A retrospective analysis of longitudinal changes in bone mineral content in cystic fibrosis [PDF]

, 2017
Background: We aimed to describe the longitudinal changes in bone mineral content and influencing factors, in children with cystic fibrosis (CF). Methods: One hundred children (50 females) had dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) performed.

Thyroid hormone status within the physiological range affects bone mass and density in healthy men at the age of peak bone mass [PDF]

, 2011
Context: The hormonal factors involved in the regulation of peak bone mass (PBM) in men have not been fully investigated. Apart from gonadal steroids and somatotropic hormones, thyroid hormones are known to affect bone maturation and homeostasis and are ...

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"

Regional variation in the microhardness and mineral content of porcine long bones [PDF]

, 2007
Pig carcasses are frequently used as models for the human cadaver in the study of trauma and wound patterns. Limited availability and ethical concerns over the use of human tissue has meant that porcine bone is often used as a substitute for human bone ...
