Bone Mineral Metabolism and Osteodystrophy in Uremia

Bone and Mineral Metabolism

Background: Evidence suggests that vitamin D status in adults is positively associated with calcium absorption fraction and inversely associated with serum PTH. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationships among vitamin D status, PTH, and calcium absorption in midpubertal boys and girls. Methods: Calcium absorption was measured by using a stable isotope method in 93 young adole...

Bone metabolism and bone mineral density in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

Methods Bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine and bilateral proximal femurs (dual energy x-ray absorptiometry) and bone metabolism markers {bone formation marker: serum bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP); bone resorption marker: serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase serum band 5 (TRAP5b)} were measured in 55 consecutive AIS subjects aged 10 to 18 years-old (mean: 15.6+/-1.7). BMD, bod...
