Disuse Osteopenia

Current Osteoporosis Reports, 2010
It is not widely appreciated how deleterious prolonged periods of non-weight-bearing are to skeletal integrity. Rates of decline in humans exposed to prolonged spaceflight, for example, are about 10-fold greater than those observed in postmenopausal women and are associated with a significant loss of bone strength.

Radiographic Appearance of Osteopenia

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1991
The radiographic appearance of bone is the result of two physiologic processes: the resorption of bone and the remodeling of bone in response to the stresses applied to it. The relative rates of these two processes will determine the structural and, therefore, the radiographic appearance of the affected bone.

Osteopenia in Rett syndrome

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1997
Bone density analysis, dietary intake, and anthropometrics were compared in 20 subjects with Rett syndrome (RS), 25 normal control subjects, and 11 girls with cerebral palsy. Bone mineral density, bone mineral content, and spine (bone) mineral density were significantly reduced in the RS group.

Osteopenia in preterm infants

Archives of Disease in Childhood - Fetal and Neonatal Edition, 2012
In the newborn preterm infant a combination of inadequate reserves and increased loss of essential minerals is common and frequently compounded by difficulties in obtaining an intake sufficient to replace losses and restore reserves. Deficiencies in calcium and phosphate and disturbed balance between them are frequently encountered, and may lead to ...

The Laboratory Evaluation of Osteopenia

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1984
Osteopenia is being increasingly recognized as an important cause of morbidity and mortality, and as the cause of a massive health care expense. This realization, and a much greater understanding of mineral and bone metabolism, has resulted in an increase in the sophistication of diagnostic methods.

Osteopenia, Osteonecrosis, and Mastocytosis

JCR: Journal of Clinical Rheumatology, 1997
Systemic mastocytosis has been defined as an abnormal increase in mast cells in tissues other than the skin. We report an unusual case of systemic mastocytosis that was manifested by osteopenia and osteonecrosis, and was associated with pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

POSTMENOPAUSAL SCREENING FOR OSTEOPENIA

Rheumatology, 1992
Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements of bone mineral density (BMD) in the lumbar spine and femoral neck have been performed in 1000 consecutive women aged between 40 and 60 years referred for screening for osteopenia. A detailed history was taken from each woman that included relevant lifestyle parameters and known risk factors for ...

Assessment of Osteopenia at Autopsy

Medicine, Science and the Law, 1991
Osteoporosis is a common problem for the pathologist in the elderly female population where pathological fractures particularly of the neck of femur are frequent. Yet how should we assess osteoporosis at autopsy? This study reports on autopsy assessment of osteopenia, comparing our subjective findings of rib fracturability and vertebral compressibility

Osteopenia in juvenile diabetes

Calcified Tissue International, 1981
The bone mineral status of fifty-one children with diabetes mellitus was studied by single photon absorptiometry. The mean bone mineral content was 13% below values predicted by age, sex, height, and weight. Those children whose diabetes was one year or less in duration were as osteopenic as those whose diabetes was of longer duration.

Osteopoikilosis: A case with osteopenia

Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation, 2009
Osteopoikilosis is a benign osteosclerotic dysplasia of unknown origin, which is an inherited autosomal disorder. It is usually asymptomatic and may only be recognized on radiological examination. We report a 20-year-old man who suffers from back and shoulder pain during the routine physical examinations performed prior to the military recruitment ...
