"Early Changes in Biochemical Markers of Bone Formation During Teriparatide Therapy Correlate with Improvements in Vertebral Strength in Men with Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporosis";
Osteoporosis International, 24 (2013), 12; 2971 - 2981.



English abstract:
Changes of the bone formation marker PINP correlated positively with improvements in vertebral strength in men with glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIO) who received 18-month treatment with teriparatide, but not with risedronate. These results support the use of PINP as a surrogate marker of bone strength in GIO patients treated with teriparatide.
