Impact of Hepatitis C Infection on Bone Microstructure of Patients with Hemophilia

Published: Nov 1, 2020
Abstract
Background Reduced bone mineral density (BMD) is a common finding in patients with hemophilia (PWH). In addition to contributing risk factors for low BMD such as orthopedic joint status (OJS), BMI, mobility, and HIV infection, hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has previously been described as a potential risk factor. Most studies have evaluated BMD by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), but impact on bone microstructure, assessed by...
