Reproducibility of bone mineral density measurement in daily practice.
BACKGROUND Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements are frequently performed repeatedly for each patient. Subsequent BMD measurements allow reproducibility to be assessed. OBJECTIVE To examine the reproducibility of BMD by dual energy x ray absorptiometry (DXA) and to investigate the practical value of different measures of reproducibility in a group of postmenopausal women. METHODS Ninety f...

Background: Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements are frequently performed repeatedly for each patient. Subsequent BMD measurements allow reproducibility to be assessed. Objective: To examine the reproducibility of BMD by dual energy x ray absorptiometry (DXA) and to investigate the practical value of different measures of reproducibility in a group of postmenopausal women.

متن کاملEvaluation of Bone Mineral Density in Perimenopausal Period
Background: The menopausal transition called perimenopause, happens after the reproductive years, and isspecified with irregular menstrual cycles, perimenopause symptoms and hormonal changes. Women going throughperi menopausal period are vulnerable to bone loss.Osteoporosis is one of the most common debilitating metabolic bone diseases ,especially in the women almostaround 50 years .This study ...
متن کاملMeasurement of Bone Mineral Density in Children With Cancer
To the Editor: The article by Aldhafiri et al1 raises several clinically relevant issues. As addressed in the principle objective given in the study, measurement of bone mineral density in children by dualenergy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) requires adjustment for height and weight, therefore providing validation of our observations reported in 2009.2 Secondly, it is important to establish local ...
متن کاملSerum ferritin levels and bone mineral density in the elderly
Background: Iron overload influences negatively on bone mineral density (BMD) but the results of studies regarding serum ferritin (SF) and BMD are conflicting.This study aimed to determine the association of SF and BMD in the elderly. Methods: All participants of the Amirkola cohort selected between 2011-2012, aged > 60 years were classified as high or normal (<200ng/ml) SF. BMD at femoral nec...
