Perspective on gravitational self-force analyses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A point particle of mass $\mu$ moving on a geodesic creates a perturbation $h_{ab}$, of the spacetime metric $g_{ab}$, that diverges at the particle. Simple expressions are given for the singular $\mu/r$ part of $h_{ab}$ and its distortion caused by the ...

Hip Structural Analysis and Bone Strain Index in Clinical Practice: Their Utility Beyond BMD

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism
Previous studies have demonstrated that in certain medical conditions, fragility fractures tend to occur even at bone mineral density (BMD) levels that are in the nonosteoporotic range.

Spins and charges in Grassmann space and Kahler spinors in space of differential forms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
One of us got spins and charges of not only scalars and vectors but also of spinors out of fields, which are antisymmetric tensor fields. Kahler got spins of spinors out of differential forms, which again are antisymmetric tensor fields. Using our simple

Abstract Wiener measure using abelian Yang-Mills action on $\mathbb{R}^4$

open access: yes, 2023
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be the Lie algebra of a compact Lie group. For a $\mathfrak{g}$-valued 1-form $A$, consider the Yang-Mills action \begin{equation} S_{{\rm YM}}(A) = \int_{\mathbb{R}^4} \left|dA + A \wedge A \right|^2 \nonumber \end{equation} using the

Thyroid hormone status within the physiological range affects bone mass and density in healthy men at the age of peak bone mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Context: The hormonal factors involved in the regulation of peak bone mass (PBM) in men have not been fully investigated. Apart from gonadal steroids and somatotropic hormones, thyroid hormones are known to affect bone maturation and homeostasis and are ...

Reliability and Precision of the Nana Protocol to Assess Body Composition Using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Nana positioning protocol is widely used to position participants to minimize technical error when undertaking body composition scanning and analysis with a Dual energy X-Ray absorptiometry (DXA) machine.

Bone losses in obese, ovariectomized rats appear to be independent from sclerostin-induced inhibition of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway

open access: yesAnnals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2020
Introduction Overweight and obesity, as well as a gonadal function, are pivotal factors influencing bone tissue metabolism. Material and methods The aim of the study was to determine the effect of dietary induced obesity (DIO) on bone tissue metabolism ...

Detrended Cross-Correlation Analysis: A New Method for Analyzing Two Non-stationary Time Series

open access: yes, 2007
Here we propose a method, based on detrended covariance which we call detrended cross-correlation analysis (DXA), to investigate power-law cross-correlations between different simultaneously-recorded time series in the presence of non-stationarity.

CT- and MRI-Based Assessment of Body Composition and Pancreatic Fibrosis Reveals High Incidence of Clinically Significant Metabolic Changes That Affect the Quality of Life and Treatment Outcomes of Patients with Chronic Pancreatitis and Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesMedicina, 2019
Background and Objectives: Both chronic pancreatitis (CP) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) may lead to cachexia, sarcopenia, and osteoporosis due to different mechanisms.
