Body Composition in Karate: A Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Karate is a widely practiced combat sport. Karatekas’ body composition has typically been obtained in small groups using skinfolds or bioelectric impedance. In this work, we assessed three-compartment body composition using the accurate dual-energy X-ray

Indirect neutron absorptiometry [PDF]

open access: yesTalanta, 1960
Abstract A preliminary account is given of the use of the neutron absorption of suitable elements (such as gadolinium) for the determination of non-absorbing elements (such as fluorine) by measuring the absorption of a dissolved precipitate (in the case quoted, gadolinium fluoride). This indirect determination by neutron absorption gives reproducible

Use of Dual X‐ray Absorptiometry in men with advanced cirrhosis to predict sarcopenia‐associated mortality risk

open access: yesLiver international (Print), 2019
Reduced muscle area on CT scan is an independent predictor of mortality in cirrhosis. We examine for the first time the relationship between dual energy x‐ray absorptiometry (DEXA) lean mass parameters on outcomes in cirrhotic men awaiting liver ...

Complex regional pain syndrome in a competitive athlete and regional osteoporosis assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry: a case report. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is rarely utilized in the clinical care of patients with complex regional pain syndrome, but may be useful for the non-invasive determination of regional bone fragility and fracture risk, as well as muscular atrophy and ...

Evaluation of Vibration Analysis to Assess Bone Mineral Density in Children [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The effectiveness of vibration analysis to assess bone mineral density (BMD) in children with suspected reduction in bone density was studied. A system was designed that measured the ulna's vibration responses in vivo.

Comparison between the gold standard DXA with calcaneal quantitative ultrasound based-strategy (QUS) to detect osteoporosis in an HIV infected cohort

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2017
Introduction: Osteoporosis represents one of the most frequent comorbidity among HIV patients. The current standard method for osteoporosis diagnosis is dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.

Pediatric dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry: interpretation and clinical and research application [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Pediatrics, 2010
Peak bone mass is established predominately during childhood and adolescence. It is an important determinant of future resistance to osteoporosis and fractures to gain bone mass during growth. The issue of low bone density in children and adolescents has
