BACKGROUND In elderly women, there is estrogen reduction which causes parathyroid depression and results in decreased absorption of vitamin D experiences the aging process. This leads to increased susceptibility one metabolic diseases, osteoporosis. One risk factors for osteoporosis nutritional status can be assessed through bmi waist circumference. study determines relationship between circumf...

UNLABELLED Aims/Introduction:  To estimate nutritional risk factors for osteoporosis in patients with type 2 diabetes, bone mineral density, homocysteine level, and intakes and levels of Hcy-related vitamins including folate, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 were analyzed in a cross-sectional study. MATERIALS AND METHODS   Lumbar spine and femoral neck bone mineral density, serum concentrations of ...

Osteoporosis (low bone strength) and sarcopenia (low muscle mass, strength and/or impaired function) often co-exist (hence the term 'sarco-osteoporosis') and have similar health consequences with regard to disability, falls, frailty and fractures. Exercise and adequate nutrition, particularly with regard to vitamin D, calcium and protein, are key lifestyle approaches that can simultaneously opt...

Musculoskeletal deficits are among the most commonly reported extra-intestinal manifestations and complications of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), especially in those with Crohn’s disease. The adverse effects IBD on bone muscle multifactorial, including direct underlying processes, nutritional deficits, therapeutic effects. These factors also indirectly impact by interfering regulatory pathwa...

Bariatric surgery is recognized as a highly effective therapy for obesity since it accomplishes sustained weight loss, reduction of obesity-related comorbidities and mortality, and improvement of quality of life. Overall, bariatric surgery is associated with a 42% reduction of the cardiovascular risk and 30% reduction of all-cause mortality. This review focuses on some nutritional consequences ...

Interactions among physiological pathways associated with osteoporosis and sarcopenia are thought to contribute the onset of frailty. The International Conference on Frailty Sarcopenia Research Task Force thus met in March 2020 explore how emerging interventions manage fracture older adults may reduce frailty, disability, morbidity, mortality population. Both pharmacological non-pharmacological...

COPD is a chronic disease of the lungs, but heterogeneous with respect to clinical manifestations and disease progression. This has consequences for health risk assessment, stratification and management. Heterogeneity can be driven by pulmonary events but also by systemic consequences (e.g. cachexia and muscle weakness) and co-morbidity (e.g. osteoporosis, diabetes and cardiovascular disease). ...
