Brief Summary: This prospective natural history study examined the timing and positive indicators for reshaping of vertebral fractures (VF) in glucocorticoid (GC)-treated patients with chronic diseases. Complete VF reshaping occurred in 82.3% of patients, with similar frequencies in all diagnosis groups (leukemia, rheumatic disorders and nephrotic syndrome) in a median time of 1.3 years. Likelihood of VF reshaping was positively related to higher lumbar spine bone mineral dens...
