Maternity and bone mineral density [PDF]

Acta Orthopaedica, 2005
During pregnancy and lactation, changes occur in a variety of factors which have great potential to influence bone mineral density (BMD). Smoking habits, the level of alcohol consumption, the level of physical activity, body weight, soft tissue composition and hormone levels are all factors that change during the course of these conditions.

Anthropometric models of bone mineral content and areal bone mineral density based on the bone mineral density in childhood study [PDF]

Osteoporosis International, 2014
New models describing anthropometrically adjusted normal values of bone mineral density and content in children have been created for the various measurement sites. The inclusion of multiple explanatory variables in the models provides the opportunity to calculate Z-scores that are adjusted with respect to the relevant anthropometric parameters ...

HIV and bone mineral density [PDF]

GERMS, 2015
Bone mineral density (BMD) loss is a phenomenon considered to be physiologic in elderly adults. However, certain categories of patients may be at higher (e.g., post-menopausal women) or earlier (e.g., patients with chronic viral infections such as HBV or HIV) risk of BMD loss.

Bone Mineral Density

The Angle orthodontist, 2012
To verify whether bone mineral density (BMD) of cortical bone, trabecular bone, and total bone influence the primary stability of orthodontic miniscrews and to verify whether there is a correlation between the measurement of BMD by cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and central dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA).Twenty bovine bone sections were ...

Bone mineral density and pandemic

Wiadomości Lekarskie
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted physical health, including bone mineral density (BMD). This review aims to explore the effects of various pandemic-related factors such as reduced physical activity, stress, depression, dietary changes, and SARS-CoV-2 infection on BMD.

Bone Mineral Density and Factors influencing Bone Mineral Density in College Women

Korean Journal of Women Health Nursing, 2012
The purpose of this study was to identify the levels of bone mineral density (BMD) and to explain the factors influencing BMD among female college students in Korea.A cross-sectional study was conducted with 144 college women. Lifestyle factors were determined by self-report questionnaire.

Bone Mineral Density in the Scaphoid

Plastic Surgery
Introduction : The scaphoid bone is essential for wrist stability and movement. While fractures commonly occur at the scaphoid's waist, those at the proximal pole, though rarer, tend to result in nonunion, potentially linked to variations in bone mineral density (BMD).

Bone mineral density scans

BMJ, 2002
…; In bone mineral density (BMD) scanning, the energy of x ray beams that are passed through bones is absorbed, and what is not absorbed is detected on the other side of the body. The more dense the bones (from greater mineral content), the more energy is absorbed, and the less energy detected. …; The radiation energy per pixel (“picture element”) is

Bone Mineral Density and Stroke Risk [PDF]

Stroke, 2001
To the Editor: In their recent article, Jorgensen et al1 examined the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and stroke. They reported that female, but not male, stroke patients had lower BMD than population controls. Like the few other previous reports, it was based on fewer than 85 total cases.
