Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry and Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis are Beneficial Tools for Measuring the Trunk Muscle Mass of Patients with Low Back Pain

Spine Surgery and Related Research, 2019
Introduction: Limb muscle mass measurement using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of sarcopenia. Moreover, bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is also recognized as a beneficial tool considering ...

Impact of age at first visit on glycolipid metabolism, bone metabolism, and fertility potential in patients with Klinefelter syndrome

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Classic Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is characterized by one extra X chromosome (47, XXY), leading to hypergonadotropic hypogonadism and higher risk of alterations in glycolipid homeostasis, cardiovascular diseases, and low bone mineral density. Most frequently, KS is diagnosed in adulthood because of infertility.

Evaluation of iNSiGHT VET DXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) for assessing body composition in obese rats fed with high fat diet: a follow-up study of diet induced obesity model for 8 weeks

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 ...

Muscle Strength and Power Changes With Gender‐Affirming Hormone Therapy

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Androgen receptors are highly expressed in upper body muscles, but changes in maximal muscle strength and power in major upper body muscles have not been investigated during gender‐affirming hormone therapy (GAHT). Objective To assess prospective changes in maximal muscle strength and muscle power from before and after 1 year of ...

Bone Health in Young Adults with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus in South India

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism
Introduction: Patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) have a higher lifetime fracture risk. The rising obesity incidence in T1DM is causing hybrid diabetes. There is scarce data of bone health and body composition in T1DM from India.

Urinary Calcium and Phosphorus Excretion in Vitamin D‐Sufficient Preterm Infants: Establishing Age‐Specific Normative Data

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim This study evaluated urinary calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) excretion in very low birth weight infants ( < 1500 g, VLBW) without severe morbidity, treated with methylxanthines. Methods Eighty‐one VLBW infants were analysed. Urinary Ca and P and their creatinine ratios were measured biweekly until day 56.

Impact of adding distal forearm DXA to hip and spine measurements on DXA report

Journal of Biomedical Graphics and Computing, 2013
Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the gold standard modality for non-invasive diagnosis of osteoporosis but controversy exists about the optimal site (s) for bone mineral density (BMD) measurement. The objective was to find out impact of adding distal forearm BMD to hip and spine measurements on final diagnosis of a DXA study.

Efficacy and Safety of Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF) and Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) Followed by TAF in Chronic Hepatitis B Patients of East Asian Ethnicity Following 5 Years of Treatment

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In East Asian patients with chronic hepatitis B, rates of virologic suppression through 5 years were high in those treated continuously with tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) and in those switched from tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) to TAF. Improved renal and bone safety was observed in patients switching from TDF to TAF.
