Section A

Systemic factors of inflammation that influence bone cell functions

This section relies on the fact that gut, skin, and periodontal inflammation can cause bone loss indicating systemic links between the inflamed organs and the bone. This area also considers that nutrients (e.g., iron) and certain drugs (e.g., glucocorticoids) are potent orchestrators of both inflammation and bone loss at the systemic level.
