Increased Risk of Fragility Fractures among HIV Infected Compared to Uninfected Male Veterans
BACKGROUND HIV infection has been associated with an increased risk of fragility fracture. We explored whether or not this increased risk persisted in HIV infected and uninfected men when controlling for traditional fragility fracture risk factors. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Cox regression models were used to assess the association of HIV infection with the risk for incident hip, vertebra...
متن کاملPhysiologic frailty and fragility fracture in HIV-infected male veterans.
BACKGROUND The Veterans Aging Cohort Study (VACS) Index is associated with all-cause mortality in individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). It is also associated with markers of inflammation and may thus reflect physiologic frailty. This analysis explores the association between physiologic frailty, as assessed by the VACS Index, and fragility fracture. METHODS HIV-infecte...
متن کاملThyroid hormone replacement one day before 131I therapy in patients with well-differentiated thyroid cancer
Objective: The current study aimed to determine the efficacy of radioiodine-131 (131I) ablation therapy with thyroid hormone replacement one day before 131I administration in patients with well-differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). Methods: This retrospective study included 29 patients who underwent 131I therapies twice for DTC during 6-12 months. Since all the patients obviously had residual l...
متن کاملExcessive thyroid hormone replacement therapy.
BACKGROUND Excessive thyroid hormone replacement carries the potential for serious long-term metabolic complications (e.g., accelerated osteoporosis). The increased bioavailability of commercially available products, along with improved laboratory assays for measuring thyrotropin (TSH), has led to an increased chance of actual or detected iatrogenic hyperthyroxinemia. The purpose of this study ...
متن کاملeffects of growth hormone replacement therapy on thyroid function tests in growth hormone deficient children
there are numerous, often contradictory reports on the effect of growth hormone (gh) therapy on thyroid function. these reports prompted us to evaluate the impact of gh therapy on thyroid function in previously euthyroid children with gh deficiency. twenty five clinically and biochemically euthyroid children with gh deficiency were studied. a thyroid profile (t4, free t4, t3 and tsh) was perfor...
