Bone Structure and Turnover in Postmenopausal Women With Long‐Standing Type 1 Diabetes
JBMR Plus, 2023 Compromised bone structural and mechanical properties are implicated in the increased fracture risk in type 1 diabetes (T1D). We investigated bone structure and turnover by histomorphometry in postmenopausal women with T1D and controls without diabetes ...

Calcium Intake in Bone Health: A Focus on Calcium-Rich Mineral Waters
Nutrients, 2018 Calcium is an essential element that plays numerous biological functions in the human body, of which one of the most important is skeleton mineralization. Bone is a mineralized connective tissue in which calcium represents the major component, conferring

Does crystallinity of extracted bone mineral increase over storage time? [PDF]
Materials Research, 2013 It was recently shown that the crystallinity of extracted bone mineral samples from the fin bones of zebrafish could increase over storage time. This would have implications in many studies in which the samples need to be stored until analysis.

Adjusting bone mass for differences in projected bone area and other confounding variables: an allometric perspective. [PDF]
, 2002 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"
