Bone mineral density and nourishment [PDF]
Some diet pattern is connected with higher risk of obesity and deficit of different nutrients. Both can contribute to complications of chronic disease like osteoporosis. The primary objective of this study was to analyze the correlation between bone mineral density and body mass, i.e. nutrients intake.

Maternity and bone mineral density [PDF]
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.

Microstructural, Densitometric and Metabolic Variations in Bones from Rats with Normal or Altered Skeletal States [PDF]
Background: High resolution μCT, and combined μPET/CT have emerged as non-invasive techniques to enhance or even replace dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) as the current preferred approach for fragility fracture risk assessment.

Bone Mineral Density (BMD) [PDF]
Bone, the main constituent of the skeletal system is a hard tissue that results from the impregnation of a soft organic matrix (35%) (collagen fibers and non-collagenous proteins) by calcium and phosphorous, mainly in form of hydroxyapatite, (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2), as well as carbonate, citrate, magnesium, fluoride, and strontium (65%) [1].

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