Canal-to-Bone Ratio as an Independent Predictor of Hip Bone Mineral Density Scores: A Retrospective Analysis [PDF]
Background: Hip fractures are a major consequence of osteoporosis. While dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the gold standard for bone mineral density (BMD), radiographic indices may complement DXA. The canal-to-bone ratio (CBR)—the intramedullary

Using the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging to examine the association between tooth loss and hip bone mineral density [PDF]
IntroductionGiven the care gap for osteoporosis among Canadians, in part due to barriers limiting access to a diagnostic bone density scan, this study investigated the association between number of teeth and bone mineral density (BMD) to help identify ...

Trabecular bone score in the hip: a new method to examine hip bone microarchitecture-a feasibility study. [PDF]
Our study found, in older adults who are residents of long-term care facilities, assessing hip microarchitecture with DXA-derived bone texture score may serve as a supplement to bone mineral density to improve fracture prediction and to facilitate decision-making for pharmacological management.Many patients with high fragility fracture risk do not have

Comparing the Accuracy of Morphometric and Morphological Criteria of Hip Bone in Gender Determination [PDF]
Background: A primary aim of forensic medicine is gender determination. Although hip is the optimal bone for this purpose, different determining criteria of this bone do not have the same accuracy. This is important in conditions that only parts of hip

Prediction of Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Adaptation in Pelvis–Femur Model with Hip Arthroplasties
The prediction of bone remodeling behaviour is a challenging factor in encouraging the long-term stability of hip arthroplasties. The presence of femoral components modifies the biomechanical environment of the bone and alters the bone growth process ...
