[Muscular insufficiency as a partial cause of osteoporosis. Significance for therapy (author's transl)].

Osteoporosis as a disease is more than a mere development of porosity of the bone. Between the axial skeleton and the musculature of the trunk there are mutaual relationships affecting circulation, metabolism and function which become active in the genesis and development of an osteoporosis. For this reason, therapy must not only be directed towards reossification of the bony skeleton, but also to the elimination of muscular insufficiency and improvement of the functional capacity of the musculature of the trunk.

[A double blind comparison of naproxen and indomethacin on the after-midnight-pain of patients with morbus bechterew].

27 patients with ascertained ankylosing spondylitis experiencing constant after-midnight-pain received, following three medication-free days, in a double blind, randomized, cross-over fashion indometacin (100 g/day) and d-2-(6'-methoxy-2'-naphthyl)-propionic acid (naproxen) (500 mg/day), as suppositories, for a period of six days each. The intensity of the night-pain was recorded daily. Naproxen was shown to be equally effective as indometacin in alleviating the after-midnight backache of ankylosing spondylitis. Side effects occurred under indometacin in 5 cases, under naproxen in 3 cases.
