Relationship of Bone Turnover to Bone Density and Fractures [PDF]
Abstract To assess the influence of bone turnover on bone density and fracture risk, we measured serum levels of osteocalcin (OC), bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), and carboxy-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PICP), as well as 24-h urine levels of cross-linked N-telopeptides of type I collagen (NTx) and the free pyridinium ...

Effects of osteoporosis and drugs on bone biomechanics. [PDF]
PhD16 New Zealand White (NZW) rabbits were ovariectomised (OVX) and 20 left intact as age-matched controls. 4 controls were killed at time 0, then 4 from each group at 1,3,6 and 12 months post-OVX. Serum oestradiol and body weight were recorded.

Clinical factors associated with trabecular bone score.
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) is the reference standard for diagnosing osteoporosis but does not directly reflect deterioration in bone microarchitecture.

Bone Mineral Density Among Long-term Users of Hormonal Contraception (Contraception and Bone Mineral Density) [PDF]
Background: Hormonal contraceptives that involve steroids have a high success rate and are commonly used. The use of these contraceptives can have positive and negative effects on health, including bone health.

Effects of anti-resorptive agents on trabecular bone score (TBS) in older women.
We evaluated the longitudinal effects of anti-resorptive agents (534 treated women vs. 1,150 untreated) on lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS). TBS was responsive to treatment in women over age 50.

Polymorphisms in genes involved in the NF-κB signalling pathway are associated with bone mineral density, geometry and turnover in men [PDF]
<p><b>Introduction:</b> In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within two genes involved in the NF-kappa B cascade (GPR177 and MAP3K14) and bone mineral density (BMD ...
