Low Bone Mineral Density and Associated Factors in Patients with Cystic Fibrosis: A Cross-Sectional Study
Background: Failure to maintain bone mass density is a major complication in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). This study was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of low bone mineral density (BMD) and also identifying associated risk factors in CF patients. Materials and Methods: Present study conducted on 59 CF patients aged 5-35 years referred to respiratory clinic of Masih Daneshvari Hospi...

OBJECTIVES To assess bone mineral density (BMD) in children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (NS) and normal glomerular filtration rate (GFR). METHODS Cross-sectional case-control study carried out on 50 children: 25 cases of NS (16 steroid-sensitive [SSNS] and nine steroid-resistant [SRNS] under follow up in the pediatric nephrology unit of Menoufia University Hospital, which is tertiary c...
متن کاملPrevalence of Low Bone Mineral Density in a Low-Income Inner-City Population
Bone mineral density (BMD) is an important factor linked to bone health. Little is known of the prevalence of low BMD and its associated risk factors in an urban underserved population. Between 2001 and 2004, we recruited 338 subjects who completed drug use and medical history questionnaires, underwent hormonal measurements, and underwent whole-body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) for ev...
متن کاملBone metabolism and bone mineral density in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
Methods Bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine and bilateral proximal femurs (dual energy x-ray absorptiometry) and bone metabolism markers {bone formation marker: serum bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP); bone resorption marker: serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase serum band 5 (TRAP5b)} were measured in 55 consecutive AIS subjects aged 10 to 18 years-old (mean: 15.6+/-1.7). BMD, bod...
متن کاملBone Mineral Density in Children with Relapsing Nephrotic Syndrome
AbstractBackground: Given the high relapse rate of disease in children with steroid dependent nephrotic syndrome and the osteoporotic effect of long periods of steroid therapy, this survey was performed to find the bone mineral status of these patients. Methods: Bone mineral density and content (BMD and BMC) were measured using Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry in 37 nephrotic children, six girl...
