Relationship of lumbar vertebral volumetric bone mineral density with trunk muscle density assessed by quantitative computed tomography in maintenance hemodialysis patients

open access: yesRenal Failure
Background Sarcopenia due to abnormal muscle metabolism and osteoporosis due to abnormal bone metabolism are common complications in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between volumetric bone

Bone biology in aging periodontal and peri‐implant tissues

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontal disease is an age‐related chronic inflammatory condition leading to tooth loss. Dental implants are an option for replacement of lost teeth in older adults. However, age‐related changes to alveolar bone may have pathological implications for its role in supporting the dentition and dental implants.

Replacement of leisure-time sedentary behavior with various physical activities and the risk of osteopenia and osteoporosis: evidence from the UK Biobank

open access: yesJournal of Exercise Science & Fitness
Objective: Associations between sedentary behavior (SB) during leisure time and the risk of osteopenia and osteoporosis are inconclusive. We aimed to examine the impact of replacing sedentary time with equivalent durations of various physical activities ...

Population level data on aging in periodontal and peri‐implant health—Aging is not a contraindication for periodontal or peri‐implant therapy

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Global population aging is leading to a greater retention of natural teeth into later life and an increasing prevalence of dental implant therapy. Although advanced age has traditionally been regarded as a risk factor for compromised outcomes, population level evidence remains lacking.

Association between C-reactive protein-triglyceride glucose index and abnormal BMD in middle-aged and elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
Background and aimsBone loss is an irreversible physiological change occurring with age. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with poor bone health, and insulin resistance (IR) and inflammation are common pathologic mechanisms in T2DM and ...

Biomechanical comparison of the bone‐screw‐fastener to conventional cortical buttress screw in a simulated ex vivo model of equine midbody proximal sesamoid bone fracture repair

open access: yesVeterinary Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To compare implant failure and gap displacement characteristics of simulated medial mid‐body proximal sesamoid bone (PSB) fractures repaired with bone‐screw‐fasteners (BSF) or cortical screws (CS) in single or double screw configurations. Study design Ex vivo experimental study.

Effect of artificial gravity on calcaneal bone marrow adipose tissue and mineral content in female and male participants in 60 days of bed rest

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modulation of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) with prolonged inactivity was reported in haemopoietic but not in non‐haemopoietic bones. This prospective randomized controlled trial submitted 16 men and 8 women to 60 days of 6° head‐down‐tilt bed rest.

Assessing the relationship between Body Mass Index and Bone Mineral Density in a clinical-based sample of Vietnamese aged 20–50: A generalized linear regression analysis

open access: yesHuman Nutrition & Metabolism
Background: While some evidence has shown that the BMI component differentially influences bone mineral density (BMD), no studies have examined the association between BMI and BMD in Vietnamese adults.
