This article discusses research on the role of microRNA in the diagnosis of osteoporosis, referencing the study "Five Freely Circulating miRNAs and Bone Tissue miRNAs Are Associated With Osteoporotic Fractures" by C. Seeliger published in the "Journal of Bone and Mineral Research" in 2013.Heath...
The only test available to diagnose osteoporosis is the bone mineral density (BMD) test, which is also referred to as the DXA scan (which stands for Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry). The DXA machine, which employs an extremely small amount of radiation, takes a picture of the bones in th...

4,10 Celiac disease can have serious long-term consequences, including fertility impairment, stillbirth and dysmaturity, osteoporosis, and malignancy.5,11,12 Diagnosing celiac disease is important because a gluten-free diet typically resolves symptoms and can prevent long-term consequences.4,5 ...
For 75 yr, the 72-h fast has been the cornerstone for the diagnosis; however, it has never been critically assessed using newer assays for insulin, C peptide, and proinsulin. Thus, the aim of the current study is to assess the need for a full 72-h fast for the diagnosis of ...
exosomes carry different peptides to target specific cells, which provides a strategy to construct more specific drug delivery mechanism. For example, Cui et al. engineered exosomes to deliver siShn3for anti-osteoporosis functions in mouse models and demonstrated bone targeting capability in vitro and...
Bone Density (DEXA) testing is essential for diagnosing osteoporosis and monitoring treatment, helping assess fracture risk and bone health, especially for postmenopausal women. X-Ray – Bone Radiography Mammography uses low-dose X-rays for early breast cancer detection, with advanced full-field digita...
(HealthDay)—Fecal immunochemical tests (FITs) have moderate sensitivity, high specificity, and high overall diagnostic accuracy for detecting colorectal cancer (CRC), according to research published in the Feb. 4 issue of the Annals of Internal Medicine
exacerbation11,12,13. On the other hand, (unnecessary) treatment with ICS may cause pneumonia and increased risk of osteoporosis14,15,16,17. Thus, establishing a correct diagnosis is essential for optimal treatment of asthma and COPD, but this can be challenging for primary care clinicians. ...
