Bone density, bone markers and bone radiological features in mastocytosis.
We examined the association between severity of disease in mastocytosis and skeletal manifestation and bone markers in 16 patients varying in extent of mastocytosis as determined by the urine excretion of methylimidazoleacetic acid. Both osteoporosis and osteosclerosis were found. Bone density in the hip was significantly higher (p < 0.05) in both men and women with an enhanced histamine metabo...
متن کاملBone markers and bone mineral density in Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
All bone formation markers were significantly lower in the patient group compared with the control group; BALP (p=0.002), PINP (p<0.001) and OC (p<0.001). Significantly lower values for the bone resorption markers CTX (p<0.001) and TRACP5b (p=0.002) were also observed, however, not for ICTP (p=0.087). The CTX/TRACP5b quotient (a suggested index of the osteoclast activity in relation to the numb...
متن کاملThe Effect of Bone Marrow Graft on Bone Healing: A Radiological and Biomechanical Study
Background: There are multiple methods for acceleration of bone healing. Bone marrow has been shown to contain osteoprogenitor cells. Objective: To determine the effect of percutaneous bone marrow injection on bone healing. Methods: 15 mature, 2-kg-weighing white New Zealand rabbits from both sexes were randomized into 3 groups: Group I: Only osteotomy of right radius was performed and a 5 mm b...
متن کاملeffects of glucocorticoid on bone metabolism markers and bone mineral density in rats.
statement of problem: glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis is characterized by a decrease in osteoblast numbers and a marked impairment of new bone formation. purpose: the ain of present study was to evaluate the effect of methylprednisolone acetate on bone metabolism and bone mineral density in rats. materials and methods: eighteen male sprague dawley rats (8 weeks old, weighting 180 gm) were r...
متن کاملBiochemical markers predictive for bone marrow involvement in systemic mastocytosis.
Systemic mastocytosis is characterized by bone marrow involvement, which requires a bone marrow biopsy for diagnostic work-up. We questioned whether bone marrow involvement could be predicted using biochemical markers. We selected patients with various symptoms suggestive of indolent systemic mastocytosis, of whom 63 ultimately had bone marrow involvement. Patients suspected of aggressive masto...
