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 ...

Adjusting bone mass for differences in projected bone area and other confounding variables: an allometric perspective. [PDF]

, 2002
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"

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 in Postmenopausal Women Heterozygous for the C282Y HFE Mutation

Journal of Osteoporosis, 2016
Mutations in the HFE gene may be associated with increased tissue iron stores reflected in an elevated serum ferritin. With homozygous mutation C282Y, the increase in serum ferritin may be associated with tissue damage in the liver, pancreas, and ...

Association of total testosterone status with bone mineral density in adults aged 40–60 years

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2021
Objective Evidence linking total testosterone and bone mineral density (BMD) in adults is very limited. According to our review of the literature, only a few reports have focused on the relationship between total testosterone and bone mineral density in ...

A Randomized, Double‐Blind Phase 2 Clinical Trial of Blosozumab, a Sclerostin Antibody, in Postmenopausal Women with Low Bone Mineral Density

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2015
Sclerostin, a SOST protein secreted by osteocytes, negatively regulates formation of mineralized bone matrix and bone mass. We report the results of a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled multicenter phase 2 clinical trial of blosozumab, a ...
