Effects of drugs on bone metabolism in a cohort of individuals with traumatic spinal cord injury.

Although 76% of our cohort was found to have low bone mass, the only major risk factors were "Time after Injury" and "Level of Injury". Anticonvulsant use was more common in individuals with low bone mass compared to those with normal bone mass. Given the retrospective methodology of this work, our findings underline associations that warrant further investigation.
