Now a new study led by Margaret L. Gourlay, MD, MPH of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine finds thatwomenaged 67 years and older with normalbone mineral densityscores may not need screening again for 15 years. "If a woman's bone density at age 67 is v...
169 men and 267 women aged 20 to 69 years had bone mineral density measured in the lumbar spine and femoral neck by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). The male subjects were significantly taller and heavier than the female subjects. However, there was no significant difference in body ...
Bone-Density, Mineral-Content and Relation to Anthropometric Parameters in Normal Chilean WomenPumarino, HGonzalez, POviedo, SLillo, R
normal data for female Vertebral Bone Mineral Density is suitable for use in an Irish population. One hundred and fifty-six healthy Caucasian women of permanent Irish domicile had bone densitometry performed using single energy quantative computed tomography of L2, L3 and L4 vertebrae. We found ...
Bone Mineral Density Is Normal in Female Teenagers with Longstanding Type 1 DiabetesThe American Pediatric Society and the Society for Pediatric Research 1999 Abstractdoi:10.1203/00006450-199904020-00572Quattrin, TeresaWactawski-Wende, JeanDwigun, Karen A...
A Normal Reference of Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Measured by Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry in Healthy Thai Children and Adolescents Aged 5–18 Years: A ... A normal reference of bone mineral density (BMD) measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry in healthy thai children and adolescents...
This study was designed to determine age- and gender-based normative values for spinal bone mineral density (BMD) in a Chinese population. In addition, we compared our data with those of other countries and populations. Four hundred and forty-three healthy Chinese subjects, aged 10–79 years ...
Objective To appreciate use of different spinal bone densitometry, we compared results of spinal bone mineral density (BMD) measured by quantitative CT (QCT) and dual Xray absorptiometry (DXA) in normal subjects. Methods Four hundred and fortythree healthy subjects (189 males, mean age 46.9 years...
In the present work, we studied the effect of combined ovariectomy and diabetes on bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) and several bone markers in the rat. Four groups of rats were studied: control (C), ovariectomized (0), diabetic (D), and ovariectomized and ...
Our study aimed at comparing bone mineral density (BMD), geometric indices of hip bone strength, and indices of trabecular bone texture at the calcaneus in obese and normal-weight children. Fifty-three obese children (10.3 +/- 1.4 yr) and 24 normal-weight children (10.4 +/- 1.5 yr) parti...
