Exercise and Bone Mineral Density
Sports Medicine, 1995A 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, 2000The 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, 2004Summaryobjective 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, 2012AbstractThe 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, 2005Estrogen 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.

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, 2006Authors 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, 2007Our 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 ...

Bone Mineral Density in Childhood Obesity
Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2000There are several metabolic and hormonal disturbances in childhood obesity. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between childhood obesity and bone mineral density (BMD). We studied BMD in 37 obese children and in 37 non-obese children. BMD was measured at L2-L4 level by using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry.

Bone Mineral Density in Adolescents
Pediatric Annals, 1995Bone densitometry is becoming more widely available and is no longer limited to studying the elderly. Rapid, safe, and accurate methods of measuring BMD now allow serial determination of this important factor in fracture risk and will undoubtedly become even more accessible in the future.
