Bone mineral densityCausal associationGWASMendelian randomizationOsteoporosisThis study, using Mendelian randomization, reveals a causal link between nitrogen oxides and PM2.5 exposure and reduced total-body bone mineral density, highlighting a potential risk factor for osteoporosis. The findings emphasize the...
Background It remains unclear whether gonadotropins or estrogen is responsible for early bone mineral density (BMD) decrease in Chinese women. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on 368 healthy adult women, aged 35–60 years. We measured BMD, calculated \{BMD\} decrease rates (BDRs)...
3.1.6 Bone mineral density (BMD) and bone quality BMD has always been an important index in evaluating the risk of osteoporosis and fracture. BMD, together with bone quality, define all characteristics related to bone strength.53,54 BMD and bone quality may decrease for a variety of reasons,...
The mineral content of bone reaches peak during young adulthood; as humans age, the mineral content of bone decreases and porosity increases, weakening the bones and leaving them vulnerable to fracture. Measurements of the density of bones, typically determined by x-ray absorption, can predict whic...
Early bone mineral density decrease is associated with FSH and LH, not estrogen 来自 掌桥科研 喜欢 0 阅读量: 353 作者:XY Wu,SJ Yu,H Zhang,H Xie,XH Luo,YQ Peng,LQ Yuan,RC Dai,ZF Sheng,SP Liu 摘要: BMD decreasing was significantly negatively associated with gonadotropins. After adjustment...
315,316,317,318 It was also found that patients with NAFLD were more likely to suffer from decreased bone mineral density and vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D supplementation can reduce the risk of elevated blood glucose and insulin resistance.319,320 This suggests that bone may be a bridge ...
risk of breaking a bone in the next ten years using information such as bone mineral density. If the risk is low, treatment may focus on just preventing bone loss and accidents. However, if the risk is high, medications are required to increase bone regeneration and decrease degradation[145]...
The present retrospective study evaluates the effect of on the bone density of Greek middle-aged men. By using the method of dual-energy X-rays absorptiometry (DEXA) we reviewed the bone mineral density (BMD) studies performed in the lumbar spine (LS) and/or femoral neck, in 97 men of ...
10,12,13 A comprehensive trabecular analysis revealed a decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular number (Fig. 1b–e) while the trabecular separation and thickness increased (Fig. 1f–g). There was also a slight reduction in the tissue mineral density in the cortical region, as...
The long-term effect of ovariectomy on the loss of bone mineral density (BMD) was evaluated in rats with and without estrogen treatment; BMD was studied in the lumbar and caudal vertebrae, measured by DXA, to find how the losses of BMD occur in the axial skeleton. Seventy female Wistar ra...
