Serum ferritin levels and bone mineral density in the elderly
Background: Iron overload influences negatively on bone mineral density (BMD) but the results of studies regarding serum ferritin (SF) and BMD are conflicting.This study aimed to determine the association of SF and BMD in the elderly. Methods: All participants of the Amirkola cohort selected between 2011-2012, aged > 60 years were classified as high or normal (<200ng/ml) SF. BMD at femoral nec...
متن کاملComparing bone mineral density in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis

METHODS We measured bone mineral density at the hip, spine, and radius in 24 women with past or current major...
متن کاملPeak 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 density in healthy Kuwaiti women
Objective This study aimed to measure bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumber spine and femur regions in healthy adult Kuwaiti women, and to evaluate the influence of body size on BMD results. Methods Bone mass measurement was performed by dualenergy X-ray absorptiometry at the lumbar spine (L2-L4) and femur (four regions) of healthy ambulatory Kuwaiti females aged between 20 and 80 years. Bod...
