Over the last 20 years, Gherardo Mazziotti has carried out seminal studies in the field of bone and mineral metabolism with significant contributions in the knowledge of mechanisms and clinical presentation of skeletal fragility induced by endocrine diseases and endocrine therapies in oncological patients. Three of the main accomplishments of the researches in the bone field have been: 1) the application for the first time of vertebral morphometry for diagnosis of skeletal fragility in patients with osteoporosis related to endocrine disease; 2) the demonstration in humans that pituitary hormones (i.e., thyrotropin and prolactin) may have direct effects on bone and they may directly influence skeletal fragility; 3) impact of body composition on bone quality and fracture risk in subjects exposed to hormone deprivation therapies; 4) the application of artificial intelligence and telemedine in the therapeutic-decision making and management of patients with osteoporosis. Gherardo Mazziotti was also leader author of studies on glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis and multicenter studies in the oncology field investigating the management of bone metastases from thyroid cancer, the efficacy and safety of non conventional therapeutic schedules in acromegaly, the application of telemedicine in management of anti-osteoporotic therapies, application of artificial intelligence in prediction of fractures risk.
