[ 6 ] - Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry diagnostic discordance between Z-scores and T-scores in a young Iranian population
Background: Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) is considered the gold standard for non-invasive measurement of bone mass. T-scores and Z-scores are used to present the results of bone mass. The present study was designed to evaluate the discordance between T-scores and Z-scores calculated at a same level and its relation with age, gender and body mass index (BMI) in a representative sampl...
[ 7 ] - Association of the CTLA-4 1722TC polymorphism and systemic lupus erythematosus: a systematic review and meta analysis
