Combination of Micronutrients for Bone (COMB) Study: Bone Density after Micronutrient Intervention
Along with other investigations, patients presenting to an environmental health clinic with various chronic conditions were assessed for bone health status. Individuals with compromised bone strength were educated about skeletal health issues and provided with therapeutic options for potential amelioration of their bone health. Patients who declined pharmacotherapy or who previously experienced...
متن کاملBone density study of the proximal femur after hip arthroplasty with porous-coated implants
Progressive loss of bone mineral density around the femora! component of total hip replacement continues to pose a threat to long term prosthetic survival. A linear study was undertaken to measure bone mineral density on a monthly basis following total hip arthroplasty in 11 male patients. The opposite femur was used as the control measurement. Bone mineral density was unchanged at two mo...
متن کاملDeterminants of reduced bone mineral density and increased bone turnover after kidney transplantation: cross-sectional study.
AIM To analyze bone metabolism and the risk factors of bone loss in kidney transplant recipients. METHODS The bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and radius was determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in 52 patients 8 days to 228 months after kidney transplantation. Total and bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), osteocalcin, procollagen, type I collagen telopeptid...
متن کاملBone mineral density thresholds for pharmacological intervention to prevent fractures.
BACKGROUND Treatment intervention thresholds for prevention of osteoporotic fractures can be derived from reports from the World Health Organization (diagnostic criteria) and National Osteoporosis Foundation (treatment criteria). It is not known how well these thresholds work to identify women who will fracture and are therefore candidates for treatment interventions. We used data from the Nati...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Repair of Bone Defect after Bone Marrow Stromal Cell Transplantation in Rat
Background & Objective: Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) are multipotent stem cells that can proliferate and differentiate into osteogenic cells . T his study aimed to investigate the effects of BMSC transplantation for the repair of bone defects in the rat. Materials & Methods : Twenty-eight male adult rats were divided into 4 groups. Group 1 ( control group) received no treatment after the...
