Abstract:

Bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD), measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry are used clinically to diagnose osteoporosis and estimate risk for fragility fractures. Bone mineral explains up to 70% of bone strength; however, it does not take into account bone geometry. Mechanical Response Tissue Analysis is a method of non-invasively measuring the bending stiffness (EI) of bone which is determined by the product of Young's modulus of elasticity (E) and the areal cross sectional moment of inertia (I). The aim of the current study was to determine if high intensity strength tr

Muscle strength is assumed to be closely related with BMD, the so called determinant of bone strength, however, new methods for bone strength measurement are arising. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD), muscle strength and natural frequency of the radius in the dominant and non-dominant arm in healthy and osteopenic individuals aged between 50-70 years. Sixty sedentary male (thirty healthy and thirty osteopenic) participated this study. Bone mineral density assessment was performed by dual x-ray absorbtiometry (DEXA) and quantitative

Abstract:

Bone drilling is an essential part of many orthopaedic surgical procedures, including those for internal fixation and for attaching prosthetics. Drilling into bone is a fundamental skill that can be both very simple, such as drilling through long bones, or very difficult, such as drilling through the vertebral pedicles where incorrectly drilled holes can result in nerve damage, vascular damage or fractured pedicles. Also large forces experienced during bone drilling may promote crack formation and can result in drill overrun, causing considerable damage to surrounding tissues. Therefore, it is

Abstract:

Bone mineral density (BMD) is a reflection of the action of osteoblasts compared to osteoclasts. An imbalance in the activity of osteoblasts or osteoclasts, results in bone disease such as osteoporosis caused by overactive osteoclasts. BMD is influenced by genetic and environmental factors as demonstrated through twin studies, association studies and linkage analysis (Ralston, 1999). Several polymorphisms involved in the determination of BMD have been identified, with Vitamin D receptor and Collagen Type 1 showing reproducible associations. To identify genes influencing BMD two distinct st

Bone mineral density (BMD) is a highly heritable trait, indicating that genetic elements are partly responsible for variation in osteoporosis risk.

Three strategies were used: i) a selected sample of postmenopausal women with high (z ~ 1.5, n = 1,055) or low (z≥1.5, n = 900) hip BMD [as measured by Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)] were used for GWA, followed by replication in an unsel

Introduction: The benefits of regular exercise on skeletal health have been well-documented in terms of stimulation of bone accrual and bone maintenance. Medium-impact sports activities such as running have been demonstrated to exert site-specific enhancement of bone mass in the lower appendicular skeleton. However, elite female runners engaged in high intensity training and sports activity may also be at risk of amenorrhea and low bone mineral density (BMD) resulting from inadequate caloric intake.

INTRODUCTION: Osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures represent an enormous health burden and economic cost for most societies in the world, and future projections forecast their steady increase over the next few decades.

Low bone mineral density (BMD) is one of the factors better correlated with fracture risk. The Global Burden of Disease Study 2010 estimated the worldwide health burden of 291
