechanical stress.
Hormonal control determines IF and WHEN bone remodeling occurs while the mechanical stresses determined WHERE remodeling occurs. Calcium levels fall causing parathyroid to release PTH, which triggers osteoclasts to degrade bone matric releasing calcium and restoring homeostasis.

Long bones are thickness midway along the diaphysis where the bending stresses are the greatest
Large bony projections occur where heavy muscles attachFetal bones are featureless Bones of bedridden persons atrophy (wethered)

Compound (Open)
Simple (Closed)

Comminuted- 3 or more pieces, usually elderly
Compression- crushed, vertebral
Spiral- twisting, from child abuse
Epiphyseal-fracture in growth plate,
Depressed- pushed in, usually in skull
Greenstick- not broken all the way through(similar to breaking a twig)
• Describe the process of bone fracture repair.
1. Hematoma forms.
2. Fibrocartilage callus forms
3. Bony callus forms.
4. Bone remodeling.
• Define osteomalacia, rickets and osteoporosis and describe the causes, treatments and preventions for each disorder.
Osteomalacia= (“Soft Bones”)
Rickets- group diseases characterized by softening of the bones due to lack of Vit. D childhood disease analogous to osteomalacia

Osteoporosis- Refers to group of disease in which bone resorption outpaces bone production
Causes for women-Insufficient exercise to stress bones,Diet poor in calcium and protein,Insufficient intake of Vit K,Smoking which decreases estrogen levels
Treatment-Suppliment of Vit D and calcium,Getting the calcium and Vit D in your body at younger age,Stop smoking or never start,Drink fluoridated water- hardens bones and teeth,Decrease intake of carbonated beverages- leeches minerals from bones,Wt. bearing exercise.
