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
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 (

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

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

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.
