You’ll get 2 scores after your bone density test: T score:This compares your bone density with a healthy, young adult of your gender. The score indicates if your bone density is normal, below normal, or at the levels that indicate osteoporosis. Here’s what the T score means: ●-1 a...
Reporting of bone mineral density values as T-scores or Z-scores: Comment on the article by Sowers et aldoi:10.1002/1529-0131(199911)42:11<2497::AID-ANR37>3.0.CO;2-2John A. ShepherdUniversity of CaliforniaSven PrevrhalUniversity of CaliforniaArthritis & Rheumatism...
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...
Intriguingly, these mice further developed significant trabecular bone loss after 12 weeks of HFD feeding as revealed by the significant bone volume fraction (bone volume over total volume BV/TV), lower bone mineral density (v. BMD) and trabecular number (Tb. N) of distal femoral metaphysis in...
Inappropriate Reference Range for Peak Bone Mineral Density in Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry: Implications for the Interpretation of T-scores 喜欢 0 阅读量: 41 作者:A.,Gürlek,M.,BayraktarM.,Ariyürek 摘要: An inappropriate reference range for peak bone mineral density (BMD) may result in...
Several categories of phenotypes, including bone mineral density (BMD), bone size (BS), geometry, and structure are considered determinants of bone strength[1–3]. Numerous studies conducted over last 2 de- cades have documented that BMD is highly heritable[4,5] and much effort has been done...
Muscle strengthening exercises are promoted for building and maintaining a healthy skeleton. We aimed to investigate the relationship between muscle strength and areal bone mineral density (BMD) at the hip in women aged 26–97 years. This cross-sectional
Patients with depression, especially women, are associated with low bone mineral density (BMD). Traditional antidepressants are associated with negative effects on BMD. Few studies have examined the effect of ketamine on BMD, and it remains unclear wheth
Vitamin D deficiency is a candidate risk factor for osteoporosis, characterized by decreased bone mineral density (BMD). We performed this two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to investigate the causal effect of vitamin D on BMD. We extracted 143 single-nucleotide polymorphisms from a re...
Furthermore, biochemical bone markers have not been associated with measures of bone min- eral density or low-energy fractures in RTT. Studies on bio- chemical bone markers in healthy persons have reported high levels in early childhood, peaking in puberty, and decreasing to stable levels in ...
