Anabolic resistance does not explain sarcopenia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, compared with healthy controls, despite reduced mTOR pathway activity [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundAgeing and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are risk factors for skeletal muscle loss. We investigated whether anabolic resistance to feeding might underlie accelerated muscle loss in older people with T2DM and whether dysregulated mTOR ...

Comparison of volumetric and areal bone mineral density in CT and scout scans using spectral detector technology

European Radiology Experimental, 2023
Background To determine whether denoised areal bone mineral density (BMD) measurements from scout scans in spectral detector computed tomography (CT) correlate with volumetric trabecular BMD for opportunistic osteoporosis screening.

Texture analysis of vertebral bone marrow using chemical shift encoding–based water-fat MRI:a feasibility study [PDF]

, 2019
Summary This feasibility study investigated the spatial heterogeneity of the lumbar vertebral bone marrow using chemical shift encoding–based water-fat MRI. Acquired texture features like contrast and dissimilarity allowed for differentiation of pre- and

A systematic review on the correlation between skeletal and jawbone mineral density in osteoporotic subjects [PDF]

, 2016
Objectives: The aim of this systematic review was to assess whether the systemic skeletal reduction of bone mineral density (BMD) that characterizes osteoporotic subjects is also associated with a reduction of BMD in the jawbones.

Concurrent validity of five prediction equations to evaluate fat percentage in a sports group expected to yield high performance from Medellín, Colombia

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2021
Introduction: No equations to predict the body composition of athletes from Medellín expected to have high performance have been constructed and, thus, decisions regarding their training and nutrition plans lack support.

Bone mineral density assessed by phalangeal radiographic absorptiometry before and during long-term growth hormone treatment in girls with Turner's syndrome participating in a randomized dose-response study [PDF]

, 2001
To assess bone mineral density (BMD) in girls with Turner's syndrome before and during long-term treatment with GH, longitudinal measurements using phalangeal radiographic absorptiometry were performed in 68 girls with Turner's syndrome.

Reproducibility of bone mineral density measurement in daily practice. [PDF]

, 2004
BACKGROUND: Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements are frequently performed repeatedly for each patient. Subsequent BMD measurements allow reproducibility to be assessed.

Fatty liver index associates with relative sarcopenia and GH/ IGF- 1 status in obese subjects [PDF]

, 2016
Recently the association between hepatic steatosis and sarcopenia has been described. GH/IGF-1 axis has been postulated to play a role in linking fatty liver and low muscle mass.

Photon-Counting CT Material Decomposition in Bone Imaging

Journal of Imaging, 2023
The accurate screening of osteoporosis is important for identifying persons at risk. The diagnosis of bone conditions using dual X-ray absorptiometry is limited to extracting areal bone mineral density (BMD) and fails to provide any structural ...
