X-Linked Hypophosphatemic Rickets: Multisystemic Disorder in Children Requiring Multidisciplinary Management

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) is the commonest inherited form of rickets. It is caused by an impaired regulation of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) due to a PHEX gene mutation, which leads to reduced tubular reabsorption of phosphate and ...

Corneal Densitometry with Galilei Dual Scheimpflug Analyzer

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
This study aims to apply the densitometry distribution analysis (DDA) method to study corneal densitometry depending on age and corneal region from Galilei Dual Scheimpflug Analyzer tomography. A total of 83 healthy participants aged 39.02 ± 18.34 years (

Correlation of positron emission tomography ventilation-perfusion matching with CT densitometry in severe emphysema

open access: yesEJNMMI Research, 2020
Background Emphysema severity is frequently measured on CT via densitometry. Correlation with scintigraphic and spirometric functional measures of ventilation or perfusion varies widely, and no prior study has evaluated correlation between densitometry ...

Predictors of Bone Mineral Density Reduction in Patients with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Associated with Pathogenetic Therapy

open access: yesАрхивъ внутренней медицины, 2023
Hodgkin’s lymphoma is more common in the younger patient population. An increase in overall and recurrence-free survival increases the likelihood of developing post-cytostatic complications in the form of a decrease in bone mineral density and associated

Osteoporosis Self-Assessment Tool Performance in a Large Sample of Postmenopausal Women of Mendoza, Argentina

open access: yesJournal of Osteoporosis, 2013
The Osteoporosis Self-assessment Tool (OST) is a clinical instrument designed to select patients at risk of osteoporosis, who would benefit from a bone mineral density measurement. The OST only takes into account the age and weight of the subject. It was

Bone Mineral Density and Body Composition of Adult Premenopausal Women with Three Levels of Physical Activity

open access: yesJournal of Osteoporosis, 2013
Weight-bearing and resistance physical activities are recommended for osteoporosis prevention, but it is unclear whether an intensity level above current recommendations has a positive effect on adult premenopausal women.

Primary Outcomes of Accelerated Epithelium-Off Corneal Cross-Linking in Progressive Keratoconus in Children: A 1-Year Prospective Study

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2017
Purpose. To evaluate corneal transparency following accelerated collagen cross-linking (ACXL) in pediatric keratoconus. Design. A prospective interventional case series. Methods. This study included 47 eyes (25 patients), aged 9–14 years, with documented

Quantitative evaluation of corneal epithelial edema after cataract surgery using corneal densitometry: a prospective study

open access: yesBMC Ophthalmology, 2018
Purpose The optical density of the cornea can be evaluated quantitatively by “densitometry” using a rotating Scheimpflug camera. Densitometry allows evaluation of corneal opacity in the anterior segment of the eye by quantitative measurement of ...

Bone Densitometry in Children

open access: yesSeminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2014
Maximizing peak bone mass in childhood is relevant to optimizing bone health in later life, so the study of the skeleton in children in health and disease is important. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most widely used clinical tool for the assessment of bone status in children.

Comparative evaluation of densitometric parameters of cone-beam computed tomography and excisional biopsy in differential diagnosis of destructive forms of chronic periodontitis

open access: yesЭндодонтия Today, 2020
This study is devoted to non-invasive diagnosis of chronic destructive periodontitis with the help of conebeam computed tomography (CBCT). The clinical and laboratory stage of the study was carried out in 30 patients with a preliminary diagnosis of ...
