Relative validity of bioelectrical impedance analysis in estimating body composition in women with overweight and obesity 2 weeks and 6 months postpartum

open access: yesFood & Nutrition Research
Objective: To investigate the relative validity of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) in estimating fat mass (FM) and fat free mass (FFM) with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) as reference method in women with overweight and obesity 2 weeks and

Bone biology in the elderly: clinical importance for fracture treatment

open access: yesInnovative Surgical Sciences, 2016
Age-related bone impairment often leads to fragility fractures in the elderly. Although excellent surgical care is widely provided, diagnosis and treatment of the underlying bone disorder are often not kept in mind.

DXA: state of the art [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Nowadays, dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most widely used technique for the measurement of bone density. In this article technical characteristics of DXA densitometers and their ways of functioning are reviewed.

DXA predictions of human femoral mechanical properties depend on the load configuration

open access: yes, 2013
The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of dual energy X-rays absorptiometry (DXA) areal bone mineral density (aBMD) measured in different regions of the proximal part of the human femur for predicting the mechanical properties of matched ...

Zoledronic acid: challenges and pitfalls amid rehabilitation in primary osteoporosis and beyond [PDF]

open access: yesBalneo and PRM Research Journal
Zoledronate (or zoledronic acid) represents a standard (guideline-based) approach in the area of anti-resorptive medication (namely, an annual 15-minute perfusion of 5 mg for os-teoporosis treatment), while the same drug (with doses/regimes variations ...

DXA in Adults and Children

open access: yes, 2013
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most widely used method of measuring areal bone mineral density (BMDa) in adults and children and provides precise results with very low doses of ionizing radiation.
