Normative data on mineralization density distribution in iliac bone biopsies of children, adolescents and young adults.
Bone mineralization density distribution (BMDD) as assessed by quantitative backscattered electron imaging (qBEI) in iliac crest bone biopsies has become in the last years a powerful diagnostic tool to evaluate the effect of metabolic bone diseases and/or therapeutic interventions on the mineralization status of the bone material. However until now, normative reference data are only available f...
متن کاملLow bone mass in children and adolescents.
Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mass and micro architectural alterations of bone tissue leading to enhanced bone fragility and increased fracture risk. Although research in osteoporosis has focused mainly on the role of bone loss in the elderly population, it is becoming increasingly clear that the amount of bone that is gained during growth is also an important determinant ...
متن کاملAssessing bone mass in children and adolescents.
Growing awareness that osteoporosis may have its antecedents in childhood has led to increasing interest in assessing bone mass in children and adolescents. Several noninvasive imaging techniques are currently available to measure properties of the growing skeleton, including bone mass, density, cross-sectional area, and microarchitecture. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most wide...
متن کاملChildhood bone mass acquisition and peak bone mass may not be important determinants of bone mass in late adulthood.
During childhood and adolescence, bone mass acquisition occurs primarily through skeletal growth. It is widely assumed that bone mass acquisition throughout childhood is an important determinant of the risk of osteoporosis in late adulthood; bone mass is thought to resemble a bank account in which deposits persist indefinitely. However, several well-controlled clinical studies suggest that incr...
متن کامل[Bone mineralization in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes].
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the occurrence of osteopenia and the prognostic factors of bone mass in a pediatric group with type 1 diabetes. METHODS The following parameters were analyzed in a group of 23 patients with type 1 diabetes aged 10.9 -/+ 2.9 years: bone mineral density, serum C peptide, glycosylated hemoglobin, serum calcium, serum alkaline phosphatase, serum phosphorus and calciuria. Cli...
