Modeling Pathways for Low Bone Mass in Children With Malignancies

Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2009
Children with malignancies have low bone mass. Pathways for metabolic bone disease were investigated in children with cancer by concomitantly assessing lifestyle, clinical, and biochemical predictors of bone mass. Forty-one children who were receiving cancer therapy for 61 weeks and 39 controls were studied.

Low Bone Mass in Past and Present Aboriginal Populations

1994
A slight and gradual loss of bone mass is characteristic of all aging primates, if they live long enough (Garn, 1970; Burr, 1980). Nevertheless, the observation of reduced bone mass among ancestral human skeletal remains is limited to relatively recent populations.

Patients on injectable diacetylmorphine maintenance have low bone mass

Drug and Alcohol Review, 2010
Risk factors for osteoporosis are prevalent in chronic heroin users who often start using opiates in their late teens. This study was the first to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD) in relatively young heroin-dependent patients on injectable heroin maintenance.Using cross-sectional design, BMD was assessed in a convenience sample of 19 patients (mean ...

Consensus of an international panel on the clinical utility of bone mass measurements in the detection of low bone mass in the adult population

Calcified Tissue International, 1996
Low bone mass, in the asymptomatic patient, predicts future fracture risk as well as high cholesterol or high blood pressure predicts the risk of heart disease or stroke. In patients without fractures, osteoporosis can be diagnosed based on the extent of reduction in bone mass below mean peak bone mass of healthy young individuals.

Prevalence of primary hyperparathyroidism among patients with low bone mass

Advances in Medical Sciences, 2012
Accelerated rate of bone turnover and increased resorption due to primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) result in osteopenia and an increase in the fracture risk. However, there are no data about the relative frequency of the PHPT in the subpopulation with the low bone mass.
