Osteopenia in a Mouse Model of Spinal Cord Injury: Effects of Age, Sex and Motor Function
After spinal cord injury (SCI), 80% of individuals are diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis. The dramatic loss of bone after SCI increases the potential for fractures 100-fold, with post-fracture complications occurring in 54% of cases. With the age

Adjusting bone mass for differences in projected bone area and other confounding variables: an allometric perspective. [PDF]
The traditional method of assessing bone mineral density (BMD; given by bone mineral content [BMC] divided by projected bone area [Ap], BMD = BMC/Ap) has come under strong criticism by various authors. Their criticism being that the projected bone "area"

ABSTRACT Background The Standards for Psychosocial Care for Children with Cancer and Their Families (“Standards”) are evidence‐based guidelines for psychosocial care in pediatric oncology. Care related to the three “Asking and Monitoring” Standards—Assessment of Psychosocial Needs, Assessment of Financial Needs, and Monitoring Neurocognitive Problems ...

PPAR Gamma Activity and Control of Bone Mass in Skeletal Unloading
Bone loss occuring with unloading is associated with decreased osteoblastogenesis and increased bone marrow adipogenesis, resulting in bone loss and decreased bone formation.

Parkin Inhibits RANKL-Induced Osteoclastogenesis and Ovariectomy-Induced Bone Loss
Osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures comprise a substantial health and socioeconomic burden. The leading cause of osteoporosis is an imbalance in bone formation and bone resorption caused by hyperactive osteoclasts.

Effects of smoking on tibial and radial bone mass and strength may diminish with age [PDF]
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to assess the effect of cigarette smoking on indicators of bone strength across a wide age range, controlling for physical activity and neuromuscular performance. Methods:Weconducted a cross-sectional study with 41

Lipid Signalling in Human Immune Response and Bone Remodelling under Microgravity
Since the first Apollo mission in 1969, microgravity has been linked to many alterations of astronauts’ physiology, among which immunosuppression, altered inflammation and bone loss represent relevant examples.

ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...
