Changes in mineral metabolism with immobilization/space flight [PDF]
Researchers are still unsure of the accuracy of previous bone density measurements of their significance following a period of weightlessness. Rapid technological advances in the measurement of bone density will enable us now to measure bone density ...

Experiment K-6-27. Analysis of radiographs and biosamples from primate studies [PDF]
Serial high-contrast radiographs were obtained of both arms and the right leg of two flight and four control monkeys for the period L-60 to S+16. Longitudinal growth of the tibia, radius and ulna was linear over this period in the control monkeys. In the

[Dual photon absorptiometry in full-term newborns].
Revista medica de Chile, 1999 There is scanty information about bone mineral density in newborns. Normal values are needed to assess the effects of diseases and drugs used during the neonatal period.To assess bone mineral density in normal newborns.Total body bone mineral density was measured in 16 newborns with 39 +/- 1.2 weeks of gestational age, using a Norland dual photon ...

Effects of hypodynamic simulations on the skeletal system of monkeys [PDF]
A research and development program was undertaken to evaluate the skeletal losses of subhuman primates in hypodynamic environments. The goals of the program are: (1) to uncover the mechanisms by which weightlessness affects the skeletal system; (2) to ...

The effect of thyroid hormone on bone metabolism and osteoporosis [PDF]
, 1994 Thyrotoxicosis has long been known to accelerate bone turnover and thus increase the risk for developing osteoporosis, especially in peri- and postmenopausal women. Increasingly sophisticated tests of thyroid function have indicated that minor degrees of

Assessment of sarcopenia in young patients with inflammatory arthritis: a cross-sectional study
Scientific ReportsSarcopenia is a disease characterized by decreasing muscle mass and strength or performance. The prevalence of sarcopenia in rheumatic diseases has been evaluated in single diseases using various diagnostic approaches, generating conflicting data.
