the present study investigated the possibility of replacing salamon with modified shotor diluent (msd) and egg yolk (ey) with low density lipoprotein (ldl) for chilled storage of ram semen. good quality semen (>80% progressive forward motility (pfm) of sperm) from 3 fertile rams was collected using an artificial vagina and pooled for each experiment. low density lipoprotein was extracted from f...

mineral density changes within six months of renal transplantation. increased bone turnover and low bone density in long-term survivors to kidney transplantation. Posttransplant bone disease: evidence for a high bone resorption state. mineral density in kidney transplant recipients and patients on hemodialysis: a comparison with healthy individuals. Comparison of alendronate and pamidronate on ...

Twenty eight term small for gestational age (SGA) infants and 18 term appropriate for gestational age (AGA) infants were studied prospectively to assess bone mineral density and cord serum zinc concentrations. Growth and nutritional status were evaluated, and bone mineral density was measured by dual energy x ray densitometry of the lumbar spine. Cord serum zinc, parathyroid hormone, osteocalci...

there have been a number of developments in screw design and implantation techniques over recent years, including proposal of an alternative trajectory entitled as cortical bone trajectory (cbt). cortical bone trajectory has been investigated in recent medical treatments as an alternative for screw fixation aimed at increasing purchase of pedicle screws in higher density bone. cbt screw inserti...

Low vitamin K nutritional status has been associated with increased risk of fracture, however inconsistent results exist to support the role of vitamin K on bone mineral density depending on ethnic difference and gender. Our objective was to determine vitamin K intake in Korean adults, examine correlation between vitamin K intake and bone mineral density. This study analyzed raw data from the f...

purpose low bone mass is a major health concern among young women nowadays due to sedentary lifestyle and lack of calcium rich food intake. therefore there is an increase in the incidence of lbm among young university women so our main purpose of study was to compare effects of exercise program and calcium supplements on bone mass in young women. methods this single blinded, cross sectional stu...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the evidence of low bone mineral density (BMD) in depression. Low BMD is a major risk factor for osteoporotic fractures and frailty. METHODS The searched database was Pubmed, Meta-analysis included human studies in men and women fulfilling the following criteria: (1) assessment of BMD in the lumbar spine, the femur or the total hip; (2) compari...
