Bone mass and body composition traits are genetically programmed, but the timing and gender and site specificities of their heritability are unclear. Mother-child correlations of bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content, lean mass, and fat mass were studied in 169 premenopausal mothers and their 239 children. Heritability estimates of lean mass, fat mass, BMD, and area were derived f...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate bone mineral density among patients with neuromuscular scoliosis secondary to quadriplegic cerebral palsy. METHODS This was a descriptive prospective study in which both bone densitometric and anthropometric data were evaluated. The inclusion criteria used were that the patients should present quadriplegic cerebral palsy, be confined to a wheelchair, be between 10 and 20...
Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements from different manufacturers provide different bone mineral density (BMD) values and derived T-scores and Z-scores. These differences result partly from technical differences in the algorithms for the determination of bone mineral content and bone area and partly from the use of different manufacturer-derived reference databases. The present s...
Relationship between thoracic kyphosis, bone mineral density, and postural control in elderly women.
OBJECTIVES To verify the relationship between the angle of thoracic kyphosis, bone mineral density, and postural control in elderly women. METHODS Through a cross-sectional study, 95 elderly participants were subdivided into four groups according to the thoracic kyphosis angle (obtained by the flexicurve method) and to bone densitometry results. On the force platform and through the dynamic t...
OBJECTIVES We developed clinical guidelines for the management of bone health in Rett syndrome through evidence review and the consensus of an expert panel of clinicians. METHODS An initial guidelines draft was created which included statements based upon literature review and 11 open-ended questions where literature was lacking. The international expert panel reviewed the draft online using ...
background celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder which causes malabsorption in genetically susceptible patients who consume gluten. celiac disease is not limited to the gastrointestinal system, and exhibits different signs and symptoms in other organs. malabsorption of calcium and vitamin d can cause osteomalacia and secondary hyperparathyroidism. celiac disease is no longer a rare disease a...
Background: This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of physical exercise on bone mineral density (BMD), lean body mass (LBM) and bone biomarkers in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia on chemotherapy. Methods: forty-six leukemic children were randomly assigned to two groups; exercise group (E) undergoing supervised mixed exercise program consisting of aerobic, resistance and flexib...
Dear Editor, Primary care physicians (PCPs) play a crucial role in the prevention, screening and treatment of osteoporosis (OP). A recently published Asian study (Choi et al., 2012) pointed out an alarmingly low rate of diagnosis (26.2 %) and treatment (12.8 %) of OP. In order to overcome and minimise the socioeconomic burden of osteoporotic fractures, much emphasis has to be placed on boosting...
Noninvasive and/or nondestructive techniques can provide structural information about bone, beyond simple bone densitometry. While the latter provides important information about osteoporotic fracture risk, many studies indicate that bone mineral density (BMD) only partly explains bone strength. Quantitative assessment of macrostructural characteristics, such as geometry, and microstructural fe...
OBJECTIVE Evaluate the performance of FRAX®, with and without bone mineral densitometry (BMD), in predicting the occurrence of fragility fractures over 10 years. METHODS Participants aged ≥40 years at baseline, with a complete set of data and a minimum of 8.5 years of follow-up were identified from three cohorts (n=2626). Ten-year fracture risk at baseline were estimated with FRAX® and assess...
