etidronate and Cardiovascular Diseases

etidronate has been researched along with Cardiovascular Diseases in 5 studies

Etidronic Acid: A diphosphonate which affects calcium metabolism. It inhibits ectopic calcification and slows down bone resorption and bone turnover.
etidronic acid : A 1,1-bis(phosphonic acid) that is (ethane-1,1-diyl)bis(phosphonic acid) having a hydroxy substituent at the 1-position. It inhibits the formation, growth, and dissolution of hydroxyapatite crystals by chemisorption to calcium phosphate surfaces.

Cardiovascular Diseases: Pathological conditions involving the CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM including the HEART; the BLOOD VESSELS; or the PERICARDIUM.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Etidronate can increase bone mineralization in women with osteoporosis, but will it be useful for prophylaxis? Oestrogens can prevent bone loss, but is the increased risk of breast cancer sufficient to preclude their use? Do oestrogens increase or decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease? A combination of oestrogen and progesterone may avoid the increased risk of uterine cancer but what are the effects of long term administration? Do the potential benefits of hormone therapy justify the costs and treatment of large numbers of women who without therapy would never have developed complications attributable to oestrogen lack? (Herman J: Fam Phys 1990; 18: 39-40) Given these uncertainties, is postmenopausal administration of hormones reasonable or prudent? The current literature does not provide adequate answers to these questions."1.28Selections from current literature: hormone therapy in postmenopausal women. ( Froom, J, 1991)
