When it comes to maintaining bone health, Fan suggested that older people should have regular check-ups and a bone density test every year. Bone mineral density is the most effective predictor of fracture risk and helps diagnose osteoporosis. Depending on the results of the physical examination, ...
Bone densityGenetic pathwaysAgingGut microbiotaOsteoporosis is a systemic condition of the skeleton that leads to diminished bone mass, a breakdown in the bone tissue's microscopic architecture, and an elevated risk of breaking a bone. The elderly and women particularly after menopause are ...
Women require more thorough follow-up, including bone density scans, electrocardiograms, and mammograms. Meanwhile, the minimal effective dose of antipsychotics should always be selected. We found no differences in extrapyrimidal symptoms between male and female patients, which makes medication adjustments...
Olga Troyanskaya and colleagues present genome-wide functional interaction networks for 144 human tissues and cell types. They identify important disease-gene associations by combining data from GWAS and tissue-specific networks. They also developed a we
Since red blood cells can come in different sizes, RDW looks at the range of these sizes in a blood sample. If anemia is suspected, RDW test results are often used together with MCV to figure out what the cause might be. Platelets ...
For the above reasons, the microkinetic multisite model for methanol synthesis on the Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 sample was established based on the density functional theory calculation (DFT) for the Zn/Cu(211) structure (Prašnikar et al., 2021). 4. Results and discussion 4.1. CuZnAlMg catalyst ...
Test–retest precision for both DXA and Pseudo-DXA scans was assessed for all whole body and standard subregional DXA body composition measures, and the results are presented in Table 5. Precision CV ranged between 0.21–7.04% for DXA and 0.15–6.67 for Pseudo-DXA. Precision for both DXA ...
