A bone mineral density test, sometimes just called abone density test, detects whether you have osteoporosis, a word that comes from Greek and literally means “porous bone.” When you have this condition, your bones get weak and thin. They become more likely to break. It’s a silent cond...
A bone mineral density test or a bone density test is a way to detect bone health. It is also called a bone mass measurement test. Lesser the bone density, greater are your chances of having osteoporosis and fractures. It measures the density of calcium and other minerals present within you...

We used data from three large epidemiologic studies to test the BMI, height, and weight as predictors of BMD: (1) the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) with 11,390 women; (2) the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS) with 1,578 men and women; (3) and EPIDOS with 7,598 women. Dual-...
Every subject was interviewed by investigators using a structured questionnaire and all participants provided data regarding risk factors of OP and fractures. The patients underwent laboratory test, radiological assessment and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) screening. 展开 ...

To test the metabolic functions of BMAT in vivo we first used18F-FDG PET/CT in mice to determine if, like WAT, BMAT is insulin-responsive. As expected, insulin decreased blood glucose (Fig.3a) and increased18F-FDG uptake in the heart, iWAT, gWAT and skeletal muscle (Fig.3b, c, e)....
Table 1 The clinical characteristics, pulmonary function test, bone mineral density measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA-BMD), and CT bone density (CTBD) of the entire study cohort, participants < 65 years old, and participants ≥ 65 years old, according to smoking statu...
On left, for a given 30 SNV window, the −log10P of skatMeta test for 29 SNVs, excluding (that is, dropping) the SNV at position labelled on the x axis. On right, for given 30 SNV window on left, the −log10P of skatMeta test for all cohorts, excluding (that is, dropping...
thickness and density of the distal tibia in test subjects is decreased75, supporting the theory that µG negatively affects load-bearing bones more than non-weight-bearing bones8,27,28,29. In contrast to existing spaceflight data that indicates µG has little/no effect on non-weight-bearin...
