ABSTRACT The second volume of Metabolic Bone Disease contains seven additional essays on bone and mineral metabolism. Despite the book's title, there is in many instances a scarcity of information on bone disease. Topics previously covered in the first volume do, however, make up for this deficit to some extent.The chapter on parathyroid physiology and

Abstract Bone is a complex organ that is highly metabolically active, particularly in children. Normal metabolism is dependent upon the three main elements, matrix, mineral and cells that are integral components of bone. In addition, there are several humoral factors that also influence bone.

Bone Metabolism in Celiac Disease
The Journal of Pediatrics, 2008To investigate the prevalence of both calcium metabolism alterations and bone defects in children with celiac disease (CD).We studied 54 untreated patients with CD (mean age, 7 years). We compared the serum concentration of calcium, magnesium, 25(OH)vitamin D3, alkaline phosphatase, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) of patients with CD with those of 60 ...

Imaging of Metabolic Bone Diseases
Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2008Osteoporosis is a serious public health problem. The incidence of osteoporotic fractures increases with age. As life expectancy increases, social costs associated with osteoporotic fractures will multiply exponentially. The early diagnosis of osteoporosis, thanks to evermore precise devices, becomes, therefore, fundamental to prevent complications of ...

Bone changes in metabolic bone disease
Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1995In order to secure the mechanical integrity of the skeleton bone undergoes constant renewal throughout life. This renewal process, bone remodeling, consists of the continuos removal of bone (bone resorption) followed by synthesis of new bone matrix and subsequent mineralization (bone formation).

Bone scintigraphy in metabolic bone disease
Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 1997The bone scan has well-recognized appearances in metabolic bone diseases, with its main clinical value found in focal conditions or the focal complications of disease. In clinical practice, the bone scan is most widely used to detect fractures in osteoporosis and pseudofractures in osteomalacia and to evaluate Paget's disease.

, 1994 Bone scintigraphy has traditionally been considered to be nonspecific and less reliable than radiography in the diagnosis of metabolic bone diseases. However, aided with the pinhole technique this test can often display some characteristic features in osteomalacia and systemic osteoporosis caused by seniscense and menopause.

Metabolic bone diseases encompass a group of disorders characterized by abnormalities in bone metabolism, structure, or mineralization. These disorders negatively impact overall health and quality of life and place individuals at high risk for fracture, which may increase morbidity and mortality.
