Brief Summary
This study aims to follow a cohort of osteoporotic patients treated with anti-osteoporotic drugs and to evaluate the impact of these treatments on the osteoporosis-cardiovascular-sarcopenia triad and on pain.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (5)
Endothelial dysfunction measured by FMD (Flow-Mediated Dilation) in patients with anti-osteoporotic treatment
FMD is a non-invasive technique. It was assessed using an ultrasound approach with a high-resolution linear array transducer coupled with computer-assisted analysis software. With this software, changes in the brachial artery could be assessed in real-time through an automated edge detection system. Longitudinal images of the brachial artery were obtained with the transducer fixed on the medial aspect of the dominant arm, approximately 2 cm above the medial epicondyle of the humerus. The transducer was fixed on the arm by a special arm-holding device. The brachial artery diameter was acquired as per a 30 s baseline measure, after which a cuff was placed around forearm (3 cm above wrist) and inflated to 250 mm Hg for 5 min. After cuff deflation, the brachial artery diameter was continuously monitored for 2-4 min to detect the peak artery diameter. FMD was determined as the percentage change in diameter from baseline to peak arterial diameter.

Cohort follow-up
OTHERExploratory study involving functional explorations in longitudinal follow-up, initiated in parallel with a treatment indicated in the patient's usual care and management.
Interventions
* Inclusion medical consultation, * Inclusion clinical examination, * Collection of biological samples (bone biomarkers, epigenetic biomarkers (microRNA)) and analysis of microbiota and genotyping, * Calculation of the Kauppila score on profile spine radiographs by the rheumatologist, * Cardiovascular investigations (FMD, "Flow-Mediated Dilation"); measurement of digital volume increase (RHI, "Reactive hyperhemia index"); measurement of microcirculatory perfusion of the skin at the hand (FLD, "Flow Laser Doppler") ; measurement of the stiffness of the main arteries (aorta) by the Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV), * Exploration of sarcopenia: questionnaires and tests: SARC-F, SPPB, muscle strength, * Quality of life component questionnaires Pittsburgh Sleep (PSQI), Numerical Scale (NS), Brief Pain Inventory (BPI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HADs), and 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) Quality of Life Questionnaire.
