Peak bone mineral density in Vietnamese women
SUMMARY: This cross-sectional study showed that peak bone mineral density in Vietnamese women is comparable to that in Caucasian women; however, the prevalence of osteoporosis in post-menopausal Vietnamese women was slightly higher than in Caucasian women. The age of achieving peak bone mass in Vietnamese women was between 26 and 30 years. INTRODUCTION: While peak bone mass and its determinants...
متن کاملBone mineral densities in normal Bangladeshi women
fracture. Several chronic medical conditions, medications, and life style factors affect bone mineral accrual. This study aims to evaluate the bone mineral densities and hip axis lengths in the local population. Materials and Methods: 336 normal Bangladeshi women age ranges 20 to 70 years had evaluation of their bone mineral densities (BMDs) by means of dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Results:...
متن کاملLow peak bone mineral density in healthy Lebanese subjects.
Osteoporosis is a major public health problem in Western countries and is projected to have a similar impact in the Middle East. It has been suggested that peak bone mineral density (BMD), a major determinant of osteoporotic fractures later in life, may be lower in this part of the world compared with the Western world. However, subjects have not been randomly selected or systematically screene...
متن کاملDelayed puberty and peak bone mass.
The accrual of bone mass during childhood and adolescence is a major determinant of peak bone mass (PBM), and thereby of the risk of osteoporotic fractures occurring in advanced age (1). The development of noninvasive techniques, such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), has made it possible to determine with precision and very low radiation exposure the pattern of bone mineral mass accum...
متن کاملPeak bone mass and bone mineral density correlates for 9 to 24 year-old Mexican women, using corrected BMD.
OBJECTIVE To determine the age of peak bone mass (PBM) in Mexican women and factors associated with both BMDa and corrected BMD (BMDcorr) at the femoral neck and the spine (L2-L4). MATERIAL AND METHODS Data on 461 women between 9 and 24 years old was used. An interview was performed and height and weight were measured. BMDa was measured by a densitometer and BMDcorr by the method proposed by ...
