Association between Bone Quality and Physical Activity in Community-Dwelling Older Adults [PDF]

Geriatrics
Bone quality is an essential factor determining bone strength. However, the relationship between physical activity (PA) and bone quality remains unclear.

Ultra-processed food targets bone quality via endochondral ossification

Bone Research, 2021
Ultra-processed foods have known negative implications for health; however, their effect on skeletal development has never been explored. Here, we show that young rats fed ultra-processed food rich in fat and sugar suffer from growth retardation due to ...

Diagnosis of sarcopenia by evaluating skeletal muscle mass by adjusted bioimpedance analysis validated with dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2021
Background This study aimed to adjust and cross‐validate skeletal muscle mass measurements between bioimpedance analysis (BIA) and dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) for the screening of sarcopenia in the community and to estimate the prevalence of ...

Egg shell quality and bone status as affected by environmental temperature, Ca and non-phytate P intake and in vitro limestone solubility in Single-Comb White Leghorn hens [PDF]

International Journal of Poultry Science (2020) 19: 219-231, 2022
Environmental temperature (ET) often changes the nutrient intake/output for layers. Changing feed formulations based on ET may need to be utilized to obtain optimum performance, shell quality and bone status. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of temperature, Ca intake, non-phytate P (NPP) intake and in vitro limestone solubility (LS ...

A multidisciplinary care pathway improves quality of life and reduces pain in patients with fibrous dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome: a multicenter prospective observational study

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2022
Background Fibrous dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome (FD/MAS) may cause pain, impaired ambulation and decreased quality of life (QoL). International guidelines advocate management of FD/MAS in a tertiary multidisciplinary care pathway, but no ...

Bone fragility in patients affected by congenital diseases non skeletal in origin

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
Background Bone tissue represents a large systemic compartment of the human body, with an active metabolism, that controls mineral deposition and removal, and where several factors may play a role.

Cortical bone thickness of the distal radius predicts the local bone mineral density

Bone & Joint Research, 2021
Aims: The distal radius is a major site of osteoporotic bone loss resulting in a high risk of fragility fracture. This study evaluated the capability of a cortical index (CI) at the distal radius to predict the local bone mineral density (BMD).

MK-7 and Its Effects on Bone Quality and Strength

Nutrients, 2020
Vitamin K acts as a cofactor and is required for post-translational γ-carboxylation of vitamin K-dependent proteins (VKDP). The current recommended daily intake (RDI) of vitamin K in most countries has been established based on normal coagulation ...
