All scans and adjustments were performed by trained technicians according to the International Society for Clinical Density Measurement (ISCD) Standards28. After data on age, height, weight, sex, and race were obtained, the participants’ data were entered before each measurement. Using the ISCD ...
According to the US Preventative Services Task Force, DEXA screening is recommended for all men over the age of 70 and all women over the age of 65. Bone density should also be measured in women between the ages of 50 and 65 who are considered high risk for osteoporosis. In addition to ...
We hypothesized that low bone density following early adolescent pregnancy persists into young adult life. Methods A cohort of 256 women was identified by chart review. Participants were eligible if they delivered before the age of 16 years and were aged 20 to 45 years at time of study. We ...
We constructed age- and sex-smoothed reference values for areal bone mineral density (aBMD) of total body less head (TBLH), total body (TB), lumbar spine (LS), and bone mineral apparent density (BMAD) for LS, by means of Generalized Additive Models for Location, Scale and Shape (...
In this study, the DTI was identified as a risk factor for FS (OR 2.9) and was consequently incorporated into the VIDIA BONE score. In addition to age, female gender and bone density, comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, obesity or smoking can influence the risk of osteosynthesis failure...
Patients with inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFS) may have several risk factors for low bone mineral density (BMD). We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of low BMD in IBMFS and determine the associated risk factors. Patients with IBMFS with at
Osteoporosis is one of the most common metabolic bone disease among pre- and postmenopausal women. As the precursors of osteoclast cells, circulating monocytes play important role in bone destruction and remodeling. The aim of study is to identify potent
They weaken with age. Often people don't even know they have low bone density until they fracture their foot. But bones also heal, regenerate and continue carrying out their essential functions. They aren't solid like stones. They are always changing, even in adulthood, as they adapt to ...
Key: LS = lumbar spine; TH = total hip; FN = femoral neck; WB = whole body; DR = distal radius; BMD, bone mineral density; aBMD, areal bone mineral densityCG = control group; EG = exercise group; R = resistance training; F = football; HV...
This web-based calculator uses 11 factors (age, race, sex, body mass index, prior history of fracture, parental history of fracture, secondary diseases, steroid use, smoking and alcohol intake, and bone mineral density [BMD] as determined by a dual energy X-ray absorptiometry [DXA]) to ...
