Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1995 Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is unquestionably the method of choice for the assessment of bone mass. Recent generations of DXA instruments also have the capability of assessing soft tissue mass, thereby providing a three-compartment model of body composition, i.e., bone mineral, fat, and bone-free lean masses.

Identifying coeliac disease in DXA referrals [PDF]
Osteoporosis International, 2014 Dear Editor, Hjelle and colleagues [1] draw attention to the association of coeliac disease [CD] with fracture and discuss whether patients presenting with idiopathic osteoporosis should have serological testing for CD. Apart from the complications affecting the bone, they also draw attention to the possibility of increased morbidity and mortality in ...

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.Maternal SD during pregnancy enhances the development of diet‐induced NASH in adult offspring of both sexes through an NR4A3‐dependent mechanism, characterised by heightened inflammation and increased apoptosis. Maternal melatonin supplementation effectively alleviates this increased susceptibility to NASH in offspring.

Laboratory Animal Research, 2019 We examined the precision, accuracy, and capability of detecting changes of Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) for the measurements of total-body weight (TBW), total-body fat weight (TBFW), and total-body lean weight (TBLW) in an 8-week follow-up ...

Fermi Coordinates and Penrose Limits
, 2006 We propose a formulation of the Penrose plane wave limit in terms of null Fermi coordinates. This provides a physically intuitive (Fermi coordinates are direct measures of geodesic distance in space-time) and manifestly covariant description of the ...

High protein consumption in trained women: bad to the bone?
Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2018 Background It has been posited that the consumption of extra protein (> 0.8 g/kg/d) may be deleterious to bone mineral content. However, there is no direct evidence to show that consuming a high-protein diet results in a demineralization of the skeleton.

Use of magnetic resonance imaging to predict the body composition of pigs in vivo
Animal, 2013 The objective of the study was to evaluate whether magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers the opportunity to reliably analyze body composition of pigs in vivo. Therefore, the relation between areas of loin eye muscle and its back fat based on MRI images
