Association Between Serum Ferritin Levels and Low Bone Mineral Density in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis Women

open access: yesActa Medica Iranica, 2020
As women go through menopause, serum estrogen decreases, and ferritin increases. Ferritin is an essential component of the body, but many studies have stated that ferritin, which exceeds the normal physiological range, may potentially cause health ...

Selective Determinants of Low Bone Mineral Mass in Adult Women with Anorexia Nervosa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2013
We investigated the relative effect of amenorrhea and insulin-like growth factor-I (sIGF-I) levels on cancellous and cortical bone density and size. We investigated 66 adult women with anorexia nervosa.

Temperature influence on DXA measurements: bone mineral density acquisition in frozen and thawed human femora

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2009
Background Determining bone mineral density (BMD) with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is an established and widely used method that is also applied prior to biomechanical testing. However, DXA is affected by a number of factors. In order to delay

Analysis of Age-Based Bone Mineral Density in the Korean Adult Population Using Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) provides a reliable and accurate measurement of bone density and bone mineral composition. This research examined the composition and bone density (bone mineral composition and bone mineral density; BMD) of the ...

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 ...
