Amino Acid Intakes Are Associated With Bone Mineral Density and Prevalence of Low Bone Mass in Women: Evidence From Discordant Monozygotic Twins [PDF]
Although a higher protein intake, particularly from vegetable sources, has been shown to be associated with higher bone mineral density (BMD) the relative impact of specific amino acids on BMD and risk of osteoporosis remains to be determined ...

Prevalence of Low Bone Mass and Osteoporosis in Ireland: the Dual‐Energy X‐Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) Health Informatics Prediction (HIP) Project [PDF]
Osteoporosis is a common disease that has a significant impact on patients, healthcare systems, and society. World Health Organization (WHO) diagnostic criteria for postmenopausal women were established in 1994 to diagnose low bone mass (osteopenia) and ...

Direct effects of physical training on markers of bone metabolism and serum sclerostin concentrations in older adults with low bone mass [PDF]
BackgroundBoth gravitational loading and the forces generated by muscle contraction have direct effects on serum markers of bone metabolism. The object of this study was to examine the direct effects of a single session of resistance exercise or walking ...

Osteocyte β1 integrin loss causes low bone mass and impairs bone mechanotransduction in mice [PDF]
Background: The key focal adhesion protein β1 integrin plays an essential role in early skeletal development. However, roles of β1 integrin expression in osteocytes during the regulation of bone homeostasis and mechanotransduction are incompletely ...

DXA measurements in rett syndrome reveal small bones with low bone mass [PDF]
Abstract Low bone mass is reported in growth-retarded patients harboring mutations in the X-linked methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene causing Rett syndrome (RTT). We present the first study addressing both bone mineral density (BMD) and bone size in RTT.

Metabolomics-based profiles predictive of low bone mass in menopausal women
Osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder characterized by compromised bone strength and increased risk of fracture. Low bone mass and/or pre-existing bone fragility fractures serve as diagnostic criteria in deciding when to start medication for osteoporosis ...

Review of Fractures and Low Bone Mass in Children with Cerebral Palsy [PDF]
Children with cerebral palsy have an increased risk of fracture and low bone mass. A systematic review was carried out to identify the associated or risk factors. The role of bone mineral density measurement (particularly whole-body or distal femur) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and quantitative computed tomography is examined.

Body mass index and the risk of low bone mass–related fractures in women compared with men
Background: Body mass index (BMI) is inconsistently associated with the progression of low bone mass–related fractures. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to summarize the evidence regarding the relationship between BMI and the risk of ...

Risk factors of low peak bone mass in Indonesian women
Background: Osteoporosis occurred in 64% of Indonesian women aged 60-64 years. The risk of osteoporosis can be reduced by achieving optimal peak bone mass in ages 25-32 years. However, 33.4% women had low peak bone mass (LPBM).
