Bone Mineral Content in Smokers
Southern Medical Journal, 1988We did a cross-sectional evaluation of the effect of heavy cigarette smoking on bone mass using single photon absorptiometry (SPA) of the radius in 35 smokers (24 women, 11 men) and 35 nonsmokers (24 women, 11 men). Individuals from the two groups were carefully matched for sex, age, weight, height, calcium intake, and, for women, menopausal history ...

Bone Mineral Content and Density
Current Protocols in Mouse Biology, 2012AbstractThe availability of high‐throughput biochemical and imaging techniques that can be used on live mice has increased the possibility of undertaking longitudinal studies to characterize skeletal changes such as bone mineral content and density. Further characterization of bone morphology, bone quality, and bone strength can also be achieved by ...

BONE MINERAL CONTENT IN CHILDREN WITH FRACTURES
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1983Bone mineral content was measured in the forearms of 90 children who had recent fractures. The data were compared with those of age-matched healthy children. Bone mineral content was significantly reduced in children in whom fractures were caused by low-energy trauma.

Age, steroids and bone mineral content
Maturitas, 1990The possible existence of correlations between bone mineral content (BMC), age and serum levels of steroid hormones was investigated. It was found that dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEA-S), oestradiol (E2) and delta-4-androstenedione (A) were correlated with BMC, whereas oestrone (E1) and testosterone (T) were not.

Bone mineral content: Data analysis
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1988We reviewed the literature related to intrauterine bone mineral content (BMC) curves and the expression of BMC measurements in infants. From this review, it appears that the curves developed by Greer and by Minton for the radius are extremely similar and that both should be used as the reference curve.

Bone Mineral Content and Physical Activity
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 1987The purpose of this study was to estimate the effects of intense and regular physical activity on locomotor system modifications. Tennis, with its unilateral solicitations, allows a more precise examination of specific localized development. Ten professional tennis players were compared with sedentary age-matched students.

Mineral content of skeletal bones in otosclerosis
Clinical Otolaryngology, 1979In 63 patients with otosclerosis confirmed by operation, the bone mineral content was determined by photon absorptiometry. The bone mineral content and bone mineral concentration were found to be normal, which lends support to the assumption that otosclerosis is a localized disease and not a manifestation of a generalized disorder of the skeletal ...

Bone Mineral Content in Infants
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1987Sir.—I wish to comment on the article describing photon absorptiometric measurements of the humerus in term and preterm infants.1Vyhmeister and coworkers measured the bone mineral content (BMC) of this bone in infants who ranged in weight from 713 to 3779 g and reported, as would be expected, an increase in BMC with increasing birth weight.

Thiazide Effect on the Mineral Content of Bone
New England Journal of Medicine, 1983The thiazide diuretics are known to cause calcium retention. In order to study the effect of thiazides on bone mineralization, we have measured the mineral content of bone at five sites (the distal radius, the distal ulna, the proximal radius, the proximal ulna, and the os calcis) in 1368 men with a mean age of 68 years, including 323 who were taking ...

Measuring Bone Mineral Content
Orthopaedic Nursing, 1991Orthopaedic nurses encounter many patients with fractures related to osteoporosis. This article discusses the most available methods of measuring bone mineral content (BMC) to diagnose osteoporosis. The methods include single photon absorptiometry, dual photon absorptiometry, and dual photon absorptiometry using x-rays and computerized tomography.
