Using bone mineral apparent density for BMD adjustment in chronic diseases: Thalassemia an example [PDF]

Caspian Journal of Internal Medicine
Background: Low BMD is a common problem in major thalassaemia patient, but the use of DXA in chronic disease children with smaller bones, has some problems. Utilizing bone mineral apparent density (BMAD) helps in preventing this obstacle.

Maternal Factors Modifying the Link Between Genetic Risk for Autism and Developmental Milestones

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although common genetic liability—quantified through polygenic risk scores (PRS)—accounts for substantial variance in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) liability, how prenatal environmental exposures interact with genetic predisposition to shape developmental outcomes remains poorly understood. Using the data from Autism Genetic Resource Exchange

Association of functionally different RUNX2 P2 promoter alleles with BMD

, 2006
RUNX2 gene SNPs were genotyped in subjects from the upper and lower deciles of age- and weight-adjusted femoral neck BMD. Of 16 SNPs in RUNX2 and its two promoters (P1 and P2), only SNPs in the P2 promoter were significantly associated with BMD. These P2

Local variation in age‐related cortical expansion within and between cross‐sections of distal human long bones

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cortical bone expansion is an age‐related process where, through endosteal resorption and periosteal apposition, cross‐sectional diameter increases while cortical thickness decreases in long bone diaphyses. Local variation has been observed in this process between cross‐sectional locations, but few studies have examined directional variation ...

Bestimmung der Knochenmineraldichte des Handskelettes und der Körperzusammensetzung der oberen Extremitäten der dominanten im Vergleich zur nicht dominanten Seite bei Normalpersonen [PDF]

, 2003
Die Immobilisierung ist eine wichtige Ursache von Knochenverlusten. Viele Autoren haben über eine erhebliche Abnahme der Knochenmasse nach Frakturen der langen Röhrenknochen berichtet, die nicht nur die Frakturstelle, sondern auch deren Nachbarschaft ...
