Partial multiphase skeletal scintigraphy and single-photon emission CT of the cranium showed increased bone metabolism in the area of the right frontal bone, starting in the ethmoid cells in the roof of the orbit and extending slightly to the left (figure 2). Fibrous dysplasia of the frontal bo...

Regarding bone mineral density, lumbar spine BMD, heel BMD, and total body BMD demonstrate a protective causal relationship with ONFH, meaning that higher bone mineral density is associated with a reduced risk of ONFH occurrence. There is no genetic causal relationship between femoral neck BMD and...
Osteoporosis is a progressive condition involving structural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to skeletal fragility and an increased susceptibility to fractures due to low bone mass and high rates of bone turnover. Areal bone mineral density (aBMD) serves as the most reliable predictor of ...
Bone adapts to the loads that are applied to it (Wolff's Law), and higher mechanical loads lead to increased bone density. This is particularly true during childhood and growth (8). High-impact forces applied to the skeleton appear to confer the greatest benefit. Weight-bearing exercise is ...
Monitoring Bone mineral density is often measured every 1 or 2 years during treatment to determine whether a patient is responding to treatment. However, interpreting these results is tricky; the meaning of changes in BMD during treatment is uncertain because responding is not the same as gaining ...
Bone mineral density and prevalence of osteoporosis in non-menopausal women with rheumatoid arthritis Patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) are at an increased risk of spinal fractures due to the altered spinal biomechanics. Moreover, it is difficult to treat these fractures due to the combination...
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 ...
Literally meaning ‘porous bone', osteoporosis is a disease characterised by reduced bone formation, excessive bone loss, or a combination of both, leading to bone fragility and an increased risk of fractures (2). Bone mineral density (BMD) is the most robust and consistent predictor of osteopor...
the bone mineral density (BMD), bone volume per tissue volume (BV/TV), trabecular number (Tb.N) and trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) of the spine and femur were decreased in the Saline group, and the trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) was noticeably increased (Fig.6d-h). Synchronously, there wa...
