Comparative Study of the Accuracies and Efficiencies of Dual-layer Spectral CT, QCT, and DXA for Osteoporosis Diagnosis

CT Lilun yu yingyong yanjiu
Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare the accuracies and efficiencies of dual-layer spectral computed tomography (CT), quantitative CT (QCT), and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in diagnosing osteoporosis. Methods: From January to October,

Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Compared with Anthropometry in Relation to Cardio-Metabolic Risk Factors in a Young Adult Population: Is the 'Gold Standard' Tarnished?

PLoS ONE, 2016
Background and aimsAssessment of adiposity using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) has been considered more advantageous in comparison to anthropometry for predicting cardio-metabolic risk in the older population, by virtue of its ability to ...

Waist‐to‐height ratio and renal dysfunction as independent correlates of low handgrip strength in patients with type 2 diabetes

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
In 1,468 patients with type 2 diabetes, central obesity (WHtR >0.5) neutralizes the protective effects of higher BMI on muscle strength. Concurrently, visceral adiposity and CKD impose an additive threat, maximizing low handgrip strength risk (aOR = 1.74). Combining WHtR and renal tracking optimizes clinical sarcopenia screening.

Evaluating 20% and 40% Inclusion of Sugary Former Foods in Pig Diets: Effects on Growth Performance, Feeding Behaviour, Carcass and Meat Quality Traits

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Former food products (FFP) are food industry leftovers that can be used as feed ingredients. We investigated the effects of sugary FFP on growth, feeding behaviour, carcass and meat quality of pigs fattened to a heavy weight. Three inclusion levels were tested: 0% (FFP‐0 = control), 20% (FFP‐20) and 40% (FFP‐40) FFP in grower (20–60 kg BW ...

Osteoporosis and Periodontitis: Two‐Way Epidemiological and Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review investigates the main mechanistic pathways connecting local periodontitis to systemic osteoporosis. Seven interconnected mechanisms are identified. ABSTRACT Osteoporosis and periodontitis are highly prevalent, chronic inflammatory diseases that constitute a major global health burden.

Associations Between Body Composition and Metabolic Health in Children With Obesity

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Childhood obesity is an increasing public health problem with heterogeneous metabolic health outcomes. In children, distinguishing differences in body composition between individuals with metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) and those with metabolic syndrome (MS) may be useful for understanding the impact of body composition on metabolic health.

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.

Beyond Deterministic Fetal Programming: Intrauterine Exposures and the Multifactorial Origins of Adiposity

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excess adiposity is not a recently developed problem but has existed since at least the upper Paleolithic, allowing evolutionary selection pressures to adapt the physiology of the pregnant woman and the feto‐placental unit for maternal and fetal protection.

Precision or Paradox? AI‐Driven Adiposity Imaging in Women With Overweight and Obesity: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) enables automated, high‐throughput adiposity quantification, offering refined risk stratification for women with overweight and obesity. We systematically reviewed and meta‐analyzed studies evaluating AI‐based segmentation of visceral, subcutaneous, and total fat in adult women populations (BMI: 25–29.9 and ≥ 30 kg/
