Bone microarchitecture and bone turnover in hepatic cirrhosis [PDF]
Liver cirrhosis leads to bone loss. To date, information on bone quality (three-dimensional microarchitecture) and, thus, bone strength is scarce. We observed decreased bone quality at both assessed sites, independent of disease severity. Therefore, all patients should undergo early-stage screening for osteoporosis.Recent studies found low bone mineral

Bone microarchitecture in patients with autoimmune hepatitis [PDF]
ABSTRACT In patients with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), osteoporosis represents a common extrahepatic complication, which we recently showed by an assessment of areal bone mineral density (aBMD) via dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA).

MRI assessment of bone structure and microarchitecture [PDF]
Osteoporosis is a disease of weak bone and increased fracture risk caused by low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue. The standard‐of‐care test used to diagnose osteoporosis, dual‐energy x‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) estimation of areal bone mineral density (BMD), has limitations as a tool to identify patients at risk for ...

Microarchitecture, the key to bone quality [PDF]
Bone has the ability to adapt its shape and size in response to mechanical loads via a process known as modelling in which bones are shaped or reshaped by the independent action of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Remodelling is a process that maintains mechanical integrity of the skeleton, allowing it to selectively repair and replace damaged bone. During

Prednisolone impairs trabecular bone score changes in adolescents with 21-hydroxylase deficiency [PDF]
Background Individuals with 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) require lifelong glucocorticoid (GC) therapy, which increases their risk of fragility fractures.

Monitoring trabecular bone microdamage using a dynamic acousto-elastic testing method [PDF]
Dynamic acousto-elastic testing (DAET) is based on the coupling of a lowfrequency (LF) acoustic wave and high-frequency ultrasound (US) pulses (probing wave). It was developed to measure US viscoelastic and dissipative non-linearity in trabecular bone.

Microarchitectural aspects of increased bone fragility in individuals with type 2 diabetes [PDF]
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is a common non-communicable disease that represents one of the leading public health problems worldwide. An increased risk of fractures, particularly fractures of the femoral neck, has been recognized as one of the complications ...

Mechanical behavior of osteoporotic bone at sub-lamellar length scales [PDF]
Osteoporosis is a disease known to promote bone fragility but the effect on the mechanical properties of bone material, which is independent of geometric effects, is particularly unclear.

Microarchitecture of historic bone samples with tuberculosis
SummaryTuberculosis is among the leading causes of death from infectious diseases and affects many organ systems, including the skeleton. Skeletal tuberculosis is an extrapulmonary stage of tuberculosis, which occurs after the early and post-primary pulmonary stages of the disease.
