AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.The prevalence of sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity is large among community‐dwelling postmenopausal women, and lower body mass index is a significant predictor of both. The finding that low body mass index predicts both sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity, highlights the limitation of body mass index as a measure of adiposity in the assessment of ...

ANALYSIS OF DUAL-ENERGY X-RAY ABSORPTIOMETRY IMAGES USING COMPUTER VISION METHODS [PDF]
Trakia Journal of Sciences, 2020 PURPOSE: Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the “golden standard” for diagnosing osteoporosis. Its analyzing algorithm (software) makes it possible to distinguish the bone from the soft tissue.

Spinal Involvement in Charge Syndrome: Implications for Management
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT CHARGE syndrome (OMIM #214800) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in the CHD7 gene in most cases. Although originally defined by the CHARGE acronym (coloboma, heart defects, choanal atresia, growth restriction, genital hypoplasia, and ear anomalies), the recognized phenotype has expanded considerably to include highly ...

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry body composition model: review of physical concepts.
, 1996 Although dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is widely used in clinical research as a means of quantifying body composition, there remains at present little published information that reviews the method's underlying physical ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...

Seeing Through the Density: A Case of Misleading BMD Results on bone densitometry
Journal of the Pakistan Medical AssociationBone mineral densitometry (BMD) using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is widely recognized as the standard method for evaluating bone density. DXA produces attenuation maps that aid in measuring BMD. Non-relevant findings are commonly observed in
