Low Bone Mineral Density and Associated Factors in Patients with Cystic Fibrosis: A Cross-Sectional Study
Background: Failure to maintain bone mass density is a major complication in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). This study was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of low bone mineral density (BMD) and also identifying associated risk factors in CF patients. Materials and Methods: Present study conducted on 59 CF patients aged 5-35 years referred to respiratory clinic of Masih Daneshvari Hospi...
متن کاملDeterminants of reduced bone mineral density and increased bone turnover after kidney transplantation: cross-sectional study.
AIM To analyze bone metabolism and the risk factors of bone loss in kidney transplant recipients. METHODS The bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and radius was determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in 52 patients 8 days to 228 months after kidney transplantation. Total and bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), osteocalcin, procollagen, type I collagen telopeptid...
متن کاملAssociations of muscle force, power, cross‐sectional muscle area and bone geometry in older UK men
BACKGROUND Ageing is associated with sarcopenia, osteoporosis, and increased fall risk, all of which contribute to increased fracture risk. Mechanically, bone strength adapts in response to forces created by muscle contractions. Adaptations can be through changes in bone size, geometry, and bending strength. Muscle mass is often used as a surrogate for muscle force; however, force can be increa...
متن کاملMuscle strength and bone density in patients with different rheumatic conditions: cross-sectional study
AIM To explore the relationship between muscle strength and bone density in patients with different rheumatic diseases and to examine whether inflammatory arthritis was more harmful for muscle strength and bone loss than degenerative joint diseases. METHODS The study included 361 men and women with a mean±standard deviation age of 60.5±11.4 years and different rheumatic conditions: regional s...
متن کاملMuscle strength and areal bone mineral density at the hip in women: a cross-sectional study
BACKGROUND Muscle strengthening exercises are promoted for building and maintaining a healthy skeleton. We aimed to investigate the relationship between muscle strength and areal bone mineral density (BMD) at the hip in women aged 26-97 years. METHODS This cross-sectional study utilises data from 863 women assessed for the Geelong Osteoporosis Study. Measures of hip flexor and abductor streng...
