SPECIFIC SITES OF BONE EXPANSION DEPEND ON THE LEVEL OF VOLLEYBALL PRACTICE IN PREPUBESCENT BOYS

Biology of Sport, 2013
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 18 months of high and low levels of volleyball practice on bone acquisition. 130 prepubescent boys (mean age 11.4 ± 0.7) were divided into a high-level training group (HLG), low-level training ...

Downturn in Childhood Bone Mass: A Cross‐Sectional Study Over Four Decades

JBMR Plus, 2022
Screen time and physical inactivity have increased among children. As physical activity is a determinant of bone mass, there is a concern that children today have lower bone mass than earlier.

The contemporary management of prostate cancer

CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, Volume 75, Issue 6, Page 552-586, November/December 2025.
Abstract Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in two thirds of the world, with an expected doubling in both incidence and mortality in the next two decades. No strong environmental associations exist for the development of prostate cancer; therefore, lifestyle measures are unlikely to mitigate this increasing burden.

Artificial intelligence in the diagnosis of gastro‐entero‐pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms: Potential benefits and current limitations

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 37, Issue 11, November 2025.
Gastro‐entero‐pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) exhibit substantial clinical heterogeneity and necessitate a multidisciplinary, personalized approach. Artificial intelligence (AI), through advanced imaging analysis and predictive modeling, offers new opportunities to support diagnosis and guide management.

Determinants of bone damage: An ex-vivo study on porcine vertebrae. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Bone's resistance to fracture depends on several factors, such as bone mass, microarchitecture, and tissue material properties. The clinical assessment of bone strength is generally performed by Dual-X Ray Photon Absorptiometry (DXA), measuring bone ...

Triple‐energy photon‐counting x‐ray imaging for bone‐strontium estimation: A simulation study

Medical Physics, Volume 52, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Background Strontium quantification in bone is clinically relevant but typically requires specialized stand‐alone systems. Photon‐counting detectors offer energy‐resolved imaging that may enable low‐dose estimation of both strontium concentration and bone mineral density in a single acquisition.

ODIASP: An Open‐Source Software for Automated SMI Determination—Application to an Inpatient Population

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Background The diagnosis of malnutrition has evolved with the GLIM recommendations, which advocate for integrating phenotypic criteria, including muscle mass measurement. The GLIM framework specifically suggests using skeletal muscle index (SMI) assessed via CT scan at the third lumbar level (L3) as a first‐line approach.

Reference Data and Predictors of HR‐pQCT‐Derived Muscle Density and Its Prediction of Physical Performance

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Background There is increasing awareness of a role for muscle composition in sarcopenia and cachexia. Computed tomography (CT)–based measures of muscle density (MusD) are commonly used to indicate composition, with a decrease in MusD reflecting an increase in muscle fat infiltration. The current study explored predictors of MusD acquired using

Improving decomposition image quality in dual‐energy chest radiography using two‐dimensional crisscrossed anti‐scatter grid

Medical Physics, Volume 52, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Background Chest radiography is a widely used medical imaging modality for diagnosing chest‐related diseases. However, anatomical structure overlap hinders accurate lesion detection. While the dual‐energy x‐ray imaging technique addresses this issue by separating soft‐tissue and bone images from an original chest radiograph, scattered ...
