Changes in Bone Density: Increaseddoi:10.1055/b-002-85518
Bone density or bone mineral density is the amount of bone mineral in the bone tissue. Bone density measurements are used in clinical medicine as an indicator of osteoporosis, a disease that makes your bones weak, and increases the risk of fractures. It can also indicate your response to trea...
6BONE MINERAL DENSITY COCs have been reported to enhancebone mineral density(BMD) in older women (30–34). This attribute would make them a logical choice forperimenopausal womenwho need to have a “bone bank” of increased bone mineral density prior to menopause. ...
This suggests that GC does not blunt the osteoanabolic effect of ABL on trabecular bone density at these skeletal sites. Moreover, the increased trabecular bone density was accompanied by higher bone strength, although it was statistically significant for L4 only. Despite GCs blunting effect on ...
The study focused on the most common form of the cancer in children, a subtype of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Although long-term survival rates for children and adolescents with the medical condition have greatly increased in recent decades - now exceeding 85 percent - outcomes in high-risk sub...
The key findings of our analysis were that higher residential green space exposure was associated with increased bone mineral density as well as with a lower risk of having a low bone mass in children aged 4 to 6 years. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to assess ...
Osteoporosis is characterized by reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and deteriorated bone architecture, leading to increased fracture risk. Osteoporosis and its major complication, osteoporotic fracture, which affects both men and women, cause substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide1. Although women ...
Microgravity promotes an increased bone turnover, and this obstructs space exploration. This bone loss can be slowed down by exercise on treadmills or resistive apparatus. The objective of this systematic review is to provide a current overview of the state of the art of the field of bone ...
Histing et al. found no significant differences in bone density [78]. However, their study reported an increase in adipocytes in bone, although they did not perform a glucose tolerance test. In particular, higher levels of leptin and IL-6 were found, suggesting an increased overall state of...
As might be anticipated from consideration of the two-phasecompositionof bone, variation in the mineral-collagen ratio leads to changes in physical properties: less mineral tends ultimately to greater flexibility and more mineral to increased brittleness. Optimal ratios, as reflected in maximal tensile...
