Bone Quality—Beyond Bone Mineral Density

Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2016
Both bone mass and quality are responsible for bone strength. Whereas bone mass is measured with bone mineral density, quantification of bone quality is more complex and involves bone architecture, texture, and mechanical parameters. Over the last decade, significant progress has been made in developing technologies to measure bone quality.

Exercise and Bone Mineral Density

Sports Medicine, 1995
A decrease in physical activity may lead to an increased loss of bone and an increase in the incidence of osteoporotic fractures. Studies have demonstrated increases in bone formation in animals and increases in bone mineral density in humans. Studies of animals show that bone has enhanced physical and mechanical properties following periods of ...

Bone mineral density in osteoarthritis

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2000
The inverse relation between osteoporosis and osteoarthritis has long been considered in the literature. This review looks at current evidence to support this relation, concentrating on studies published since 1998. The review also summarizes previous large studies investigating this relation.

Bone mineral density in hyperthyroidism

Clinical Endocrinology, 2004
Summaryobjective  To investigate whether previous hyperthyroidism is a cause of permanent secondary osteoporosis.design and patients  In this cross‐sectional study, 164 women with untreated or previously treated overt and symptomatic hyperthyroidism were examined 0–31 years after the initial episode of hyperthyroidism and its treatment, and were ...

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 ...

Bone Mineral Density in Lymphangioleiomyomatosis

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2005
Estrogen deficiency and pulmonary diseases are associated with bone mineral density (BMD) loss. Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), a disorder affecting women that is characterized by cystic lung lesions, is frequently treated with antiestrogen therapy, i.e., progesterone and/or oophorectomy.

HIV and bone mineral density

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2010
This review details the clinical aspects and pathogenesis of low bone mineral density (BMD) in HIV, discusses broad management issues and outlines areas in which our understanding of this condition is incomplete.Low BMD is prevalent in HIV-infected patients, with traditional risk factors, HIV infection and exposure to antiretroviral therapy all ...

β-blockers Increase Bone Mineral Density

Clinical Orthopaedics & Related Research, 2006
Authors of animal studies suggest that beta-blockers stimulate bone formation and inhibit bone resorption. On the other hand, data in humans are limited and conflicting results exist in literature. We conducted a prospective case-control study in order to investigate the effects of beta-blockers on bone mineral density in the elderly population.

Bone Mineral Density in Angelman Syndrome

Pediatric Neurology, 2007
Our aim was to evaluate bone mineral densitometry in patients with Angelman syndrome with or without antiepileptic therapy. Eighteen patients (9 females, 9 males), aged 4.0-24.3 years (mean age, 10.1 years), and two control groups consisting of 18 epileptic and 24 healthy patients, underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at the lumbar spine (L(1)-L ...
