Impact of cytokines and T lymphocytes upon osteoclast differentiation and function.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:The patient's perspective is becoming increasingly important in clinical and policy decisions. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the preferences of patients with, or at risk of, osteoporosis for medication attributes, and to establish how patients trade between these attributes. METHODS:A discrete choic...
