Osteoporosis International, 1994
Peak bone mass, which can be defined as the amount of bony tissue present at the end of the skeletal maturation, is an important determinant of osteoporotic fracture risk. Measurement of bone mass development. The bone mass of a given part of the skeleton is directly dependent upon both its volume or size and the density of the mineralized tissue ...

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2010
Although it has been repeatedly suggested that low bone mineral density (BMD) is disproportionately prevalent among patients with depressive disorders, so far depression has not been officially acknowledged as a risk factor for osteoporosis. In a recent meta‐analysis comparing depressed with nondepressed individuals we report that BMD is lower in ...

Bone, 1992
The clinical attraction of being able to measure bone density in a precise and accurate manner is clear. With this information, clinicians can identify osteopenic postmenopausal women, assess the effects of disease on the skeleton, and examine the effect of therapy.

Baillière's Clinical Rheumatology, 1993
Bone can be divided into two kinds of tissue, cortical and trabecular bone. The skeleton comprises approximately 80% cortical bone, mainly in peripheral bones, and 20% trabecular bone, mainly in the axial skeleton. Bone density increases with skeletal growth to a peak in late adolescence or early adulthood.

Measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) of the central skeleton by dual X-ray absorptiometry allowed tremendous developments in the field of osteoporosis. The World Health Organization defined osteoporosis as a bone density below that of the mean young reference population at the spine, total hip or femoral neck by at least 2.5 standard deviations ...

Current Opinion in Endocrinology, Diabetes & Obesity, 2023
Purpose of review Bone accrual during childhood and adolescence is critical for the attainment of peak bone mass and is a major contributing factor towards osteoporosis in later life. Bone mass accrual is influenced by nonmodifiable factors, such as genetics, sex, race, ethnicity, and puberty, as well as modifiable factors ...

The clinical application of bone densitometry is one of the advances in the field of osteoporosis that has led to the increased patient awareness of this increasingly prevalent disease. Bone densitometry has made it possible for clinicians to diagnose osteoporosis before the first fracture has occurred; predict risk for fracture in postmenopausal women,

Bone Mass, Bone Metabolism, Gonadal Status and Body Mass Index
Osteoporosis International, 2002Weight and gonadal status are the main determinants of bone mass in women. Because of this it is important to study which influences it more. The effect of weight (expressed as body mass index, BMI) and gonadal status of women on total-body bone mineral content (TBBMC) and regional bone mineral content (BMC) was investigated.
