The journal publishes research on bone and mineral metabolism, focusing on skeletal health, bone fragility, and related conditions. Articles investigate the mechanisms of bone loss and formation, the impact of various diseases and treatments on bone density and structure, and the development of new therapeutic strategies. The scope also includes the relationship between bone health and other physiological systems, such as muscle and vascular health, and the assessment of fracture risk.
