Skeletal fragility definition.
Strategies to reduce fracture risk must be based on the understanding of the mechanisms that underline the increased incidence of fractures with age and with bone diseases that reduce bone stock. There is evidence that in addition to bone minerals density, other factors influence bone strength. This study reviews the biomechanical aspects of age-related fractures, including the interacting role...
متن کامل3D Imaging Bone Quality: Bench to Bedside
Abstract Introduction Measuring the health of bone is important for understanding the pathogenesis, progression, diagnosis and treatment outcomes for fragility. At present the most common method for measuring bone health in a clinical setting is to assess skeletal mass. The current gold standard is dualenergy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) which models bones as 2D objects and measures areal bone mi...
متن کاملVariability in skeletal mass, structure, and biomechanical properties among inbred strains of rats.
The aim of this study was to assess the usefulness of the inbred rat model for studies of genetic influences on skeletal fragility. We characterized bone mass, geometry, and skeletal biomechanics in 11 inbred strains of rats. This study showed that considerable variation exists in bone structure, areal bone mineral density (aBMD), and fragility phenotypes among inbred strains of rats. Interesti...
متن کاملOsteoporosis Therapy: Bone Modeling during Growth and Aging
Remodeling-based bone resorption and formation are coupled on the same surface and contribute to calcium homeostasis, while modeling-based bone formation and resorption occur on different surfaces, such as during growth, to change skeletal shape; of importance, the aging skeleton can also include bone modeling (1, 2). The primary determinant of bone modeling is elastic deformation (strain) of t...
متن کاملExercise alters mineral and matrix composition in the absence of adding new bone.
The mechanical properties of bone are dictated by its amount, distribution and 'quality'. The composition of the mineral and matrix phases is integral to defining 'bone quality'. Exercise can potentially increase resistance to fracture, yet the effects of exercise on skeletal fragility, and how alterations in fragility are modulated by the amount, distribution and composition of bone, are unkno...
