This study will investigate whether the use of transdermal estrogen can improve bone mineral density (BMD) and bone microarchitecture in women with anorexia nervosa anorexia nervosa when used for 6 months.
The purpose of this study is to test whether liraglutide, a drug approved and widely used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, has an effect on bone mass and bone cell function. Type 2 diabetes may cause multiple complications, and it is well known that patients with type 2 diabetes have a higher risk of fractures. If Liraglutide can be demonstrated to have a positive effect on bone, this may be one among other factors to consider before the decision about specific treatment of type 2 diabetes is made for the individual patient.

Exercise that causes a decline in serum Calcium (Ca) as a result of dermal Ca loss stimulates bone resorption via an increase in Parathyroid Hormone (PTH).
This study is designed to answer the question as to whether the sympathetic nervous system is an important determinant of bone metabolism in humans.
This study aims to determine whether vitamin D3 supplementation is any more effective in improving musculoskeletal function when combined with exercise training compared with exercise training alone.

Osteoporosis is a highly prevalent disease in which non-adherence is a well-recognized problem. Non-adherence may be due to patients´ lack of knowledge, understanding, and involvement. In this study the investigators aimed to determine the effect of an educational video displayed on a tablet-device. The investigators hypothesized that an educational video would increase patients´ knowledge on osteoporosis and treatment at a two week follow up.
