Bone mineral content among Inuit – a systematic review of data [PDF]

International Journal of Circumpolar Health
Inuit are a distinct ethnic group living in an environment likely to influence calcium metabolism and skeletal health. Bone mineral content (BMC) is a marker of skeletal health and fracture risk.

Influence of weight status on bone mineral content measured by DXA in children [PDF]

BMC Pediatrics, 2021
Introduction Childhood obesity is a public health problem with repercussions in later life. As tissue formation peaks in childhood we determined how weight status influences bone mineral content.

Chloroform associated with bone mineral density and bone mineral content in adults: A population-based cross-sectional research. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
BackgroundBone mineral density is an important indicator of osteoporosis, and its variation with volatile organic compounds exposure has rarely been studied. However, the relationship between chloroform (an essential volatile organic compounds component)

The Effect of Conjugated Linoleic Acid Supplementation on Densitometric Parameters in Overweight and Obese Women—A Randomised Controlled Trial

Medicina, 2023
Background and Objectives: Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) can improve bone health in animals, yet the effects on humans have not been consistent. Therefore, this parallel randomised controlled trial aimed to assess the effect of CLA supplementation on ...

Time Trends in Trajectories of Forearm Mineral Content and Bone Size during Childhood—Results from Cross‐Sectional Measurements with the Same Apparatus Four Decades Apart

JBMR Plus, 2023
Evidence suggests that single photon absorptiometry (SPA)‐measured forearm bone mineral density (BMD) is lower in contemporary children in Malmö than it was four decades ago, but the fracture incidence in the at‐risk population (all Malmö children) has ...

Effect of 2–6 weeks of systemic steroids on bone mineral density in children [PDF]

Clinical and Experimental Pediatrics, 2022
Background The use of systemic steroids for 6+ weeks in children is associated with decreased bone mineral content (BMC) and density (BMD). However, the effects of a shorter duration of use on BMD are unknown.
