After adjustment for race, comorbidity, fracture risk, and socioeconomic factors, bone density testing decreased significantly with each age category, so that women aged 71 to 75 were slightly less likely than (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) =0.91, 95% confidence interval (CI) =0.86–0.96), women...
ASSESSMENT OF BONE MINERAL DENSITY AND MARKERS OF BONE TURNOVER IN CHILDREN UNDERGOING LONG-TERM ORAL ANTICOAGULANT THERAPY. INTRODUCTION: Oral anticoagulants antagonize vitamin K action and potentially impair the carboxylation of osteocalcin, a protein that is essential for norm... Avgeri,Maria,Platoko...
We have studied a normal adult caucasian population (462 females, 264 males age range 20-84) using dual photon absorptiometry to establish patterns of bone reduction at the spine and hip. Subjects were either randomly selected from the electoral roll or volunteers. Bone mineral density reduction ...
To determine whether measurement of bone density predicts hip fracture in women, we prospectively studied 9703 nonblack women aged 65 years and older who

test, performance increased linearly with chronological age, and boys outperformed girls to a larger extent in tests requiring muscle mass for successful performance. Tests differed in the magnitude of age effects (gains), but there was no evidence for an interaction between age and sex. Moreover...
Age-related losses in bone mineral density (BMD), muscle strength, balance, and gait have been linked to an increased risk of falls, fractures and disability, but few prospective studies have compared the timing, rate and pattern of changes in each of these measures in middle-aged and older...
with Panx1 being the most abundant. All Panxs are expressed in bone, but their role in bone cell biology is not completely understood. We now report that osteocytic Panx1 deletion (Panx1Δot) alters bone mass and strength in female mice. Bone mineral density after reaching skeletal maturity...
Objective To investigate the changes of bone mineral density(BMD) and the incidence of osteoporosis(OP) in different age groups in the Manchus in Dandong.Methods The BMD at the distal of Radius and ulna of nondominant arm were determined by DTX-200 BMD detector made by American Osteometer Med...
The relative contributions of age and menopause to vertebral bone mineral density were evaluated based on the estimated weights for age- and menopause-related bone loss components using a mathematical model in 177 healthy female volunteers ages 35–81 years, living in a community in Fukui, Japan....
