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

open access: yesOsteoporosis 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 ...

Bone geometry and volumetric bone mineral density in girls with Turner syndrome of different pubertal stages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Objective An increased rate of fractures has been reported in patients with Turner syndrome (TS). We aimed to assess bone geometry and volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) at the radius in girls with TS and to evaluate the relationships between bone

Polymorphisms in genes involved in the NF-κB signalling pathway are associated with bone mineral density, geometry and turnover in men [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
<p><b>Introduction:</b> In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within two genes involved in the NF-kappa B cascade (GPR177 and MAP3K14) and bone mineral density (BMD ...

Causal association of epigenetic aging and osteoporosis: a bidirectional Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2023
Background The relationship between aging and osteoporosis is well established. However, the relationship between the body's physiological age, i.e. epigenetic age, and osteoporosis is not known.

Prediction of bone mineral density in CT using deep learning with explainability

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Bone mineral density (BMD) is a key feature in diagnosing bone diseases. Although computational tomography (CT) is a common imaging modality, it seldom provides bone mineral density information in a clinic owing to technical difficulties.

Effect of anastrozole on bone mineral density and lipid profiles when used to prevent breast cancer in high risk postmenopausal women [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
PhDThe role of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) in breast cancer has expanded since their introduction in the mid-1990s. They are superior to tamoxifen in the treatment of postmenopausal women with oestrogen dependant tumours in the metastatic, neoadjuvant ...

Bone Mineral Density Among Long-term Users of Hormonal Contraception (Contraception and Bone Mineral Density) [PDF]

open access: yesAl-Azhar International Medical Journal
Background: Hormonal contraceptives that involve steroids have a high success rate and are commonly used. The use of these contraceptives can have positive and negative effects on health, including bone health.

HIV and bone mineral density [PDF]

open access: yesGERMS, 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.

Time Trends in Trajectories of Forearm Mineral Content and Bone Size during Childhood—Results from Cross‐Sectional Measurements with the Same Apparatus Four Decades Apart

open access: yesJBMR Plus, 2023
Evidence suggests that single photon absorptiometry (SPA)‐measured forearm bone mineral density (BMD) is lower in contemporary children in Malmö than it was four decades ago, but the fracture incidence in the at‐risk population (all Malmö children) has ...
