Two women had a bone density Z-score below -2.0, one each at spine and hip. Conclusion Our preliminary analysis does not show a statistically significant decrease in young adult bone mass despite early teenage pregnancy in a cohort characterized by high parity, high incidence of multiple teenage...
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
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 (...
This operational definition is reliable, because the NHIS allows the prescription of osteoporosis-related medications only if the T score derived from DEXA is lower than -1. However, since the baseline bone mineral density of subjects at inclusion and the extent of bone loss in the form of T...
(30-year old) bone density as being normalfor everyone, irregardless of age, whereas the much more logical Z-score comparesyourbone mineral density to that of your age group, as well as sex and ethnic background. Now here’s where it gets disturbingly clear how ridiculous the T-score ...
[39], the Düsseldorf marrow disease score [40], and Bone Marrow Burden (BMB) scores [41]. The effect of ERT on bone mineral density measurements is more controversial [42]-[45]. While an effect of ERT on these markers is important to note, clearance of Gaucher cells from the bone ...
My T-Score is -4.4. I have a new doctor and he and my previous drs. all have a fit. He said he has never seen a bone density that bad. He gave me a month supply of the Forteo shots to try and a yrs. prescription and said it is different from the other drugs like Fosomax....
Scores for the 12-score method concentrated in the range of 6–12, with a mean of 10.33 ± 1.62. The cumulative proportions of new fractures and re-collapse corresponding to each score are shown in Table4, and the line chart based on these data is shown in Fig.3. The score corr...
