Presents a study on the diagnosis and management of osteopenia and osteoporosis, measuring the bone mineral density with the use of the T score. Uncertainty associated with a single bone mineral density measurement; Estimated on the amount of 95 percent of bone density measurement have a T score...
Summary Two-dimensional areal bone mineral density (aBMD) of the proximal femur measured by three-dimensional quantitative computed tomography (QCT) in 91 elderly women was compared to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) aBMD results measured in the same patients. The measurements were highly cor...
Precision scores for HR-pQCT range from less than 2.4% for density to greater than 3.3% for microarchitecture parameters, with the exception of cortical porosity (<13.7%).17 DXA precision is 0.55% coefficient of variation for the total hip. Postural sway was assessed (Biosway machine, 950-...
Pathway analysis of genes in methylation peaks show- ing P-value scores more than two-fold meaning P-values (≤ 0.01) at P5 and P15 was performed using KEGG path- way database (http://www.genome.jp/kegg/pathway.html). MSP Sodium bisulfite modification of genomic DNA from MSCs at P5 ...
Although the inertia moment value of the G7 sample was calculated to be slightly higher than the G8 sample at day 30, it can be said that the GSPE supplement generally increases AP and ML values in the fracture healing area, meaning that the GSPE supplement increases the callus formation ...
Using adult identified bone mineral density (BMD) loci, we calculated genetic risk scores (GRS) to determine if they were associated with changes in BMD during childhood. Longitudinal data from the Bone Mineral Density in Childhood Study were analyzed ( N =798, 54% female, all European ancestry...
High bone mineral density (BMD) is currently not defined by the International Society for Clinical Densitometry with a specific Z-score cutoff; however, it has been suggested that a Z-score greater than or equal to 2.5 is not normal. Institutional Review Board approval was obtained. We evaluate...
positively with density values, then fragmentation has been primarily structured by bone density; however, if a significant positive correlation is lacking, then we can rule out density-mediated attrition and shift our focus towards human causal factors. The Pearson’s r correlation coefficients for ...
