Anabolic resistance does not explain sarcopenia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, compared with healthy controls, despite reduced mTOR pathway activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundAgeing and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are risk factors for skeletal muscle loss. We investigated whether anabolic resistance to feeding might underlie accelerated muscle loss in older people with T2DM and whether dysregulated mTOR ...

Sarcopenia is common in ulcerative colitis and correlates with disease activity [PDF]

open access: yesIntestinal Research
Background/Aims Association of sarcopenia with disease severity in ulcerative colitis (UC) is not clearly defined. We planned to estimate the prevalence of sarcopenia in patients with UC as per the revised definition and its relation with the disease ...

Texture analysis of vertebral bone marrow using chemical shift encoding–based water-fat MRI:a feasibility study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Summary This feasibility study investigated the spatial heterogeneity of the lumbar vertebral bone marrow using chemical shift encoding–based water-fat MRI. Acquired texture features like contrast and dissimilarity allowed for differentiation of pre- and

Comparison of volumetric and areal bone mineral density in CT and scout scans using spectral detector technology

open access: yesEuropean Radiology Experimental, 2023
Background To determine whether denoised areal bone mineral density (BMD) measurements from scout scans in spectral detector computed tomography (CT) correlate with volumetric trabecular BMD for opportunistic osteoporosis screening.

A systematic review on the correlation between skeletal and jawbone mineral density in osteoporotic subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objectives: The aim of this systematic review was to assess whether the systemic skeletal reduction of bone mineral density (BMD) that characterizes osteoporotic subjects is also associated with a reduction of BMD in the jawbones.

Reproducibility of bone mineral density measurement in daily practice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
BACKGROUND: Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements are frequently performed repeatedly for each patient. Subsequent BMD measurements allow reproducibility to be assessed.

Different behaviour of the N-terminal and C-terminal fragment of proatrial natriuretic factor in plasma of healthy subjects as well as of patients with cirrhosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
N-terminal (atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) 1-98) and C-terminal (ANF 99-126) fragments of proatrial natriuretic factor (NTA and CTA, respectively) were determined in plasma of healthy subjects adopting different postures and in patients with cirrhosis ...

Relationship between chronic kidney disease and sarcopenia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Few studies have investigated the relationship between sarcopenia and mild to moderate renal decline. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and sarcopenia.

Bone mineral density assessed by phalangeal radiographic absorptiometry before and during long-term growth hormone treatment in girls with Turner's syndrome participating in a randomized dose-response study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
To assess bone mineral density (BMD) in girls with Turner's syndrome before and during long-term treatment with GH, longitudinal measurements using phalangeal radiographic absorptiometry were performed in 68 girls with Turner's syndrome.
