Osteoporosis/osteopenia is defined as any T-score < 1.0 of femoral neck, total femoral, and mean lumbar spine (L1鈥揕4) BMD. Dietary intakes (sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, calcium/phosphorus, vitamin D (25OHD2+25OHD3)) and serum parameters (sodium, potassium, calcium...
Osteopenia is a term to define bone density that is not normal but also not as low as osteoporosis. By definition from the World Health Organization osteopenia is defined by bone densitometry as a T score 1 to 2.5. There are many causes for osteopenia including calcium and vitamin D deficienc...
The World Health Organization defines osteopenia as bone mineral density (BMD) at one or more sites 1–2.49 standard deviations below that of a healthy white female reference group (T-score –1 to –2.49) [ 1 ]. Prevalence Approximately 33.6 million U.S. adults were osteopenic in 2002, ...
Osteopenia is a disorder of the skeletal system characterized by weakened bone resulting from the rate of bone resorption that surpasses the rate of bone formation [1]. It is defined as below normal bone density but above the bone density of osteoporosis, with a T-score -1 to -2.5 [1]. ...
And the green leafy vegetables provide calcium, as well. We do need some calcium, so if you eat a vegetarian diet, it is possible come up on the short side of calcium. But, we don't have the fine detail yet to know exactly where you swing into the short side. The question of ...
Anticonvulsant, antidepressant or antipsychotics use is defined as a regular use of the aforementioned medication for three months or longer. 3.1. Categorization of patients with BMD We categorized patients into patients with normal BMD, osteopenia (−1.0 > BMD T-score > −2.5), andosteoporosis...
is mostly directed outwards, i.e. into air. For comparison purposes, Fig.2eand f show the same results but when the two individual patch antennas are in echelon as in Fig.2d(configuration B). The antiphase feeding again causes strong transmission, but it is weaker than that of the prime...
F, quantitative analyses of TRAP+ multinucleated cells (MNC, defined as having three or more nuclei per cell) generated by each group. Results were expressed as mean ± SD; ∗∗p < 0.01 versus control, unpaired two-tailed t test. G and H, flow cytometry. Bone marrow cells from 4-...
Nov overexpression inhibited basal as well as BMP-2 induced activity. The reason why basal activity was suppressed is probably because cells of the osteoblastic lineage express various BMPs, which act as autologous regulators of osteoblastic function (57, 58, 59). This may also explain the ...
Osteoporosis was defined as a BMD at either site more than 2.5 standard deviations (SD) below the young healthy adult woman mean while the osteopenia was defined as a BMD between 1 and 2.5 SD below the mean as suggested by the World Health Organization. Separate multivariable logistic ...
