Senile osteoporosis is a growing public health challenge with significant impacts on the daily life of the elderly population as a result of its hidden nature,high prevalence,and high risk of disability.Suitable animal models that simulate senile osteoporosis are crucial for understanding its pathological mechanism and to facilitate the development of anti-osteoporosis drugs and identify new therapeutic targets.This review considers the most commonly used method for creating animal models of senile osteoporosis,analyzes their advantages and limitations,and discusses research progress in animal models in terms of evaluation indicators,to provide references for research using animal models of senile osteoporosis.

Ethanol is one of the major risk factors for esophageal cancer.The main mechanisms of ethanol induced esophageal cancer include the direct carcinogenesis of acetaldehyde,the genetic polymorphism of enzymes related to alcohol metabolism,the carcinogenic effect of reactive oxygen species,the disorder of nutrient metabolism induced by ethanol,and the synergistic effect of ethanol and tobacco.
