The influence of adult urine lead exposure on bone mineral densit: NHANES 2015-2018

Frontiers in Endocrinology
IntroductionPrevious studies have indicated that exposure to heavy metals related to bone health is primarily limited to some common harmful metals, and the impact of lead has not been fully understood. This study aims to explore the relationship between

The Floor‐Ceiling‐Chip, or 2 × 2D = Pseudo‐3D—Approaching 3D Cell Morphology and Organization between Two Opposing 2D Substrates with Cell‐Adhesive Protein Micropatterns

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Here, we present a novel 3D cell patterning and culture platform. The “Floor‐Ceiling‐Chip” (FC‐Chip) consists of two opposing track‐etched membranes, creating a pseudo‐3D microenvironment for the cells in between. By providing the membranes with micropatterned cell‐adhesive islands of varying geometries and sizes, the FC‐Chip enables control over cell ...

Bone Mineral Density (BMD) [PDF]

Current Trends in Biomedical Engineering & Biosciences, 2017
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].

Alimentacao e densidade mineral ossea em mulheres pre-monopausicas.

Acta Médica Portuguesa, 1995
Environmental factors have an important role in osteoporosis. Diet and, in particular, nutrients like calcium, vitamin D or phosphorus were extensively studied as determinants of bone mineral density, but the results remain conflicting and there is no ...

Role of peripheral quantitative computed tomography in identifying disuse osteoporosis in paraplegia [PDF]

, 2009
Objective: Disuse osteoporosis is a major long-term health consequence of spinal cord injury (SCI) that still needs to be addressed. Its management in SCI should begin with accurate diagnosis, followed by targeted treatments in the most vulnerable ...
