Calcium supplementation and postmenopausal bone loss.
A series of 103 early postmenopausal women completed a questionnaire about their dietary calcium intake and were then divided into three groups: those with an intake below 550 mg/day, those with an intake between 550 and 1150 mg/day, and those with an intake above 1150 mg/day. Thereafter they were given a daily supplement of 500 mg calcium for two years and had their bone mineral content measur...
متن کاملEarly postmenopausal bone loss in hyperthyroidism.
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of hyperthyroidism on bone in relation to the menopausal state. METHODS Fifty-nine hyperthyroid (HYPER), 40 hypothyroid (HYPO), and 51 control euthyroid (EUTH) women were studied. Bone mineral density (BMD) was assessed by dual X-rays absorptiometry (DXA) at the lumbar spine, and at the femoral neck. A multi-site QUS device evaluated speed of sound (SOS) at t...
متن کاملCalcium-fortified beverage supplementation on body composition in postmenopausal women
BACKGROUND We investigated the effects of a calcium-fortified beverage supplemented over 12 months on body composition in postmenopausal women (n = 37, age = 48-75 y). METHODS Body composition (total-body percent fat, %FatTB; abdominal percent fat, %FatAB) was measured with dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. After baseline assessments, subjects were randomly assigned to a free-living control g...
متن کاملCalcium supplementation amongst postmenopausal women: Effect on serum calcium, phosphorus and magnesium level
This study assessed the effect of calcium supplementation towards the change in serum calcium, phosphorus and magnesium level. We carried out a randomized controlled trial of calcium supplementation in 113 postmenopausal women for 24 months period study. Subjects were randomly assigned into two groups. Subjects in Calcium Supplemented Group (CSG) were to take calcium supplement (1200 mg/day) wh...
متن کاملBone mineral density loss in postmenopausal onset rheumatoid arthritis is not greater than premenopausal onset disease
Background: Postmenopausal onset rheumatoid arthritis (post-RA) is expected to have greater bone mineral density (BMD) loss than premenopauasal onset (pre-RA) due to estrogen deficiency and aging. This study aimed to compare the BMD status of the two RA groups with age-matched non-RA controls. Methods: The patients with RA on follow-up examination were stratified according to age of onset. ...
