Bone mineral content in epileptics

Calcified Tissue International, 1979
The bone mineral content in the forearms was measured in 71 epileptics, admitted to an institution for epileptics. The mineral content was decreased in epileptics as compared with age-matched normal controls. The decrease was in the order of 10--15% except in the distal end of the forearm in women.

Bone Mineral Content in Myelomatosis

Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1982
ABSTRACT. Bone mineral content (BMC) was determined by photon absorptiometry on both forearms in 28 patients with myelomatosis. Nineteen patients had received intermittent treatment with cytostatic agents and prednisone. No significant reduction of BMC was found between the patients with myelomatosis and an age‐ and sex‐matched normal population ...

Bone Mineral Content in Smokers

Southern Medical Journal, 1988
We 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: Data analysis

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1988
We 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 Density

Current Protocols in Mouse Biology, 2012
AbstractThe 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 ...

Age, steroids and bone mineral content

Maturitas, 1990
The 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.

Lactose Malabsorption and Bone Mineral Content

Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1977
ABSTRACT Bone mineral has been measured by the Am‐241 gamma ray attenuation method in 12 men and 22 women with lactose malabsorption and in 17 men and 17 women with normal lactose absorption, and compared with previously established normal values.

Measuring Bone Mineral Content

Orthopaedic Nursing, 1991
Orthopaedic 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.

Juvenile periodontitis: Skeletal bone mineral content

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 1977
Abstract No analysis of the skeletal bone mineral content in patients with juvenile periodontitis seems to be available. The purpose of the present analysis, therefore, was to determine, on the basis of estimation of the skeletal bone mineral content (BMC), if an osteopenia is present in patients with juvenile periodontitis.
