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 ...

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.

Skeletal sarcoidosis with osteopenia

Metabolic Bone Disease and Related Research, 1981
Diffuse osteopenia is not generally recognized as a radiological manifestation of skeletal sarcoidosis. Furthermore, the pathologic correlates of the skeletal abnormalities in sarcoidosis are poorly characterized. We quantitated the histomorphometric parameters of bone formation and resorption in a transiliac crest biopsy specimen from a patient with ...

Diagnosis and treatment of osteopenia

Reviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders, 2010
Osteopenia is a term to define bone density that is not normal but also not as low as osteoporosis. By definition from the World Health Organization osteopenia is defined by bone densitometry as a T score -1 to -2.5. There are many causes for osteopenia including calcium and vitamin D deficiency and inactivity.

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.

Differential Diagnosis of Osteopenia

Hospital Practice, 1978
Differentiating the demineralizing bone diseases, especially osteoporosis from osteomalacia, is difficult but clinically rewarding, since the latter is highly treatable. Bone biopsy can detect the 20% of osteoporotic patients who also have osteomalacia.

[Secondary osteopenia. Iatrogenic causes of osteopenia].

Vnitrni lekarstvi, 1993
The author investigated during the past 17 years 595 patients with iatrogenic damage of bone mineralization, incl. 302 patients where the disorder developed after drugs and 293 where osteopenia developed after surgery. In demineralizations after the use of drugs in the first place corticoids participate, to a smaller extent non-thiazide diuretics and ...

Corticosteroid-Induced Osteopenia

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1978
Since 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 ...
