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.

Lactose Malabsorption and Bone Mineral Content
Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1977ABSTRACT 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, 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.

Juvenile periodontitis: Skeletal bone mineral content
Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 1977Abstract 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.

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.

Bone Mineral Content and Fragility Fractures
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1977In 249 patients with fractures characteristic of bone fragility, i.e. femoral neck fracture, vertebral crush fracture, fracture of the upper end of the humerus, Colles' fracture, fracture of the lateral condyle of the tibia and various ankle fractures, and forearm bone mineral content was measured by gamma absorptiometry.

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.

Bone mineral density and bone mineral content among female elite athletes
Bone, 2019Exercise is a protective factor for the appearance of osteoporosis, but not all physical activities have the same effect on bones. Low-impact sports, like swimming, may a have a negative or no effect. The aim of the present study is to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD, g/cm2) and bone mineral content (BMC, kg) among female high performance athletes ...

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.

Scuba diving does not affect bone mineral density or bone mineral content
Joint Bone Spine, 2011Scuba diving is a very specialized, physically demanding activity. The bones of divers are subjected to stress from water pressure, from the forces generated when their muscles resist water pressure, and from weightlessness. Notably, few studies have addressed the effects of diving on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC), and the ...
