Relation Between Smoking and Bone Mineral Density
Studies examining the relation between the nicotine intake through cigarette smoking and Bone Mineral Density (BMD) are limited and contradictory. The aim of this study was to investigate the relation between nicotine intake through smoking and BMD ...

Assessment of sarcopenia in young patients with inflammatory arthritis: a cross-sectional study
Sarcopenia 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.

Precision of dual-photon absorptiometry
Calcified Tissue International, 1988Precision of dual-photon absorptiometry (DPA) measurements was determined in a lumbar spine phantom and in humans. Approximately half of the measurements were made before and half after a 153gadolinium source change. The phantom was measured with different amounts of acrylic, which simulates human soft tissue, in order to evaluate the influence of body

Photon absorptiometry of hydrocarbons
International Journal of Radiation Applications and Instrumentation. Part A. Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 1986Abstract Measured and parametrised values of the attenuation coefficients of several hydrocarbons having a hydrogen-to-carbon weight ratio in the range from 0.05 to 0.16 and for photon energies 33, 75, 145, 279 and 662 keV are presented. The values are compared and possible trends and applications discussed.

Photon absorptiometry of bone and bone standards
The International Journal of Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 1985Abstract Measured and parametrised values of the attenuation coefficients of bone and several bone standards are presented for the photon energies 33, 75, 145, 279 and 662 keV. The values are compared, inadequacies are highlighted and possible new formulations are discussed.

OSTEOPOROSIS IN HYPERTHYROIDISM ESTIMATED BY PHOTON ABSORPTIOMETRY
Acta Endocrinologica, 1979ABSTRACT The degree of osteoporosis in hyperthyroidism before and during treatment with carbimazole was studied by photon absorption technique of the right forearm and calcaneus. In addition serum total calcium, serum ionized calcium, serum phosphorus and serum alkaline phosphatase were determined.

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry versus single photon absorptiometry of the radius [PDF]
Radial diaphyseal bone mineral density (BMD) was measured at the standard one-third site by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and by 125I single photon absorptiometry (SPA) in 70 consecutive subjects, aged 12-86 years, with metabolic disorders of the skeleton. Each patient was measured once by the DEXA (Hologic QDR-1000) instrument and four times
