Low bone mass in premenopausal chronic dieting obese women [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2004
Obese premenopausal women are thought to be at low risk for osteoporosis due to increased body weight and effects of estrogen on weight-bearing bone.To examine the effect of restrained eating on obese women, we examined bone mineral density (BMD) and content (BMC) of the spine and femur in obese women who were restrained eaters, with emphasis on the ...

Bone Health in Children With Risk Factors for Low Bone Mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Abstract Purpose: To describe clinical and biological characteristics of pediatric patients with at least one risk factor (RF) for low bone mass for chronological age (LBMca)/childhood osteoporosis (cOP) and to assess its influence on bone mineral density (BMD).Methods: Patients between 2 and 20 years of age with at least 1 RF were recruited ...

Intake of dehydrated nopal (Opuntia ficus indica) improves bone mineral density and calciuria in adult Mexican women

open access: yesFood & Nutrition Research, 2013
Background: The intake of dehydrated nopal (DN) at a high stage of maturity along with high calcium content could improve bone mineral density (BMD) and calciuria and thus prevent osteoporosis.

The behavior of adaptive bone-remodeling simulation models [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The process of adaptive bone remodeling can be described mathematically and simulated in a computer model, integrated with the finite element method. In the model discussed here, cortical and trabecular bone are described as continuous materials with ...

Diagnosis of low bone mass in CKD-5D patients [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Nephrology, 2016
Currently, there is no consensus whether dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) or quantitative computed tomography (QCT) can be used to screen for osteoporosis or osteopenia in CKD-5D patients. This study uses iliac bone histology, the "gold standard" for bone volume evaluation, to determine the utility of DXA and QCT for low bone mass screening in ...

High prevalence of low bone mass in thalassaemia major [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, 1998
Cooley's original description of β‐thalassaemia major included marked bone deformities as a characteristic feature. These were thought to be due to expansion of haemopoiesis attempting to compensate for the congenital anaemia. Regular blood transfusions from infancy prevents these skeletal problems. Nevertheless, symptoms due to bone disease frequently
