The relationship between adiposity, bone density and microarchitecture is maintained in young women irrespective of diabetes status [PDF]
, 2017 Background: The relationship between bone health and adiposity and how it may be affected in people with chronic metabolic conditions is complex. Methods: 17 women with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and 9 age-matched healthy women with a median ...

Evaluation of Skinfolds Based Predictive Equations for Estimating Body Fat Percentage in Older Adults: A Comparison Using Digital Adipometer (Lipowise) and Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA). [PDF]
Clin ObesABSTRACT Accurate assessment of body fat percentage (%BF) is essential for predicting health risks in older adults, as age‐related changes affect fat distribution and measurement accuracy. While dual‐energy x‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a standard reference, it is costly and less accessible.

Differential forms and Clifford analysis [PDF]
, 2016 In this paper we use a calculus of differential forms which is defined using an axiomatic approach. We then define integration of differential forms over chains in a new way and we present a short proof of Stokes' formula using distributional techniques.

Reference Methods for Measuring Skeletal Muscle Mass: A Critical Perspective. [PDF]
J Cachexia Sarcopenia MuscleABSTRACT Skeletal muscle (SM) is an integral organ component in the pathophysiology of many acute and chronic diseases. But is there a ‘gold’ standard or accepted reference method for quantifying the amount and composition of human SM mass? Exploring that question led us to recognize the existence of a SM measurement paradigm that divides methods into ...

The influence of dairy consumption, sedentary behaviour and physical activity on bone mass in Flemish children : a cross-sectional study [PDF]
, 2015 Background: This cross-sectional study aimed to look for an association in young children between whole body bone mineral content (BMC) and areal bone mineral density (aBMD) and dairy consumption as well as sedentary behaviour (SB) and physical activity (

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Bone tumours present significant challenges for affected patients, as multimodal therapy often leads to prolonged physical limitations. This is particularly critical during childhood and adolescence, as it can negatively impact physiological development and psychosocial resilience.

Dirac-K\"ahler approach connected to quantum mechanics in Grassmann space [PDF]
, 1999 We compare the way one of us got spinors out of fields, which are a priori antisymmetric tensor fields, to the Dirac-K\"ahler rewriting. Since using our Grassmann formulation is simple it may be useful in describing the Dirac-K\"ahler formulation of ...
