متن کاملRenal osteodystrophy in hemodialysis patients.
Patterns of bone loss in the axial and appendicular skeleton were studied in 88 chronic hemodialysis patients (59 males and 29 females) and 60 normal volunteers (30 males and 30 females). The hemodialysis patients were properly medicated with phosphate binders and 1 alpha-OH D3 where necessary. The metacarpal index (MCI), sigma gray scale/diameter (sigma GS/D) and bone mineral content (BMC) wer...
