Bone Mineral Density at Diagnosis of Celiac Disease and after 1 Year of Gluten-Free Diet

The Scientific World Journal, 2014
Atypical or silent celiac disease may go undiagnosed for many years and can frequently lead to loss of bone mineral density, with evolution to osteopenia or osteoporosis. The prevalence of the latter conditions, in case of new diagnosis of celiac disease,

Resting energy expenditure measured by whole‐room and portable indirect calorimetry in adults with breast cancer: A comparison study

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Accurate measurement of resting energy expenditure is essential for informing nutrition support and optimizing outcomes. However, gold standard methods for measuring resting energy expenditure are often unfeasible in clinical settings, and previous portable devices have lacked accuracy.

Clinical spectrum of osteopetrosis with secondary osteomyelitis of the mandible: Report of two cases

Journal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology, 2018
Osteopetrosis is an inherited disorder of the bone caused by mutations in gene that encode for carbonic anhydrase. This results in defective osteoclast function leading to resorption defects and formation of bones that are extremely dense and prone to ...

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry of the forearm: Reproducibility and correlation with single-photon absorptiometry

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 1992
Abstract Although single-photon absorptiometry (SPA) has been the predominant tool used to assess bone mineral density (BMD) in the forearm, the development of dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) provides the benefits of greater source stability, reduced scanning time, and improved image resolution compared to SPA.

Isotretinoin and Adolescent Growth: A Systematic Review

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite widespread use as an effective systemic therapy for adolescent acne, the effects of isotretinoin on pediatric skeletal development remain a subject of debate in the medical literature. Evidence characterizing its potential influence on growth plate maturation and skeletal outcomes is limited.

Factors Contributing to Improved Bone Mineral Density in Patients With Transfusion‐Dependent Thalassemia

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advances in therapy have extended the life expectancy of patients with thalassemia to near that of the general population; complications such as endocrine disorders and osteoporosis remain prevalent. This study aimed to identify endocrine complications, factors associated with endocrine complications, and changes in bone mineral density (BMD ...
