Disease-a-Month, 1987
Osteopenia in the elderly is responsible for 1.3 million fractures per year in the United States. The acute care costs associated with this disorder are between $6 and $10 billion dollars annually. Although much has been learned over the last few years of the factors that predispose patients to osteoporosis and how these factors may be avoided, the ...

Osteopenia and phenylketonuria
Pediatric Radiology, 1990Trabecular bone mineral content was assessed by quantitative computed tomography in eleven young adults with phenylketonuria who had been treated from early childhood with a diet restricted in natural protein and supplemented with amino acids, minerals and vitamins. There was a significant reduction in the bone mineral content of patients compared with

Radiographic Appearance of Osteopenia
Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1991The 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.

Clinical calcium, 2005
Under the current diagnostic criteria for primary osteoporosis, patients are diagnosed as having osteopenia if their bone density is between 70 and 80% of the average bone density of young adult women. Osteopenia is essentially a precursor for osteoporosis, and because prevention is the basis of osteoporosis treatment, halting the progression of ...

Corticosteroid-Induced Osteopenia
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1978Since the original description of Cushing's syndrome, it has been recognized that the prolonged maintenance of supraphysiologic levels of corticosteroids can produce severe bone loss.1,2Studies of patients with Cushing's syndrome have demonstrated that the great majority (80% to 90%) have greatly decreased bone mass, as determined by radiological and ...
