Contributions of lean mass and fat mass to bone mineral density: a study in postmenopausal women
BACKGROUND The relative contribution of lean and fat to the determination of bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women is a contentious issue. The present study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that lean mass is a better determinant of BMD than fat mass. METHODS This cross-sectional study involved 210 postmenopausal women of Vietnamese background, aged between 50 and 85 years, w...
متن کاملage, weight and body mass index effect on bone mineral density in postmenopausal women
conclusions the findings indicated that older women with low bmi were at higher risk of low bone mass. body weight, bmi and aging may be important predictors of bmd, but they are not the only factors affecting bone loss. therefore, it is recommended to assess other risk factors with a larger number of patients. results the mean bmd of women older than 50 years compared to those younger than 50 ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Body Pump Training on Bone Mineral Density and Balance in Postmenopausal Women
Abstract Introduction and aim: Studies has shown that increases bone mineral density (BMD) loss after menopause in women; On the other hand, physical activity is an important factor in preventing osteoporosis and fractures associated with it. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of 6 months low-load very high-repetition resistance training (body pump) on BMD and balance in postme...
متن کاملLow bone mineral density and fracture burden in postmenopausal women.
BACKGROUND The study objectives were to determine fracture rates in relation to bone mineral density at various central skeletal sites, using the World Health Organization definition for osteoporosis (T-score -2.5 or less), and to contrast fracture patterns among women 50 to 64 years of age with those among women 65 years of age and older. METHODS Historical cohort study with a mean observati...
متن کاملOral statins and increased bone-mineral density in postmenopausal women.
Experimental evidence suggests that the cholesterol-lowering drugs statins increase bone formation. We report a significant increase of bone-mineral density associated with taking statins in postmenopausal women.
